I am not sure -- moisture is not a problem with mine-- I have some of those silca packs in the safe. I may get too hot-- I know it is fire proof but not heat proof

It is water and fire proof. We've been very happy with this safe at our non-profit.

Excellent safe for fire and water protection but not for security. Will prevent access by children, snoops, and amateur thieves. Experienced, capable thief will defeat both the combination lock and key lock, or just haul away. I keep the key in my safe for that reason. Recommend for important documents but not for valuables.

I doubt it would last more than an hour in a fire. It's a decent safe for the size and price.

I honestly don't know. All I can say is that it's a strong safe with a nice heavy door. The combo lock is easy to use and the 3 spoke handle makes it look pretty. Also they provide anchors to drill it into the ground. The safe is about 260 pounds.

No.But it really depends on where the safe is located. As long as its in a heated & cooled space it should be ok.

While this is a durable, all-steel safe, it is not listed as fire proof. If for no other reason, the open slot at the front would make it non-fire proof. See http://www.sentrysafe.com/Products/287/UC-039K_Drop_Slot_Safe for details--they only list the security icon. You could find a fire proof safe under their Fire-Safe category, and then see if it's available on Amazon. Best of luck!

I don't think so I don't remember reading it but the cost of it was so low I can't imagine it being fireproof. Sorry.

I think in the case of fire the key would open the safe. The key I have is metal and should open the mechanism.

Most fire extinguishers carry a UL rating. Most states require extinguishers to be UL listed before they can be sold to the public. "UL" stands for Underwriters Laboratory, a worldwide organization that researches and tests the safety of a variety of objects, including fire extinguishers. UL fire extinguisher ratings fall into two classes: Class A and Class B:C. A fire extinguisher typically carries both classes on its UL label. A UL rating may look like: 4A:60B:C. Class A refers to the amount of water the extinguisher is equivalent to; one "A" is equal to 1.25 gallons of water. The B stands for the square footage the extinguisher can handle when operated by a professional. The C indicates that the extinguisher can be used on electrical equipment.

No, I doubt this safe is "fireproof". A) because it is made of thin steel plate with no insulation. B) the manufacturer would cheerfully make that claim if it were fireproof. However, it is a wonderful way to lock my rifle/shotgun away from grandchildren who frequently visit my home.

It comes with a key ... A manual lock. But then if the safe is in a fire, getting it open is likely one of the last things you'll worry about. Cut it open. Pry it open. Whatever.
