Additional Features: Bolt-Down Kit
Installation Procedure
1. Choose a mounting location that is easily
accessible from both above and below.
2. Carefully position the template on the
location that you want to mount the safe.
3. Create the guide marks by pressing a sharp
tool through the circles at the four corners of
the template and into the mounting location.
4. Drill a hole (the diameter of the break-off bolt
shaft) through each guide mark.
5. Before attaching the safe, you should check
carefully that the 4 holes you have drilled
match up precisely with the holes that have
been pre-drilled in the bottom of the safe.
Note: On certain models, It may be necessary
to remove the rubber foot pads that are
screwed into the bolt-down holes at the
factory.
6. Once you have confirmed that the holes
are aligned and in the location you desire,
install the break-off bolts and washers from
underneath the mounting location (through
the furniture or shelf), and into the pre-drilled
holes in the safe.
7. Turn bolts until the screw heads break off.

Important: DON’T DRILL SAFE
Do not drill into the feet, bottom or any other
part of safe! Doing so will ELIMINATE THE FIRE
PROTECTION that has been designed into your
safe and invalidate all stated warranties.
Installing Your Safe
Certain models include a Bolt-Down kit with break-off bolts and a mounting
template for permanent mounting to a flat surface. Once the safe is installed
using the break-off bolts, it is permanent and cannot be easily removed.
Tools Required
4 Break-off Bolts (Supplied)
4 Washers(Supplied)
1 Mounting Template (Supplied)
1 Drill
1 Screwdriver

Important: SECURING TO FLOOR
Many consumers prefer to bolt their safe to the floor to
increase protection from theft and resistance to tipping.
If your safe was manufactured with bolt down holes pre-
drilled in the floor of the safe, bolting your safe to the
floor may provide additional theft deterrence.
If you have ANY QUESTIONS about how to accomplish
this, or are uncomfortable using the tools necessary
to complete this project, please check with your local
retailer, home center, or independent contractor.
