Our older son has a nice and large gun safe in his garage, and he has a combo lock.
He has fellow hunters and workers, who live or did live in the Santa Rosa area that was devastated in the recent fire.
So far everyone he has contacted or heard about, lost everything in those safes, in the fire. Apparently, the temps were too high and the high temps lasted too long.
Somewhat on this subject. Many of us have go bags in case of earthquakes, floods or fires (welcome to California).
A friend who lives in hurricane/tornado Floriduh told us about people who lost the keys to their bank safety deposit boxes due to a hurricane or tornado.
He said that it was nightmare for these people, some with minimal ids to get into their bank safety deposit boxes and paying a big fee for having the boxes drilled open.
Now our safety deposit box key stays in our go bag.
That fire was really hot.
