How secure is a vault door on a concrete room compared to a large safe?
Reminds one of the movie, “The Italian Job.”
I would think that a reinforced concrete vault would be more difficult to break into than a steel one.
I was looking into concrete when I built my safe, but I ended up making the exterior out of steel. It’s still a work in progress. The door weighs 1200 lbs. I still bolted it to the slab.
Where was Danny Ocean at the time?
Actually, Obama makes frequent fundraising stops in Hancock Park.

She lived there and we went to the same school. We never agreed on politics.She works for Boeing and always gives me on the inside information on what is happening.
The butler did it !
Hmm. We’ll be right over!
$10 milion dollars is a lot of money, to nearly everybody, to have on hand.
Since we don’t know who it was stolen from, it could be nearly anybody.
Is there a chance that this is drug money?
From what I've seen on tv, movies and read in the NYT, a 9mm semiautomatic with a high capacity magazine will blow the door to Ft. Knox open.
Pecunia non olet!
It was Colonel Mustard. I think the police should ask questions to people who had access to the house. The LAPD will be looking into this because of the amount of money and jewels that was taken.
Ahh, yes... The Secretary of Defense.
I was thinking about this brand which was mentioned on a previous thread about safes.

Well the time depends on where the safe is located. A large one with good door hinges that is bolted to a slab inside a closet or narrow corner is going to take a while longer. The worst case estimate on mine is around an hour with the right tools.

It wasn't even claimed to be just money. It was supposedly jewelry, cash and "other items".
I am going to bet that it is a scam and after some period the jewelry, actual value far less than claimed, will be sold.
The insurance company will do its best to wiggle out of this, and may well discover fraud.
