Browning/ProSteel fire safes offer similar protection against fire. They are
fire-r esistant, not fireproof. DO NOT ASSUME A FIRE-RESISTANT SAFE
WILL WITHSTAND ANY AND ALL FIRES — IT WILL NOT.
Browning/ProSteel fire-resistant safes are certified in a controlled test
environment that the safe’s interior temperature did not exceed 350° for
the amount of time and temperature exposure as stated on the door label
pla
ced on each safe. Different models of Browning/ProSteel safes have
different fire ratings, and a longer time or higher temperature rating
indicates more fire resistance compared to a safe with a lower rating. You
can improve your fire-resistant safe’s ability to protect your valuables from
fire by placing it in an appropriate location in your home. Follow the
instructions under “Placement of Your Safe” on page 3. A safe is just one
part of protecting your valuables. Adequate homeowner’s insurance
coverage should also be maintained.
