1. Find a suitable and convenient location for your safe. Empty all safe contents.
2. Locate the mounting hole cover plate on the inside floor of the safe. Remove the (6) screws
securing the plate and set aside. (Figure 1)
3. Remove the cover plate, gasket and cap, to reveal the mounting hole, and set aside for later
use. (Figure 2)
4. Tilt the safe backward and using a pencil or screwdriver, insert it into the mounting hole and
punch out the hole plug at the bottom of the safe. (Figure 3)
5. Place the safe in the desired location. Use a pencil or pen to mark the floor through the
mounting hole so you know where to drill. Move the safe aside. (Figure 4)
NOTE: If the floor is carpeted, cut a hole in the carpet (at least 1” diameter) to expose the wood or
concrete before drilling.
