In ordinary use it is a thin strip.

This service is free. The carrier will call ahead to arrange a delivery window, so someone will need to be home. The driver lowers it by liftgate to your curb or the end of your driveway. Freight drivers don't bring deliveries inside, up steps or into the garage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eTwo or three people with a stair-climbing appliance dolly can bring it indoors, or a local safe mover can do it for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eFrom there it takes two people and a stair-climbing hand truck to bring it in. At 20 inches wide it clears any standard doorway, and the white finish is meant to be seen, so it can live in a dressing room rather than a garage. Bolt it down through the four holes in the base once it is in place.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you'd like it brought inside and positioned, contact us after you order and we'll help you arrange it with a safe mover near you.

Hard drives, USB sticks, discs and film need an interior kept below 125°F, and this safe makes no such claim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eIt is not water rated. No claim is made. A house fire usually brings a great deal of water from the hoses, so keep papers in sealed bags inside if that matters to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eIt is not a long-gun safe. The interior is 27.25 inches tall, too short for a rifle or shotgun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eIt is not a UL burglary-rated safe. No burglary listing is claimed. Its California DOJ approval is a construction standard for home safes, not a burglary rating. Steel, bolts on three sides and an anchored base make it slow work for a thief, but it is a home safe, not a commercial one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOn the maker\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eAmerican Security make safes in Fontana, California, from small home units through to high-security commercial safes. The AM series is their home range, and the Plus is the version dressed for the inside of the house.
