Do I take 600 lb plus safe upstairs to the bedroom (and up stairs and onto a new hardwood floor that I should finish up this weekend and God forbid get a scratch on the new floors in which case my wife may use one of my guns on me), or do I go for a bigger and heavier safe and take the easy way out and put it in the basement?
Will be far easier to go the basement route. Just bring the truck down back, open the double doors and wheel it in and lay in on the carpeted floor next to the wall somewhere.
Upstairs will be tricky. However, since we sleep upstairs and will have children up there as well, would prefer to keep firearms safe and secure in the bedroom next to my person.
Pic of the stairs to give you an idea of what I'm looking at if I go that route.
Looking at the smaller safes (smaller than the one I currently have) I almost get afraid that there won't be enough room if I go with a smaller one upstairs. However, I'm not sure how the steps will handle 1,000 plus pounds (for some reason, the thought of the safe tipping and falling over the railing while going upstairs has crossed my mind).
Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks
