Re: Recommendations on where to buy a safe

I've never dealt with The Safe Company, though I have been in to their showroom a while back. I've been dealing with Michael's Lock and Key for years now and have made all my safe purchases through them. Jay Reed at the Colleyville location off of Hwy 26 is my go-to for anything I need here locally. Have been a very pleased customer of theirs (for safes and other needs) for more than a decade now. Add to that their delivery guys are the best I've ever seen; very professional and have all the right tools to safely move safes across all types of surfaces (we went across tile and wood without issue).

Btw, I see Amsec has changed their “entry” level safes from BF to BFX. Better, more robust door locking system.

One piece of advise - buy bigger than you think you need. Seriously. Bigger. If you go with Amsec and their fireproof safes all of a sudden jewelry and personal papers will be there. And guns never multiply on their own. :clapping: :clapping: Seriously, bigger.
Just to clarify, the BF/BFX series is several steps above entry level, as the TF, SF, and NF are all lesser size/security models in their gun safe line. The BF/X series is the sweet spot though for value and protection for the average homeowner. I have a BF6030 that I've been very happy with. 1100 lbs. and very solid. Also have a smaller NF model inside a closet due to space constraints and have been equally pleased, though the finish out on the inside isn't quite as nice. Overall I'm sold on AMSEC as far as their RSC lines go.

I'll also add that the advice to buy bigger is always spot on.
