Wasn't sure exactly where to put this..
Been telling myself I need to buy a better safe, beings I have a cheap stack on, which is pretty much just a box for a thief to carry everything away in. With the recent thread on stolen guns, it really inspired me to nut up and make the move.
I was checking out the Winchester safes from Tractor Supply, and was thinking of things I can do to improve it. I will definitely bolt it to the floor, with nice sturdy bolts, but what else can I do to make it difficult to pry the door open? I was thinking of welding a good size angle iron along the seam where it closes, to where you can't stick a pry bar from the front of safe, and the safe will be in corner so you can't get leverage from behind. Maybe also add a low profile latch with lock on the side where the angle iron will overlap, something to where you have just enough room between safe and wall to unlock it.
I've just been brainstorming ideas...just thinking of ways to give more piece if mind. Any thoughts?
