Looking for recommendations for a home safe. Would like it to hold about eight long guns and about a dozen handguns (plus 5,000 - 10,000 rounds), plus room for family documents, etc. It will be in the basement but will need to fit through a standard door frame (under 32" either width or depth) and be fire rated.

I have not yet done a lot of shopping but would appreciate any suggestions, things you'd wished you thought of, or insight from those of you who have a large home safe.

EDIT: For what its worth my budget is around 1-1.5K give or take. I'd like to spend less but don't want something cheap...hence look for advice first.

Most of the safes mfg today will have something to fit your needs. I am partial to the American Security BF (burglery / fire) series. AmSec is also the only mfg who offers a TL rated safe which are impressive too.

I would get one larger than you think you need. Buy once - cry once.
