SAFETY

  • Safe bodies and doors are extremely heavy thus SA Consumer Products Requires a minimum of two people to insure stability of the safe during installation. Always ensure proper installation, as laid out in this manual, and do not open the door with the safe on an uneven or unstable floor. Ignoring this could result in serious injury or death.
  • Keep a record of your security code in a secure place, away from children, and separate from your safe. You will need this information along with your proof of purchase to obtain technical assistance and replacement keys.

WEAPON STORAGE

  • If you choose to utilize this safe to store a weapon always follow proper weapon and local laws when storing a weapon.
    SA Consumer Products strongly recommends that you do not store loaded guns.
    Always follow the firearm safety rules set out by the firearm’s manufacturer.
    A Sanctuary Safe or any other firearm storage device cannot take the place of other safety procedures including advising children of the dangers of firearms.
    SA Consumer Products and its distributors of the Sanctuary Safes do not recommend, suggest, advise, promote, or otherwise condone the ownership or use of firearms. We believe the decision to own or use a firearm is a serious decision that should only be made by an adult who has carefully considered the risks and benefits of such a decision.

UNBOXING

WARNING: SAFES ARE HEAVY AND CAN BE UNSTABLE ON UNEVEN GROUND. PLEASE ENSURE EXTRA CAUTION WHEN DEALING WITH OR MOVING UNSECURED SAFES. WHILE UNBOXING BE SURE TO HAVE A SECOND PERSON HOLD AND STABILIZE THE SAFE TO KEEP IT FROM TIPPING, CAUSING INJURY, AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE SAFE AND SURROUNDING STRUCTURES.

Remove the packaging. If your safe is still on shipping feet you can simply lift the box up and off the safe once the strapping has been removed. If your safe does not have shipping feet you will need to carefully remove the box, ensuring not to damage the safe and/or injure yourself. You will want to have someone stabilize the safe when removing the cardboard and other packing material from underneath the safe.

INSPECTION

  • Make sure to inspect your safe for shipping damage before accepting delivery.
  • If you find any damage, please contact the delivery company (or carrier) immediately.
  • Any damage not noted upon delivery must be reported within fifteen (15) days or there will be no recourse. Any noted damage at the time of delivery must be resolved with the delivery company and/or retailer. Shipping damage is not warrantable by SA Consumer Products.

OPENING YOUR SAFE

  1. Locate the backup keys and single handle spoke inside the plastic bag hanging on the front of the safe.
  2. Install the single handle spoke by inserting into one of the threaded openings and twisting clockwise.
  3. Locate the keyhole on the safe door. Insert and turn the backup key clockwise from 9 to the 1 o’clock position to unlock.
  4. Turn the handle clockwise until the safe door opens. Once open, turn the handle back to its starting position so the bolts are extended. Remove key.

PROPER PLACEMENT AND MOVING OF SAFE

WARNING: SAFES ARE VERY HEAVY AND AWKWARD TO HANDLE. PLEASE USE THE UTMOST CARE IN MOVING THE SAFE. UTILIZING A TRAINED PROFESSIONAL WITH PROPER MOVING EQUIPMENT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
The location of the gun safe is very important and the utmost care should be taken during this consideration.

  1. To maximize the fire protection of your safe, we recommend you place the safe inlower levels in your home where fire temperatures are lower and away from highly combustible materials.
  2. To maximize burglary protection and stability, securing the safe to the floor is recommended.
  3. SA Consumer Products recommends that you store your safe in a closet, office, basement, bedroom or any other location that is convenient for you but out of direct line of sight from prying eyes.
  4. The location of the gun safe is very important.
  5. Using a dolly capable of supporting the size and weight of your safe, move the safe to your desired location. Please take all necessary precautions to protect and prevent any damage to your flooring.
  6. HELPFUL TIP: TO DETERMINE WHETHER YOUR SAFE WILL MAKE IT THROUGH DOORWAYS, STAIRS, OR CORNERS, TAKE THE EMPTY SAFE BOX AND SEE IF IT WILL FIT ALL THE WAY THROUGH TO ITS FINAL LOCATION.
  7. The safe should be installed adjacent to a side wall with minimal space on eitherside of the safe. Wherever possible, the safe should be flat against the wall and floor. Remove the baseboard and/or wall trim if necessary.
  8. Always ensure the safe is in an isolated and dry area. Never place the safe in direct contact with a wet floor. When installing your safe on a concrete floor, use of a moisture/protective barrier is highly recommended. Failure to do so, or exposing the safe to chemicals or other adverse environments, may void the warranty.
  9. If your safe seems unlevel, you may need to shim the bottom of the safe to prevent the door from swinging open too quickly, or closing on itself.

KEEPING YOUR SAFE DRY

We recommend placing a moisture/protective barrier between your safe and concrete floor to prevent any moisture, mildew and rust damage the safe. Installing your safe in a place with climate control (heat in the winter and cooling in the summer) is highly recommended. In areas of high humidity or frequent temperature fluctuations (garages) it is recommend to take appropriate precautions to ward against moisture damage. We strongly encourage the use of an internal dehumidifier and/or desiccants to protect your contents from rust or mildew. Internal dehumidifiers should not be in direct contact with the side or back walls.

SECURING YOUR SAFE

WARNING : YOUR SAFE IS DESIGNED TO SUPPORT ITSELF WHEN THE DOOR IS OPENED. HOWEVER, CAUTION SHOULD BE USED TO AVOID TIPPING. WHILE SECURING YOUR SAFE BE SURE TO HAVE A SECOND PERSON HOLD AND STABILIZE THE SAFE TO KEEP IT FROM TIPPING, CAUSING INJURY, AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE SAFE AND SURROUNDING STRUCTURES. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL COMPROMISE THE SAFETY, SECURITY, AND WARRANTY OF THE SAFE.
