Instruction for Concrete Floor Installation
1. Determine where you want to install your safe. Remember to leave clearance to open
the door.
2. Place the safe where you want to mount it and mark the spot on your floor where the
center of the bolt down hole in the safe will be positioned.
3. Move the safe to allow room to drill your hole. Using a 5/8” masonry drill bit and a 1/2”
electric drill (preferably a hammer or percussion drill), drill your hole to a depth of 4” in
the concrete floor.
4. Blow the hole clean of any dust or other material. Insert the anchor in the hole until
the top is flush with the floor.
5. Return the safe to the position where it will be mounted, centering the bolt down hole
in the safe over the anchor you have just place in the floor.
6. Place the flat washer on the lag bolt and insert the screw into the mounting hole in the
safe so the tip of the bolt rests in the lag anchor. Tighten the bolt using your 9/16”
socket and socket drive.
Instructions for Wood Floor Installation
1. Follow steps 1 & 2 for concrete floor installation above.
2. Move the safe to provide room to drill your hole. Using your 1/4” (or smaller) drill bit
and electric drill, drill your hole through the wood floor.
3. Return the safe to where you are going to install it, centering the bolt down hole in the
safe with the hole in the floor.
4. Place the washer on the lag bolt and insert the bolt in the bolt down hole in the safe
with tip of the bolt in the hole in the floor. Tighten the bolt using your 9/16” socket and
drive.
