Comrades,
I'm thinking about getting a safe and am concerned about how my storage
plans may effect my toys (rust). Here are some details:
- I live in northern MA.
- I am planning on putting the safe in the basement.
- The basement is finished, except for the small room where the
oil burner and water heater are. That is where the safe will go.
No option there.
- In extreme cases (spring snow melt + rain) this section of the
basement floods about 2 - 3 inches of water max. Outside of
this, it never floods. When it floods it is only for a day or 2.
- Since this room is where the oil burner is, it stays warm in the
winter and fairly cool in the other months.
- We have no climate control (humidifiers, dehumidifiers, AC) for
the house outside of heat.
- I am looking at a Sentry G4211 (see http://www.fsguns.com/safes.html )
any opinions on this model?
- I will probably put the safe on 4 inch high wooden blocks to keep it
elevated.
I'm probably being paranoid, but will these plans keep my toys from
getting rusty or otherwise aging prematurely? Any way to keep humidity
down in the safe that does not require electricity?
Thanks!
