This is an overall / master asset protection thread. All things that protect your valuables. My primary motivation is protecting my NFA stuff. Any advice is appreciated as I'm learning.
UL certification for safes

Security Cameras
- 8 meg or better resolution inside the property and out.
- This will allow you to read license plates at 50 yards.
- Many cameras are lousy or not admissible in court
- Check local legal and regulatory requirements when determining the resolution needed in order to be able to use camera footage as evidence in court.
- At $600 and up you can easily stream your cameras to your iphone. Cheaper if you have the tech expertise.
Safes
General concepts- Bolting to the concrete floor is a must. Otherwise they carry it off and take their time elsewhere.
- Get a safe that slows down a thief long enough to allow time for cops to show up after the alarm goes off
- Amsec and many other high end safes will use carbide chunks in their walls to break drill bits and wear down grinding tools
- Google "small TL-15 safe" to find a relatively high quality small safe.
UL certification for safes
- Class 125
- Class 150
- Class 350
- Class TL-15 ( will resist abuse for 15 minutes from tools )
- Class TL-30 ( will resist abuse for 30 minutes from tools )
- Class TL-40
- Class TRTL-30
- Class TRTL-60
- Class TXTL-60
Other tricks
- SmartWater stains criminals with invisible dye
- GPS trackers are available for safes
- Anything CS gas related is a legal mess an not a good idea unless you have lawyers and engineers... and are a corporation / bank.
- Put a motion sensor next to your safe as some burglars won't use your homes door or window for entry
- Don't advertise what you have. Most of the time you've met the person that robbed you. They may be a plumber, pizza delivery guy, "friend", etc...
