In the event of death, the heirs would not have access to Safety Deposit boxes at the local Bank and Trust.

As soon as an Executor or Administrator is appointed, he/she will be allowed to access a safety deposit box. This can be done fairly quickly (a few days, usually), if the person has a copy of the will in hand (so the will should not be kept in the safety deposit box). He/she will also need the key, otherwise the lock will have to be drilled at considerable expense.
A home safe for document should also be water tight. A flood (from a broken pipe, etc.) is more likely than fire, and fire is often accompanied by lots of water being dumped on the burning area.
