If a home security safe has a fire rating advertised as 'X' degrees for 'Y' time, is that advertising refering to the the integrity of the safe, or the internal temp of the metal box?

Paper, such as non-replacabale Deeds, Certificates of Ownership, etc.,will char and become unreadable long before jewelry melts or firearms loose their metal temper.

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

So where do you members keep the Titles of your Spanish Land Grants and the Deeds to your own personal gold mine on the family Ponderosa?

Thanks,

salty
