I need some collective help, so here it is: I need a safe for 12 or so handguns, 3-5 rifles, documents, cameras, passports, jewelry stuff like that.

The logic location would be the basement, but we have radiant heat in there so am very worried by the bolting, which it's way too risky to do on the floor.

So am looking for a good safe which can be either used upstairs or bolted to the wall through holes in the back.

Somebody recommended me a Dakota, but then the dealer itself told me it was a cheap Chinese thing that would not keep a thief out for more than a few minutes.

Thoughts, recommendations?
