I just did a quick read-thru and comparison of National Security to Fort Knox. Personally, I believe the Fort Knox is superior. For example.....composite door vs a reinforced door. Composite doors may not be as strong due to the reliance on the bent steel vs solid sheet. Fire rating at 1200 is just above the average high-end temps that a house fire can get to. Two hours time may not be sufficient with a 1200 degree rating. Also, the increased fire rating increases the thickness of the body and reduces overall available space. I do not see mention of corner bolts anywhere in their specs.

I bought a Fort Knox a few months ago and it was $5200 installed including the LED lighting, door organizer plus a 3/4" body and 1" door using Armaknox steel which is 3 times harder than the standard steel used by virtually all safe manufacturers.
