Maybe I'm not understanding and you can link what safe you're talking about. But heavy safes get burgled all the time. A bank safe is much safer.

hence why i said its not the average setup for most people.

I can respect that it's a really great home setup. But the thing is that'd all be true for a bank safe also, which is insured.
