Fitting a safe to a timber framed house

Victor · 2009-09-16 12:42:02

How would one go about fitting a safe to a timber framed house? It can be wall mounted, but I'm not sure if there is anywhere structurally strong enough. Its rather difficult to go floor mounted because of the underfloor heating - is there any spot that typically doesn't have underfloor heating?

I'm tempted to ask your address!

Anyway, the safe weight will be the all important factor for fitting. Wall and floor safes are usually built into brick. I seen a job done some time ago where an unusual safe was fitted into wood. There are other options to consider rather than the traditional safe. PM me and I will forward you a link to what I am talking about.
