I am seriously thinking of buying a home safe. The kind that bolts down to the floor from the inside. A small but secure one.
I would like to put it in my walk in closet but wonder if it would be secure in plywood. I hate to mess up the foundation of my house inthe basement?
Maybe a wall safe- would that be hidden behind a picture?
I do have a safe deposit box and tend to rotate things through there. And when I go on vacation, I put any jewleery of value at the bank in my deposit box before we leave.
Here is my situation: I do like to have some things at home. Total value of at home stuff around $100K. I have more than that but keep a lot at the bank.I don't wear it all at the same time but like to rotate some things. I have a bunch of inherited stuff that is insured of course, but very sentimental.
I have a cleaning woman come in every 2 weeks. I trust her not to steal and she never has but she does a horrible job cleaning, just horrible and I have been putting off firing her becuase I trust her not to steal but my pre-thankgiving cleaning was the last straw for me. My husbnad and I spent over an hour having to clean up after she left because she did such a bad job.
So, I need to find a new cleaning person. I have had someone steal from me in the past and its made me a bit paranoid.
I would need to safe primarily to lock up anything at home that I'm not wearing before a new person comes in to clean.
I am hoping to keep the cost under $600.
Any ideas, suggestions, comments? Am I being paranoid?
