Safe installation method

Before using a safe, proper preparation is necessary. Many safes are stolen because they weren't installed properly. Installing a safe is not just a way to secure it, but also a form of security. Safes can be mounted on a wall or inside a cabinet.

First: Preparations before installation

Many safes weigh several hundred kilograms and are equipped with wheels for easy movement. Before installing and securing the safe, the base feet and casters should be removed to ensure there are no gaps at the bottom after installation. This is more effective in preventing the safe from being pried open. Second: Installation location and space.

To ensure safety and privacy, please do not install it in obvious places such as the living room. If conditions permit, and you personally seek even greater privacy and security, it is recommended to build a secret room and install a safe, just like in TV dramas. Generally, it is installed in the bedroom or study.

For maximum safety, the safe must be fixed to a concrete wall. If the wall is thick enough, a hole just big enough for the safe needs to be drilled in the wall, and the cement should be smoothed out slightly. As for the installer, it's best if you can do it yourself; otherwise, have a professional install it to ensure the strength and quality of the installation.

Third: Installation method

Taking Huadu safes as an example, each Huadu safe has two mounting holes on the back of the box, and you can also find two expansion screws included.

First, you need to accurately position and drill holes in the wall according to the distance between the two mounting holes for the safe. You'll need an electric drill; watch out for flying stones! Choose an alloy drill bit with the same diameter as the expansion bolt's tightening ring (tube), mount it on the drill, and then drill the hole in the wall. The hole depth should ideally be the same as the bolt length. Then, insert the expansion bolt kit into the hole. Remember, do not unscrew the nut; otherwise, if the hole is drilled too deep, the bolt may fall into the hole and be difficult to remove. Tighten the nut 2-3 turns until you feel the expansion bolt is secure and not loose, then unscrew the nut. Align the safe's mounting holes with the bolt, install the outer washer or spring washer, and then tighten the nut.

Important points to note: For 6mm diameter drill bits, drill a 10mm hole; for 8mm diameter drill bits, drill a 12mm hole. Drill the hole according to the outer diameter of the expansion tube. If the brick wall is soft, choose a smaller drill bit. The entire expansion tube should be inserted into the wall; the deeper the sleeve, the more secure it will be, provided the threaded part is long enough.
