So I came accross what looks like the strongest safe you could possibly own, the Chubb Sovereign. Made in 1979 in the United Kingdom, here are some specs:




Constructed flawlessly, it stands at 6' 3" Tall, 37.5 inches Wide and is 3¾ Tons of PURE GREATNESS. The five walls and door are made up of a fortress of massive, thick alloy plates of copper, aluminum and carbon steel that encompass the most impregnable alloy barrier material ever formulated to protect against an unlimited arsenal of burning, breaching, cutting and explosive burglary weapons.

Chubb conducted its own testing in London and, also tested independently in France by Laboratoire du Feu. Offsite explosive testing was performed in remote Caribbean Islands for private client witnessing and, in London and France, some of the world's best safecrackers exhausted the most exreme and rigorous testing to a steadfast Sovereign.

MORE ABOUT THE CHUBB SOVEREIGN


•THIS IS THE ORIGINAL CHUBB SOVEREIGN: Built in 1979 to be the Best Safe this World ever witnessed then and now. Chubb makes a safe they call the Sovereign today but, make no mistake about it, there are only a few ORIGINAL Chubb Sovereigns left available to the public.
•It is one of the Rarest Jewelry Safes in the World: This safe can potentially insure in excess of $10 Million with potential for $20 Million in coverage.
•Strongest 6 Foot Tall Safe in the World: This is the cream of the crop in the history of large capacity safes. Professional safecrackers would dread going up against the Chubb Sovereign.
•Unparalleled Burglary & Fire Resistance: Being able to withstand the Thermic Lance, a burglary weapon that slices metal like a hot knife in butter, the Chubb Sovereign stands alone as the most powerful 6' tall safe ever manufactured.
•Explosives: The Sovereign can withstand high explosives such as nitroglycerin, the key ingredient in dynamite (TNT).
•Equivalent to TXTL60: The Most Powerful of All Safes in the World
•Interior Dimensions(Inches): 64" High x 28" Wide x 21" Deep
•Interior Design: At your request
•Cubic Feet (Inside space): 21.78
•Exterior Dimensions(Inches): 73" High x 37.5" Wide x 32.5" Deep
•Overall Safe Weight: 7,447 lbs. Yes, 7,447 lbs.

ADDITIONAL FACTS


•Safe Body & Safe Door Composition: The Sovereign is a seamless, monolithic One Piece Composite Body Casting. Both the Door and Body are comprised of sophisticated, hard abrasion layered castings made with Copper/Zac Nuggets, and Stainless Steel/Zac Nuggets, cast as One Integral Unit. This unique Barrier Matrix encases on ALL Six Sides an additional layered wall of alloy material designed to resist the Thermic Lance. The Walls are 4¼" Thick, and the Door has an overall thickness of 7¾".


•Two Lock Entry: There are two locks that need to be unlocked to enter the safe. The first lock is a high security mechanical lock, and the second lock is a high security key lock.
•Time Lock: This Chubb Sovereign is also equipped with a High Security Time Lock that can be activated at your convenience.


•4 Way Moving Bolts: All 16 Locking Steel Bolts are a massive 1½ thick each. Each steel bolt locks into its own bolt chamber. Once in locked position, the safe becomes one integral unit.
•Chubb Isolator Locking Mechanism: Simply known as "the isolator", Chubb's world renown locking mechanism completely disconnects the bolt throwing ("turn") handle from all 16 locking bolts, making it virtually impossible for the door to ever leave the body by force. Only the safe's true owner can ever open the safe.
•Glass ReLockers: Additional relockers located in strategic attack angles that guarantee the door from never opening to intruders.

Its for sale here :)

There are not many safes with a 60 minute rating, but there are others out there.

If you wanted something stronger, you could go with a portable vault, which is essentially a bank vault door on box. They're usually a bit heavier, in the 12,000 pound range.

A steal at 65 grand. Looks like a brute. I don't think I need a $65,000 dollar safe for my $5000 worth of stuff. :)

I guess this would be a good option for serious things like diamonds, gold, etc.... Dunno.
 
I can only imagine the rigging it would take to move such a beast.
Not only that but the foundation that would be needed to sit it on.
I guess it's safe to say that safe would not be necessary to bolt down.
Very impressive safe.
I wonder what it cost new back in the day?
 
That is one serious safe which is beyond most of our meagre budget. I'm not selling the house to buy one.
 
Yawn... Yeah, I already have 2 of those. One at my Aspen cabin and one at my Malibu beach place. I don't need one at my Wyoming ranch 'cause I have a bunker there.

:rolleyes:
 
For $50K it better include shipping or the deals off!

I can't even imagine what it would cost to ship coast to coast. My safe is 3600lbs and its costing me $700 to ship it from WA to NY. But thats to a local safe dealer with a fork lift. He is charging me another $1K to unload it, then deliver and install in my house...
