Overview
This Gardall 2218-2-Grey is one of the most rigorously tested safes available, holding both a UL 2 Hour Fire Rating and a UL RSC Burglary Rating — a combination found on no other safe on the market. Hand-built in Syracuse, New York using techniques refined since 1950, this safe represents decades of American craftsmanship and engineering excellence.
The UL 2 Hour Fire Rating means this safe survives heating to 1850°F for two hours, a 30-foot drop simulating structural collapse, and a second round of heating — all while keeping the interior below 350°F. Gardall achieves this through a proprietary poured insulation formula refined over decades, unlike competitors who rely on fireboard or sheetrock.
Against burglary, the UL RSC certification confirms this safe withstands a skilled technician armed with hand tools and technical drawings for a minimum of five minutes. Specially engineered spinning bolts, embedded drill-deflecting shields, heat-treated hardplate armor, and a 4¼" recessed anti-pry door make forced entry exceptionally difficult.
Available with a UL-listed Group II dial combination or electronic keypad lock, this safe offers flexible security options backed by Gardall's Lifetime Replacement Guarantee.
