Anchoring Your Safe - Honeywell 5912 Operations & Installation Manual

ANCHORING YOUR SAFE

You may bolt your safe to the floor for added theft protection and resistance to tipping. Your safe
has (4) pre-drilled bolt-down holes in the floor panel. Mounting hardware is provided for securing to
concrete or wood surfaces. If bolting to metal surfaces additional hardware will be needed. Check
with your local home center.
To secure your safe to a concrete surface:
1. Select a suitable and convenient location for your safe.
2. Empty the safe and remove the floor mat.
3. Locate the pre-drilled holes on the inside of safe.
4. Place your safe in the desired location (Figure 1).
5. Line up the pre-drilled holes and mark the floor through the
holes then move the safe aside.
Note: Only 2 of the four holes is needed for mounting purposes.
You may choose either one of the front holes and then use the rear
hole in the diagonal position (See Figure 2 example).
6. Using a 1/2 inch (12mm) drill bit, drill a hole at each of the 2 marks approximately 3 inches in depth
then remove any excess dust (Figure 3).
7. Place the (2) inserts into the drilled holes and tap gently with hammer until flush with floor (Figure 4).
For wood surfaces skip steps 6 & 7:
If mounting to a wood surface, you will drill the 2 marks you made using a 11/32 inch (10mm) drill bit
instead to make 2 pilot holes and the inserts will not be used (Figure 3).
8. Place the safe back over the holes and secure in place using the (2) lag screws that are provided
and then tighten with a 1/2 inch socket wrench (Figure 5).
9. Once completed, replace the floor mat and close the safe door. Then rotate handle
counterclockwise to the left to lock.
