    When tightening the bolts is there a reason you have to be by hand? Could you not use a socket bit on a drill to tighten??

      You can use a drill, but we do it by hand to ensure the bolt grips the anchor rather than accidentally spinning the anchor in the wall.

    What if there are tiles on the concrete wall and floor? Not suitable?

      Tiles on concrete is fine for install. You just need to be careful not to crack the tiles when drilling.

    does a plaster need to be removed before you bolt it into the bricks behind? Here i don't think it was. Thank you

      No, the plaster does not need to be removed. To install the safe to the wall, it needs to be brick or plaster directly on to brick. There are issues only when it's plasterboard and there is a void.

    i didn't hear anything about finding a stud. did i miss that?

      A safe should be installed to a wall or floor that is solid, such as brick or concrete. A stud wall isn't recommended by the manufacturers or insurance companies.

      @@thesafeshop so if you live in California where all framing is made out of studs you’re screwed?

      @@michaelbattistamusic It is possible to install to a studded wall if you can locate the stud and use appropriate fixings. The fixing bolts that come with the safe are masonry rawl bolts, designed for brick or concrete. Bick or concrete is the most secure fix and what the manufacturer recommends.

      @@michaelbattistamusic I was wondering the same thing. I’m in Canada but I don’t have a basement. It’s all wood, plaster and studs…... I guess I can secure it to my driveway! 🤔

    Would you recommend an 8mm or 10mm bolt?

    • @thesafeshop
      @thesafeshop  Год назад +2

      For the safe we installed in this video, we used the 12mm bolts that came supplied with the safe. The size of the fixing bolt that's required will depend on the safe that's being installed because of the size of the pre drilled holes in the safe. Each safe comes with a fixing kit which are generally 8mm, 10mm or 12mm.

      The Safe used in this video was the Chubbsafes Zeta 55K which has now been replaced with the slightly larger 65k - www.safe.co.uk/products/chubbsafes-zeta-grade-0-65k.html. There is also a smaller 50K model available - www.safe.co.uk/products/chubbsafes-zeta-grade-0-50k.html.
