Debating on where to put my guns safe in our new home
I would really like to put it in my safe room off the garage but it’s not air conditioned
Our house is on a crawl space and this safe is heavy 700-800 pounds
Any suggestions ?

If you have power to your safe room i would run a dehumidifier in it.

My gun safe is in my garage. Not air conditioned. Been that way for 15 years. Never had a problem.

It's not ideal, but you can put it in a non-conditioned space you just have to keep some sort of dehumidifier in the safe. Just have to check it routinely to ensure that it is still functioning. I do use a rod and have a dehumidifier pack that I throw in the oven a couple times a year. Along with a hygrometer to make sure it’s all good.

If you have power to your safe room i would run a dehumidifier in it. ^^^This^^^. Especially if the space above the garage is heated and cooled, it may not have a lot of temperature swings. You can buy the dehumidifier based on the size of the safe. I had to cut the cord on mine to get the wire through the floor of the safe but just wired a new plug on it and it worked fine.

In a walk in closet with a pier directly under it. And a closet rod loaded with clothes hanging in front of it. Clothes won’t hide this one

I know a fella that built his new house on a crawl space, but he poured a slab under a particular closet that holds some heavy items.
He said it was really simple to do and wasn’t expensive.

Will be fine in garage. Just put one of the heating rods in it.
If you put it inside the house id put on a outside wall or corner.
A fire will be hottest in the center is my thinking on that.

Mine's in my Hunting Room inside my house.
Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.
My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.
