C-rated Composite Safe - This safe is specifically designed for those who are primarily concerned about theft protection -- but still want to protect against fire. The C-rated composite safe is constructed with 2 1/2" walls and a 4 1/2" door thickness consisting of high density concrete material (9200 psi) on all six sides. Pound for pound and dollar for dollar, this safe protects from physical attack better than many safes of the same size because of the high density material from which it is constructed. The C-rated composite safe offers 1/2 hour UL fire label protection. These units are equivalent to an all-steel safe with 1/2" solid steel walls and 1" solid steel doors.

E-rated Composite Safes - These safes are geared for the commercial market because they offer greater theft protection than C-rated safes by virtue of their 3 1/2" walls and 5 1/2" doors, all constructed with high-density concrete material. (FIRE PROTECTION?) These units are equivalent to an all-steel safe with 1" walls and 1 1/2" thick doors and qualify for E-rated burglary insurance coverage (contact your insurance company for exact requirements).
