Installing a safe in a transit

[kiwidave]

Thanks All
Suz, I have looked at a couple of small safes with mounting holes. We only have a SWB transit, so unfortunately there aren’t many places where it can go, under the bed is pretty much the only place where it can be bolted to the floor.

MG, had thought along those lines, and was considering using a plate of steel under side of the floor to help resist any efforts to pry if off the floor. Should they get some sort of bar under an edge of it from the top side, hopefully it will stop them taking the whole safe. Welding the nuts on the underneath seems like a good idea.

If they want to get in, I guess they will get in, just need to minimize losses!!

thanks
Dave
