$150 is not enough, my question though is the $850 safe really much better ($700 better)? Both can be broken into.
My daughter hangs with the rougher crowds. My goal is to keep a couple teenage boys who may have a few hours in my house away from my valuables.
A $150 cabinet can be broken into with a couple large screwdrivers but is a $850 safe going to keep them out?
They aren't going to be able to steal It very easily that's for sure.
What You have to realize first here .....is a Lock will only keep an "honest person" honest.
That being said .....
if they want in they Will get in (Period).
All you can do is to make it harder for them to do so.
And too also slow them down as much as possible while doing it.
So you have to look at the $800 Vs. the $150 with those items above in mind.
Also remember that $150 cabinet is most likely light enough one person could pick it up
and carry it quickly away (even if it's full loaded) the $800 one....not so much.
Most thief's will avoid the $800 safe but would quickly and readily attack the $150 cabinet .
The reason being...that one takes longer then the other to open and it isn't worth their time (unless they can quickly remove it and take it some where else so they can take their time to open it).
( Or you were Stupid enough to leave the Key or Code to said Safe where it can be readily found).
And most will tell you that
TIME is not their friend
Good luck with what ever you decide.
By the way ...I own one of the $800 dollar ones my self.
