Will paper survive in a fireproof safe?

Okay, so you’re wondering if your important papers will actually survive a fire in a fireproof safe, right? I get it! It’s like, you buy this thing promising protection, but you still kinda wonder… will it really work?

Well, the good news is, generally, yes, paper documents can survive in a fireproof safe. I mean, that’s kind of the whole point of them, isn’t it? These safes are specifically built to protect things like your passport (you definitely don’t want that going up in smoke!), important certificates, insurance policies (imagine trying to sort that out after a fire!), deeds to your house… all that seriously vital stuff. Oh, and cash, of course! Can’t forget the cash.

Think about it: they’re designed to keep the internal temperature low enough for a certain amount of time so your documents don’t combust. Like, I remember my grandpa telling me a story about his neighbor’s house burning down. They had a safe, and everything inside – birth certificates, old photos… everything – was perfectly fine. It was such a relief to them in the middle of all that chaos. Makes you think, doesn’t it? Anyway, that’s why you get a fireproof safe! Hopefully, it works out!
