UL 2-Hour Fire and RSC Burglary: USA-built home or office protection
Built for homeowners and small businesses guarding documents and valuables, the Gardall 1812-2 from the 2-Hour Fire & Burglary Series carries dual UL listings: a 2-hour fire rating and a Residential Security Container burglary rating. Furnace-tested to 1850 F with the interior staying under 350 F, and made in the USA, it pairs verified fire and theft resistance in one compact body.
This is a freestanding floor safe measuring 25 inches high by 17.25 inches wide by 19.75 inches deep on the outside (add 2 inches for the handle), with an 18 by 12 by 11.75-inch interior of about 1.47 cubic feet. At 313 pounds it suits a closet, office, or home corner, and a center bolt-down hole lets you anchor it to the floor.
Engineering & Security
- UL Residential Security Container rating: The body carries a UL RSC burglary listing, the recognized entry-resistance standard for residential and light-commercial safes.
- 4-1/4-inch door, 2-1/2-inch walls: A thick recessed anti-pry door and 2-1/2-inch-thick walls resist prying and physical attack at the most vulnerable points.
- Five 1-inch active bolts: Massive 1-inch round bolts lock in three directions and extend deep into the body, securing the door across multiple edges.
- Independent re-locker and hardplate: A hardplate and independent re-locker defend the locking mechanism against drilling attacks on the lock.
- UL Group II lock: A UL-listed Group II high-security lock is standard in mechanical form, with an electronic keypad available as an upgrade.
- Shear-point chrome handle: If the chrome handle is forced, its shear pin snaps and the handle spins free, defeating a handle-pry attack.
Fire Protection & Interior
- UL 2-hour fire label: The 1812-2 carries a UL-listed 2-hour fire rating, independently verified rather than self-claimed.
- 1850 F furnace test: During UL testing the safe was exposed to 1850 F for two hours while the interior stayed below 350 F, protecting paper documents.
- Adjustable shelf and carpeted interior: One adjustable shelf and a plush carpeted interior organize and cushion documents, jewelry, and valuables inside.
- Removable door: The door lifts off to reduce weight and ease maneuvering the 313-pound safe into its final location.
- Lifetime fire-damage replacement: Gardall replaces the safe at no charge if it is damaged in a fire, excluding shipping costs.
Ideal Buyer & Use Cases
The Gardall 1812-2 fits homeowners and small-business owners who need both UL 2-hour fire protection and a UL RSC burglary rating in one floor safe. At 25 inches high by 17.25 inches wide by 19.75 inches deep and 313 pounds, with roughly 1.47 cubic feet inside, it holds business papers, deeds, and modest valuables.
Buyers needing less space can step down to the smaller Gardall 1612-2 (1612-2), while those wanting more room can move up to the 1818-2 (1818-2) or the larger 2218-2 (2218-2). Note: this model has been discontinued by Gardall; confirm current availability before ordering.
