23 SECURING YOUR SAFE
WARNING: YOUR SAFE IS DESIGNED TO SUPPORT ITSELF WHEN THE DOOR IS
OPENED. HOWEVER, CAUTION SHOULD BE USED TO AVOID TIPPING AND SAFETY
HAZARDS. THE SAFE MUST BE SECURED TO THE FLOOR. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL
COMPROMISE THE SAFETY AND SECURITY OF THE SAFE.
FOR SPORTS AFIELD HAVEN, PRESEVER, TAC LZ, JOURENY & SANCTUARY SERIES
SAFES (see pages 7 & 8 for specific model numbers)
TOOLS NEEDED TO BOLT SAFE TO A CONCRETE SURFACE
 DRILL / HAMMER DRILL
 DRILL BIT – 1/2” ( for installing into concrete with provided hardware)
 WRENCH / 11/16” (17MM) SOCKET
 HAMMER
1. Use the hardware provided or consult your hardware retailer for fastening
hardware for your particular mounting surface.
2. Open your gun safe door and locate and remove the four black caps on the safe
floor. This will provide access to the factory drilled bolt down holes.
3. To secure your safe to the floor it will first be necessary to drill pilot holes in
the floor surface.
4. Drill the appropriate diameter and depth of pilot holes based on the type of
hardware being used and the type of floor surface. For the hardware provided
(concrete floor installation) we recommend using a hammer drill and 1/2”
concrete drill bit to drill holes the four corresponding holes in the concrete
floor.
5. Insert and drive the plastic anchoring plugs into the pilot holes. You may need
to use a hammer to fully insert the plugs into the pilot holes.
6. Secure the safe, by threading all 4 anchor bolts through the factory drilled bolt
down holes in the bottom of the safe and ratcheting down tight.
 Make sure the metal washer sits on top of the rubber washer.
Tighten the bolt to compress the rubber washer between the safe
and metal washer. Failure to do so, will allow water to enter the safe
in the event of a flood.
 Journey series safes will not include rubber washers.
7. Replace the four black caps onto the floor of the safe.
The SPORTS AFIELD MAXIMUM SECURITY SERIES SAFES (see page 8 for specific
model numbers) do not come with hardware. Consult your local hardware
retailer for fastening hardware specific to your mounting surface and location.
Follow the same steps above adjusting the drill diameter and depth of pilot hole
based on the selected fastening hardware.
