When I was on the fire dept. we had several total fires that the people had "fire safes". I never saw one of them that saved much besides heavy papers like deeds and such. Think about how a fire is going to create hot coals and where they are going to lay.
If I had a fire safe I would put it in the basement. Unless it is a total fire then most times the floor will not be completely burn and will keep the coals off of the safe.
I personally just have a regular safe but it is in a storm room built into the basement that has a concrete ceiling. I built it thirty years ago when we had several tornadoes around here. I saw people that where killed when the house fell into the basement.
Another problem with most safes you buy is that they are not really that big inside. I would have to have several to hold all of my guns.
I personally think that a safe deposit box is the best for serious papers and valuables. Then use good gun cabinets in rooms not likely to burn. Like a basement or cellar.
