Q: Are wall safes fireproof?

A: Standard wall safes that are designed for a 4” or 6” wall depth will not be fireproof. Because of how thick the fire material must be to prevent the heat from getting inside, it is not possible with that size depth. Wall safes that are fireproof are typically 12-15” deep. You will need more room behind your wall to install this type of safe.
