Don't be stupid!!!!!
Hockey pucks work well to set the safe on.
Keeps it off the concrete and allows air flow underneath.
You can drill a hole in the puck to put the bolt thru if you want.
Put the bolt thru a slightly larger piece of pipe to make it more difficult to saw the bolts.
And provides plenty of room for someone to insert a prybar.Originally Posted by asystejs
Yes, I'd be careful using the pucks. It also allows a safe moving dolly to slide easily into place. I'd worry the jack on the dolly would just pull the anchor out of the concrete.
these are what i have always used

My insurance company required that I mount the safe on blocks 3" high to keep it off the floor. They said it reduced claims (damage, losses from water) by 90%.

That wont happen but it will support the safe nicely while the bolts are cut.
Having said that most criminals who have that amount of time and skill will be able to get it open in place.
The air gap will allow things like springs or lo5os rounds to hide under the safe.
You can also get a stick of trex decking, cut it in quarters, screw two of them together to get 3" of clearance. It will obscure the bolts better than hockey pucks.
Having dealt with a family member who had a small water heater leak next to their floor mounted safe, I'm a believer in having that gap. Not to mention having worked hundreds of household floods at work.
