[QUOTE="diggler1833, post: 3796303, member: 48072"] As others have stated: buy bigger, or buy again down the road. However, I'll add that 12ga is the minimum thickness you'd want. The 14ga stuff can be cut into in a surprisingly quick time with an angle grinder. 12ga should take somewhere around 10-20 minutes. Make sure you can bolt it to your floor. A normal guy with a good hand truck can move a loaded RSC (safe) that weighs under 500lbs by himself...as I've done it several times. If not, then they can tip it over and pry the door a lot easier too if it isn't bolted down. I'd also want a minimum of 1350 degree fire rating for at least 45 minutes too. Yeah, good RSCs cost more, but you'll make it back and more when the worst situation possible occurs. [/QUOTE]
