Is the pull fire proof. I need 2 for a fireplace flue chain which hangs over the fire place grate.

I have no idea but would not try it myself. The material seems to be a hard plastic. You would need to contact Rivers Edge customer service to confirm temperature rating. Another idea is to check with a store that specializes in selling fireplace components and accessories.

I doubt they are fire proof.they are made from either wood or a light weight resin..not metal.

I installed it over 4 years ago, so I don't recall that it is fire safe or resistant. I highly doubt it, though. Keep in mind, the interior storage capacity for this safe is small. Fire resistant safes tend to have thick wall, are larger than this one, and cost much more. It is just large enough to storage several sets of keys hanging on the "back" wall using glued on hooks, or if used flat, large enough to hold a few day's worth of mail. Take a look at your local discount hardware stores. Since I bought mine, I've seen this same kind of small safe in stock at Harbor Freight, Big Lots, and others, for less than I paid for this one. I am glad I purchased this safe, as it serves its intended purpose well. I installed it over 4 years ago, so I don't recall that it is fire safe or resistant. I highly doubt it, though.

This safe is made with a fire-proof/waterproof material. It is not made for protection against drill attacks. My research shows that a nice drill can put a hole in this safe. There is not too much metal to it. A magnet sticks to it weaker than a fridge, so any professional theif will laugh at this safe whereas anyone else will have trouble just moving it. It weighs well over 100 pounds and is too bulky to pick up easily.

We own one and I would say it is not fire safe. It is a great safe for storage but is not built like a fire safe.

If you have an enormous fireplace...otherwise there us no physical limitation preventing its use except the quality of the chain used to hold the pot....

No. It is neither water nor fire proof. Although it would resist flames for a few seconds or maybe a minute, it is just metal with no insulation for fire proofing. There are no water seals so it is not water proof, although if you spilled a glass of water on it, the water probably would not get inside.

It should be fine, it is cool to the touch on the base, even the granite is fine for setting drinks on while the fire is lit. It will take two strong people to lift it though.

Fireproof IS NOT heat proof! The safe itself may last through the fire, but NOTHING INSIDE WILL. Trust me, I know this well after the contents of 5 "fireproof" safes were destroyed when a fire took one of my family's homes. The safes survived. The things inside, especially paper, cannot withstand the heat. Look into it. Most fireproof safes can only withstand the heat for a few minutes - sorry, that's worthless.

We have used ours on a grate over a campfire but never directly on a fire. I don't see any reason why you couldn't.

not sure I used mine on an indoor gas fireplaceI removed the grate and the logsthen put down a layer of lava rocksaround the burners and used two bags of the glass check with your instructions on your outdoor gas fireplace

I have had this up for two years. I have both a charcoal grill and a gas grill on the deck The cover is high enough to be far away from both, so I've not had an issue with fire retardance.

If you mean a grate for the wood, you don't really need one. I've had many fires in mine without one.

I don't think it has a UL fire rating...I didn't receive any such documentation with mine. But I was able to secure an insurance policy based on this safe, for whatever that is worth. It is constructed from some pretty heavy guage steel plate, so "resistant" is probably an OK adjective..."proof" is not. I would trust it as much as my free standing sentry safe, especially built into a sheetrock wall.

its heat resistant, nothing is really fireproof. It is a Muslin Dyed Cloth as long as you dont have a hot lights inches away from it it shouldn't be an issue. I used 800 watt lights to light it from about a foot and a half away for over 2 hours

No. This is not flammable. If you hold a flame right under it as if to light it, the best you'll do is remove the golden color from the top. Even the silver underneath stays a shiney silver.

Yes. Just be cautious of fire temp. If you get it really high you will warp the charcoal grate

No, I doubt this safe is "fireproof". A) because it is made of thin steel plate with no insulation. B) the manufacturer would cheerfully make that claim if it were fireproof. However, it is a wonderful way to lock my rifle/shotgun away from grandchildren who frequently visit my home.
