I wouldn't count on it lasting through a house fire or someone with a blow torch. I've never tested it myself and I don't think the manufacturer claims that it is fire proof.

definitely is not fire proof. We purchased flame retardant pouches for the safe contents. It is not water proof, I don't know for sure, but am pretty sure.....

i dont believe so , most likely it wont resist the extreme temperatures of a house fire . however it is great for keeping documents/valuables/dangerous items away from family memebers and friends. although if you threw it out of the 4th story of a building it would probably break right open. this is not for top level safety this is just for a hobbyist to keep certain items out of reach of others

Not sure of temp. It's hot but not enough that It would burn you. Works nice.

This is a. Judgement call. No fire should be left unatended. It would depend on the size of the balcony if it is small I would say no to be safe.

Yes (flames), if the fire is large. Must be used outdoors. We feel pretty safe in terms of fire hazard as long as we use it outdoors. Hope this answers your query

I just use it in a small fire safe - 2 of them in approx. 4 cu. ft.. Seems to work fine.

It really depends on the type of wood you are using. If you were to purchase the split wood that department stores sell in the fall/winter/christmas time, once you have your fire going the stove itself will hold about 3 14 to 16 inches pieces then it will last you for aprox 4 to 5 hours. the harder the wood the longer the fire.

There are no guarantees with any fire safe. I live in the mountains and we have multiple fires every year. Some houses burn hotter and the fire safe didn't survive. Some fire safes did survive. In general, fire safes only protect up to a certain maximum temperature. I don't know about water.

No, as it has no fire resistant insulation. It will not catch fire as it is made from steel but the contents would be damaged if it was in a fire.

As I cannot answer how it does in a fire (not had that happen), and can only comment that the company claims it is good up to I believe an hour in fire, with the moisture, I added a pack of silica to take care of moisture and the items I have stored in the safe are fine. There is amble room in the safe. I have several cd's, dvd's, money, a will, some documents, etc. It is very heavy, so if your not going to be moving it around it's good. I like it and it gives me peace of mind to think my item's are pretty safe. I hope this was helpful.

should say on the can cool place not around open flames and not anywhere that is 120 degrees F

According to the label on the fire extinguisher it can be stored at up to 120 degrees.

The Lodge Logic website says it is "safe at high temperatures". To me, 500 degrees F would be safe.

Unlikely. We have ours in an office building right under the fire and smoke detector and have had zero issues. Also, we had our local maint. guy test the air temp during operation and found little difference.

Only to the point of dissipating heat with the steel shell. There is absolutely zero insulation on the inside and at the temps that they test these safes with, I'd imagine it would only last a min or two. If it was a small fire (that didn't spread for some reason), it would keep the contents safe from the direct flame.
