moisture problem for papers?

This safe has been an amazing purchase for the items I have stored which include documents and I have had no issues with moisture.

As per manufacturer recommendation, the safe should be left open for at least 15 minutes once every two weeks or twice a month. In addition, the safe comes with a medium sized bag of silica gel so you can leave it in along with your documents.Thanks

We have experienced zero problems, but our safe is not in a physical location or a geographical area where moisture is typically a problem...

If the item you are trying to seal is wet, that moisture will not allow a good seal. Try making sure it is dry. Maybe that helps.

I rinse mine with RO water after cleaning, use the micro fiber towels to dry and then use a hair dryer on low quickly to both sides and I haven't had any issues with labels. The hair dryer will dry any excess moisture that gets to the label. I have had a couple of older album labels get noticeably wet in areas after rinsing but no problems after using hair dryer. Just make sure you have a low setting as to not heat the vinyl to much. My father and I have cleaned hundreds of albums this way with no problems what so ever.

Mine have no issues with moisture, and I have one on each of my tanks. They've been running for over a year with no incident of problems. I would be hesitant to put them in a plastic bag though, sounds like a fire risk without needing to do so.

If you are asking why paper is curling up and musky smelling inside the safe, it is because it does get damp inside these safes. Use desicants and put the paperwork inside watertight bags. And air it out at least once a month. This info came straight from Sentry Safe.

No , I have not had that problem like markers do. I think it might depend on the type of paper. but ordinary paper is good.

The paper is sturdy, but porous. I wouldn't use anything but mini glue dots for adhesive. Anything even a little moist would most likely cause the paper to wrinkle as it dried.

If you're concerned about mold, I'd put papers in a ziplock bag before putting them in the lockbox. I don't think it would needed under most circumstances though; maybe only if it was being stored in a humid basement or something like that.

Staples are what most use. you have to use wide staples - the smaller ones from a power gun go right through the paper. Also, make it tight or it will sag after the first rain.

No, I've had no moisture problems whatsoever, but I should also say that I live in a VERY dry area of northern CA & have used (one of the 2 bags I bought) only since early February of 2014, or about 3 months.

There ought to be rounded plastic rods that look like glue sticks for hot glue guns inside. As they drop down, they press against your paper to give it some grab. Yours sounds like defective.

Never checked but have not noticed any moisture in pocket and I use ice water to fill.

I used this paper in a indoor location,I do not feel it would hold up outdoors or where there is moisture

I have this and I don't have a problem with moisture. It works great for me. If anything put a paper towel under it to absorb the moisture.

Mine works just fine with no problems at all, Is there any possibility that you are using the wrong paper labels? Or maybe it got wet and then dried? Sorry i couldn't help. Good luck.

I had some left over last year, and kept them in a thicker zip top bag... they were still fine (soft and squishy) this year when I got them out to use. I wouldn't add any moisture, as what was in there seemed sufficient. I was concerned about mold, but didn't seem to have an issue with it.
