I have laminate floors and I would be put this safe on the second floor in my house. How would I go about bolting it to the floor.

I put mine in basement bolted to concrete floor. My thinking was if you have a house fire..if safe is on ground floor it may get covered if 1st floor collapses down on it...but you would know exact area of safe. If mounted on second floor...you may have to search for it. It gives you instructions on how to bolt to wood or concrete or you can look up instructions online. I am sure people bolt to wood/laminate flooring....people that live in apartments do not have a concrete floor.

yes don't screw it!case you want to move it later you want have 2 1/4 inch holes in your tile, use 2 sided tape, 25lb type should work good.

No this unit does not need to be bolted to the floor. it seems very solid just sitting on the ground.

You can do both. It will set on the floor and has the key like attachments if you want to secure it to a wall. I suggest if you are going to mount it to a wall find moly "fixtures" and layer them in multiple units. If you do find a stud, anchor that on that side. Use moly bolts/fasteners if your 2x4/ are not where they should be.:)

No. That plate slides off and the upraised base is mounted so close to the door shoe molding, it could be stepped on maybe but fall hazard less likely.the biggest con to me is drilling into my hardwood floor and using a hammerdrill to install the one in the basement concrete floor.

It already has hole drilled into it. I suppose you could anchor it to a concrete floor if you drilled and put anchor bolts in the floor. I just through bolted it to a long 2 by 12 and use it outside with the 2 by 12 running perpendicular to the bar like a T. I have another one for inside that just fits inside 2 or 3 45lb olympic weights. much easier for inside and no drilling.

There are 2 holes on the bottom of the safe and it comes with 2 screws. It depends on the type of floor you have, wood should be no problem, if concrete, then you will have to use a concrete bit to drill holes and use some type of concrete lag bolt....see your local hardware store. Also, I would recommend not using the screws that come with the safe. Look for stronger, and perhaps longer bolts.

No, it will not, because you must screw it down to the floor with a drill bit and screws.

I did not try that but we assembled it in the living room and moved it to the bedroom with no problems. I dont see a problem for moving it to another floorvits sturdy enough and yet not heavy

Go to the Natures Head website, they have complete instructions and even a step-by-step video, to show you how to install and attach to the floor.

It does nit need to be bolted to the ground, putting on carpet is fine. Wouldo be more stable though on hard floor.

I personally drilled holes in the bottom and bolted mine to the concrete floor. There were 2 holes there already but I wanted to put in 4. I also put two through the back so it could not be rocked. It is not going anywhere!!

Hmm, we didn't. What we did do was to go to hardware store and buy a little metal contraption with white plastic wheel to "anchor" the door to the baseboard right where meets the door jamb when the sliding door is open. We have cats that like to insert a forepaw under the sliding door when it's closed and pull so that the door lifts outward, then bangs back down, so we wanted to prevent them from doing that. But there's no floor guide. I don't remember whether the kit came with a floor guide, but my husband didn't use it (if it did), and we don't miss it.

It can. I drilled the holes in concrete with a hammer drill and sank anchors into them. The floor plate for the safe mounts to the concrete the same as it would to a wood floor.

Yes, it can be bolted to the floor. I've got mine bolted down. I don't recall if it came with the bolts.
