An inexpensive but very effective way to protect such documents from fire is to
put them inside a fire resistant document storage bag. This fire resistant
document storage bag is quite big ? at 9 in x 14 in, it can hold legal size
documents. With its fiberglass construction, it is built to withstand high
temperatures of 1000oF. In terms of fire resistance, it gives as much protection
as a fire safe at a much lesser cost.
If you have only one safe in the house, and it is a burglary-resistant safe
where you store your valuables, you should realize that such safes cannot do
much to protect valuable documents or records against fire. If a fire were to
occur, any documents inside a burglary-resistant safe would be reduced to ashes.
You can stuff your important documents in the fire resistant document storage
bag and store them in the burglary-resistant safe. In that manner, the documents
are protected both against burglary and against fire. By the way, do not forget
to let the person who will wind up your affairs know what you have arranged and
how to obtain the documents. Life has no reset button, think safety.
