Both of mine are different companies and have the same lock A Commercial grade Type 1 Electronic lock . Also one safe is covered against fire or burglary damage for life The other is covered against flood / burglary / fire. for life They Still Didn't Answer my question about EMP Damage.

AND ---- If there is an EMP event, you think for even one second that the technician will be there to open your safe for you? In an emergency when you need your gun(s) or any other critical supplies? Within a reasonable length of time when many (most?) vehicles will be disabled?

I am so sorry to be so negative, but that is one of the silliest cures for a problem that I can possible imagine!

Just A suggestion I Have never Experienced a EMP . ( If you don't live something You will die for nothing ) http://www.youtube.com/user/USFREEDOMFIGHTER1 Molon Labe
