A few months back my husband inherited this massive safe from a family friend. It is quite the antique and quite the load. This safe weighs well over 2.5 tons and makes dents in the pavement as it sits and waits to be moved. We had this gem stored in one of our small units but decided it was time to move it to a new home in our garage. This thing is so heavy besides using a fork lift you have to get pretty inventive. 
Mark worked for days on a pulley system that he could use to get this baby up the incline and into our garage. Late last night (like 11pm) Mark had an idea. He called me from my bed to help move the board every time he moved the safe. He would crank the safe up a few feet, tighten and I would place the board under it's wheels and back away quickly-it would crush any limb I had and flatten it to a pancake.
Hall's safe and Lock Company was founded between 1846-1848 so this baby is old. The pictures are unique and it's a vault inside a vault. I think we can safely put anything in and feel protected. There is no way a burglar can swipe this bad boy without us knowing. Phew-now I can sleep at night.
