    While I will not comment on the Safes, or any other security
    measures at my current employer I did work for a store, which is now
    closed who had two large safes inside a concrete vault with lots of
    reinforcing rod (I'm told that after the store closed the new tenet
    decided to convert this vault into an office for the manager, it
    took two days to cut an opening for a window to lookout onto the
    sales floor) . The walls of this vault had an alarm grid mounted to
    the inside walls behind the wall board. Each of the safes also had
    alarm connections. And the entire Vault and the safes were on a
    second secured alarm form the rest of the store. 

    During the eight years I worked there I responded to three separate
    alarms where the premises had been broken into and two which were
    malfunctions (or a test to see what type of response was coming).
    Incidentally the vault was never penetrated or assaulted, Security
    is very important.  Several smaller safes are perhaps better than
    one big one, provided that they are good safes, and a UL rated
    TR30X6 is a good safe. 

    Listen to what the big insurers want, then implement as much as you
    can afford, even if you choose not to purchase there insurance.
