Many fire safes on this site are rated by the Underwriters Laboratory for
fire resistance. UL is an independent laboratory with expertise in fire-rating
and burglary ratings. The Underwriters
Laboratories was established in 1894 and has been testing products for over 100
years. The original mission of the UL was to protect the public by testing
products for safety. Now many fire safes bear the UL Mark. Underwriters
Laboratory is a not-for-profit, nongovernmental organization.
| Once UL has evaluated a product it continues to check that product. Field
representatives make periodic visits to each manufacturer. A product must
continue to earn the rating that was given originally by UL. If a product no
longer complies with UL's standards the UL mark is removed. |
