Best Answer

Yes. Because homes typically contain distinct flammable products and will burn for a limited duration, "fireproof" safes are designed to keep the interior temperature lower than the ignition temperature for paper. You can purchase varying levels of protection, but only the highest-rated will provide maximum protection in the event that a house burns to the ground.
