Best Answer

There are only two ways to know if your fireproof safe contains asbestos.

  1. Look at the design specifications for the make and model you have, or
  2. Have a hole drilled in the safe so a sample of the interior material can be removed by a qualified asbestos handler and analyzed by a qualified analytical laboratory.
