You need a fireproof home safe to protect and store your important personal documents, such as your birth certificate, social security card and passport. You should also keep important home documents in the safe, like the deed to your house, insurance policies and warranties. A fireproof home safe not only keeps your documents safe from fire, but from theft as well.

Science has found and made fireproof compounds but these are extremely to expensive to put into everyday safes.
