*The threshold is defined as either the front door or in front of the garage for houses, and the first door of an apartment building.
To help us serve you in the best manner possible, simply follow these few guidelines:
1.Have a clean, clear pathway from the entrance of your home to the final location of the safe.
2.Remove or push to the side any furniture or obstacles that might interfere with passage of the safe, the equipment and our personnel through any room or hallway.
3.Remove all loose throw or area rugs that may lie in the pathway. This is a sure way to trip up both our equipment and our guys.
4.If we are putting the safe into a small contained area (like a closet), please make sure that all articles are removed from this site (or at least pushed completely to the side).
