Read five parts
- Source. Is the statement a manufacturer claim, a third-party certification listing, or an independent test report?
- Exact scope. Confirm model, size, lock and construction. Do not automatically extend a family claim to another variant.
- Time and exposure. Record the stated minutes and temperature along with the test curve or procedure when available.
- Interior criterion. Determine what the test is intended to protect and the maximum interior condition allowed.
- After-fire terms. Read exclusions, warranty language, replacement conditions and documentation requirements.
Do not equate labels. UL 72 is a standard for fire resistance of record-protection equipment. A manufacturer’s gun-safe fire claim is not automatically a UL 72 certification, and a time/temperature phrase alone does not establish identical performance.
How Uzi Credenza handles fire data
The catalog stores the exact claim with its source. A conflict remains disputed. A missing or ineligible claim cannot satisfy the finder’s “Fire protection” requirement. We do not convert different procedures into one score.
Questions to ask before relying on a claim
- Can I find the exact model in the named certification directory or test documentation?
- Does the test address the type of contents I intend to protect?
- Does the installation manual require anchoring, spacing or other conditions?
- What happens to the lock and door after exposure?
- What evidence will an insurer or warranty provider require after a loss?
