Product Description
BF3416LTE-F-GR-ESL10 — AMSEC BF3416 Burglary & Fire Safe, UL RSC Level I, ETL 60-minute fire
Most safe listings tell you a rating and hide the tape measure. You find out it does not fit the closet, the cabinet base or the freight elevator after it is on the truck. The BF3416 measures 39.25"H x 21.75"W x 21.75"D outside, 34"H x 16-1/2"W x 16"D inside, and weighs 690 lbs. It carries UL RSC Level I and ETL 60-minute fire. At 690 lbs this is a freight delivery and a real anchoring job — check the floor and the path in before you order.

Compliance & Codes
Burglary: UL RSC Level I (Residential Security Container). UL tested the safe for 5 minutes of net working time against common hand tools. RSC Level I is a real UL certification, but it is a lower class than TL-15 — if your specification says TL-15, this safe does not meet it.
Fire: 1-hour (60-minute) fire rating at 1200°F, verified by ETL / Intertek. Intertek is an independent testing laboratory; AMSEC states this test method is consistent with UL-72. It is an independent verification, but it is not a UL fire certification — if a specification says “UL fire rated” word for word, this is a different mark.
How to read these ratings. UL-certified means Underwriters Laboratories attacked a sample and it held — TL-15 and RSC are UL classes. ETL/Intertek verified means an independent lab confirmed the manufacturer's fire test. A factory rating means AMSEC ran the test itself. B-Rate is a steel-thickness construction class and is not a certification at all. Purchasing specifications usually name one of these exactly, and a substitution gets a purchase order rejected. If you are buying to a written spec, read us the line and we will tell you whether this safe meets it.

Pro-Installer FAQ
Q: Will the BF3416 fit where I want to put it?
A: Outside it is 39.25"H x 21.75"W x 21.75"D, with 34"H x 16-1/2"W x 16"D of usable space inside. Measure the doorway and any turn on the route, not just the final spot — on a safe this size the doorway is what stops the delivery. Add clearance in front for the door to swing full open.
Q: Is this the same as a TL-15 safe?
A: No. This safe is UL RSC Level I, which is a genuine UL certification but a lower class than TL-15. TL-15 means 15 minutes of net working time against power tools; UL RSC Level I is a shorter hand-tool test. If a purchasing specification says TL-15, this safe will not pass the submittal — ask us for a TL-15 model instead.
Q: Does the fire rating protect a hard drive or media?
A: Treat it as paper protection. AMSEC publishes no interior hold temperature for this series, and the rating is written around paper documents — paper chars near 400°F. Magnetic media and drives start failing well below that, closer to 125°F. For media you want a dedicated media safe or an internal media chest.
Q: Does it have to be anchored?
A: AMSEC provides 1 anchor hole in the base. Anchoring is what stops a safe this size being tipped and worked on its back, where the door is weakest. Anchor into concrete where you can; on a wood floor, through the joist.
