My 115lb wife and I just removed our 1,100 pound, fire-lined, model 3627 from the shipping pallet, by ourselves, using this method. Not easy, but totally doable, if you're careful!

I just bought a safe and your tactic with the broom handle is ingenious. Goes back to the time of the Egyptian pyramids. 👍🏻

Thank you, Elissa and the two assistants. You Rock!!!

If you don't have broom handles, you can also use copper water pipe, or electrical conduit. I've moved safes with both, and the more pieces of pipe you have the quicker you can move it from place to place on a hard, flat surface.

Nice video. I like the idea of using broom handles to role the safe. Also, Alyssa offers confidence at 5:10 LOVE it!! It is nice to see other women getting it done. Wooohooo!!

Thanks for making and posting this video! It contains some very useful information for maneuvering my 450lb safe.

Would love to see the method to move an ACTUALLY heavy safe. Like a TL30x6 that size.

Thanks for the tip!

If you need more leverage you can use ratchet straps and 2x4's to make it artificially taller

Great video Terry thansk for this info

I remember learning this as a lesson on how not to move a safe off a pellet onto a polished marble entryway of a $3M Florida mansion back in 1979. The memory still haunts me of how that fire safe, built like a five drawer file cabinet, slid off the pallet just like 4:15 and gouged or took a big chip out of the Bracia Italian Imported Marble floor. I know your floor in the shop is just concrete but it seems like you left evidence of your lesson/technique on your shop floor. That's to be avoided, no?

Thanks great vid I have to move a large safe off a pallet

this is great and helpful, thank you! what kind of rollers should you use?

Need to plan floor protection even someone's old drive is a pride an joy. Also a strap or tie 8 inches from top would give you some more control.

Showed me how to move a vending machine off a skid. Thanks!

😂 Sir, you can move a 350 Kg safe with your hands? 🙈 😳 You must be Superman

Nice video. probably how the ancients moved those blocks used to build their pyramids.

I've used pipes under heavy equipment to move them. It's amazing how easy it is.

Damn. That train sounded close!

@mattgeb84 We only make safes 5ft or taller (that balance very well), so it would be best to ask a manufacturer who makes small, heavy safes, that question for the best response.

What size is the first one? The 27 or 32 inch wide?

I got quite confused by the video. Would it be possible to send the female assistant over to clear up some things?

Do you have any suggestions for getting a safe from the garage floor up a 4 inch threshold?

Hey youngsters, you can learn a lot of practical/useful stuff from old guys...pay attention. A couple broom handles and a little 'Indian trick'; who-da-thunkit. Good video.

Yeah, heavey duty pallet...thats why its 1/2 inch plywood on 2x4s..is this the Moe and Curly method?

Informative. More Girl.

we broke out tiles now no use of watching this video but still i searched for this video after finishing job... don't know why ? 🤦🏼😂

Not heavy enough, I need to know how to move a 4000lbs safe

TRAIN HORN SOUNDS LIKE THE ONE ON BIG 'BLOWN HOTROD 67 C10 Hotrod!! Hee Hee!!!

nevermind that the floor just got wrecked

it looks to me like the second safe took a chunk out of the concrete.

how do you do this with a safe that doesn't have nearly as high a center of gravity, what if the safe is say 2 feet wide and 2 and a half feet high, and it weighs 1200 pounds how do i rock this safe forward and backward ??

Can someone fill me as to what happened after the brunette walked into frame?

Allysa's a fox, more videos of her please. xP

That is a light weight safe as safes go. Don't try that with a TRTL30X6 Jewelry safe you might get killed.

why not use 3 or 4 pieces of broom handle?

@scooterdude321480 explain

You got nothing to grab on. I would strap it to a handtruck just to have a handle.

First time using a hammer?! 🤣🤣🤣

Should have watched this first.... lets just say .. .had an accident... ( and survived it)

...when I saw BIG ...Heavy...safe...I was thinking more like 18,000 pounds.....and you'll be using the solid steel roller rods....and....always keep 4-5 rollers under there...still just a 2 man job for experienced dudes...

Larry more and curley

I really like the Woodglut plans.

Too fkin dangerous.

cute brunette!

I've got a 5570 lb safe I was hoping to move. These guys don't know what a heavy safe is. :(

Thats very light safe. Show us moving 3 ton safe
