Browning is a company well known for their hunting and outdoor products. This includes items such as clothing, knives, lights, firearms and Browning safes to keep those firearms safe and out of the wrong hands. Not only are safes used to keep the firearms secure, they also protect from fire and other natural disasters. Sometimes it is difficult to understand the different fire ratings and how fire protection differs from one safe to another. Lets take a look at each safe and the fire protection that it offers.

There are two main lines of safes offered by Browning. The first are the Value Safes, and there are three series in this line. They are the Theftguard series, the Bronze series and the Copper series. The other line of safes are the Premium safes, of which there are four series: the Sterling, the Medallion, the Gold and the Platinum series.

Let's first take a look at the three series in the Browning Value safes line.

The introductory series for Browning safes is the Theftguard series. The models in this series includes the TG30F, TG33F, TG23F and TG15F. The fire protection feature for these safes are:

  • Offers 30 minutes of fire protection for a fire burning at 1200 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • 1/2" fireboard (fire resistant insulation), with one layer of fireboard in the body and two layers in the door.
  • Palusol expanding fire seal in the door

The Bronze series is the next step up and includes the BR41F, BR34F, BR24F and the BR61F. These offer the following upgrades in protection:

  • Two layers of 1/2" fireboard in the body and the door.
  • Palusol expanding fire seal

The Copper Series of Browning safes is the top series in the Value line. This series includes the C41F, C34F and C26F. These offer:

  • 60 minutes of fire protection at 1200 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Three layers of 1/2" fire resistant insulation in the body and the door.
  • Palusol expanding fire seal.

Now lets take a look at the Premium line of Browning safes, and its four series.

Sterling series is the base level series in the Premium line of safes and includes the S26F, S39F and S47F. Though there are other upgrades in security, the fire protection is the same as the top level Copper series of Value line safes:

  • 60 minutes of fire protection at 1200 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Three layers of 1/2" fire resistant insulation in the body and the door.
  • Palusol expanding fire seal.

  • 90 minutes of fire protection.
  • Four layers of fireboard in the body and door, and five layers in ceiling and floor.

  • 100 minutes fire protection.
  • Five layers of fireboard in the body, and four layers in door.
  • Premium 3-in-1 palusol fire seal.

The Platinum series is the top of the line in Browning safes. The different size models are the PP47F, PP39F, PP28F. It has some security upgrades from the Gold series of safes, but the fire protection is the same as listed directly above.
