    I am needing information on this safe made by Hall Safe Company. Does anyone know what year it was manufactured or how much it weighs. I need to move it 9 feet but am concerned about the weight
    Thanks

      You don't give us any dimensions? I can see it has 3 himges, so it must be big. These old safes have concrete in them, so I'm guessing 1000+ lbs.

      This is a 2 hinge, smaller safe and it weighs 850 lbs

      dav2no1, Ha! I had my eye on that same listing earlier today, but I was busy with real life. :-(

      fulcher, It sounds like your Halls safe is almost twice as big as the one at the bluecrabantiques site.

      Here's another big one (from a different manufacturer) that might weigh as much as 4,000-5,000 lbs. Various commenters offer advice on moving it:

      *snip*

      It's 6' tall, 40" wide, 36" deep. The doors are 8" thick and the sides are 6" to 8" thick.
