- Mark the drilling points through the pre-drilled holes on the floor or wall.
- Move the safe aside and drill holes at the marked points using an appropriate drill bit for the anchors. Ensure the depth is sufficient for the anchors.
- Clean any dust or debris from the drilled holes.
- Reposition the safe over the drilled holes.
- Insert the heavy load anchors through the safe's holes and into the drilled holes.
- Tighten the anchors securely until the safe is firmly fixed to the surface. Do not overtighten.
