We looked and looked for a safe that had a file drawer for paper files and this was just about the only one we found. In our old safe, we stacked manila envelopes containing important papers, and it seemed silly to have to take nearly everything out of the safe just to get to the envelope holding the document we wanted. This one solves that problem. The file drawer isn't huge, of course, but easily holds all our really important documents. We use the shallow door for keeping our "petty cash" secure. We also like the way the combinations work. While the factory combination will always open the safe, we can set combinations that are easier to remember or even create a 'temporary' code to give someone else limited time access. Nice design. We have no idea about how waterproof it is, thank goodness
