Location to mount safe in 37PA?

We have a new to us 2018 Allegro Red 37 PA, any suggestions on the most secure place to mount a safe? I would think it would be necessary for the mounting screws to go into metal. If it went into wood it would seem fairly easy to pry it out of the wood with a crowbar.

Interesting. We have the same coach and the same question.

I use these type products tethered to my seat frame: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I personally know (unfortunately) that they are fairly secure; several years ago I was jumped and my car stolen.

The box was beat up/ pried upon - but remained closed. Dummy thief never noticed the key to it was on the set of keys in the ignition.

Quickly CAUGHT - but not yet settled in court (mental plea and virus delays).

There are so many nooks and cranny's in our coach to hide a small lock box. It would take some idiot way too much time to find it. Say for instance, under a jack-knife sofa. You think some clown knows that sofa opens? I have a heck of a time with mine, and I know how to do it!
Just too may places a crook would never know to look unless they were knowledgeable about motorhomes.

We put our safe in the back closet, left side bolted to the top of the fuse panel box.

I would put it in the basement, maybe one of the compartments used for the jacks & slides, AquaHot, vacuum, refrig. I think the average thief would go through the house contents first. Just need to be sure to lock the basement doors all the time.

snap safe

Have o agree that the Snap Safe is an easy addition that can be secured anywhere in the coach with the cable that is supplied. We now have 6 in various sizes scattered abut the coach... you never know what you might find if you can get inside of one
