    I would think it would be ok but why not call the maker and ask?

    Your shelves might come loose if you have any, but they go right back in.

    My 36 gun safe, Cannon came home that way. No issues thus far.

    We've done a few Remingtons and Cannons between friends and myself and moved them all on their backs. None have had issues.

    DO NOT lock the door. Then test the lock with the door open. I had a relocker spring fall out of an older lock & it wouldn't work afterwards.

    Movers moved mine from FL to SC on it's back. As mentioned above we left the door unlocked in case the relocker activated during the move. Also fixed the handle so it couldn't accidentally lock during the move. No issues

    Thanks all, it was an Amsec safe that a gal pal needed moved IMMEDIATELY, and it survived with no issues.
    I only asked because the safe-moving folks I use for any of my moves had cautioned against laying it on its' back, and said there could be issues with the relockers on that model.
    Cannon, Liberty and others have different ways to initiate the relockers, and I didn't know about or have time to research the Amsec line's methods/construction.
