Does anyone have an idea where to find one?

Thanks
OC girl, if you want a strong one for documents and papers to be protected, I have one similar to this I bought at Kmart.
It was about 35 lbs if I remember, so I did carry it was tough, But it has a combo and key...It defeats the purposw if you set the combe on a dial one as I did and then have the key on a ring available.

I would avoid the key one as you do not mention OCgirl, they pry open and pick open real easy...also walk off real easy.
Some small models come with a template to bolt to the floor.

The best ones for out of site to "out side family and guest" are the plain site ones, also, the heavy duty safe with combination lock and key...

For those house guest and family issues as I had to hide from a nephew that would continually break in, and his father...(They Would love to find a bottle of percocette of valium around...even in a sock drawer, or cosmetic bag.)
I did have really good results. even forgetting myself, hidden in a suitcase in closets do you know how many zippers and slots they have in a great bag Good luck,
Di

This one is at D!ck's Sporting Goods.

I found good buys at K-Mart and Sams Club.

But if you want to conceal and ease of use try a product like this hidden in plain site....

These are stand-alone, battery operated locks . (The Kaba Mas locks are unique and use a self-generating system and do not need batteries). If the batteries fail, there is a key bypass just in case. Batteries generally last about 2 years. Your combination can be set easily by you at any time, right on the lock. These locks are real labor and money savers compared to the systems that aren't stand-alone. Consider the following: using a stand-alone means less labor because there is no wiring, no drilling (except a small amount of door modification), no mortising out for an electric strike on the frame and no need to purchase anything else. Some models like the Trilogy can even be hard wired in, which allows you to use the keypad of the unit on the outside and at the same time buzz someone in from a remote location from the inside! These locks require a 2 1/8 inch main hole and in addition also require 3 or 4 smaller holes. The door should be 1 3/4 inches in thickness. The Trilogy series (not the mortise) can me used on thinner 1 3/8th inch doors with special adaptor plates. They are an option on the bottom of the Trilogy page. Handing is usually changeable.

MOST OF THESE LOCKS NORMALLY COME WITH THE FOLLOWING FUNCTION: Always locked on the outside and always unlocked from the inside. When the door closes it also locks. The less expensive sets for under $200 lock on both sides or open on both sides. This is the main reason they are not the correct locks for fire exit doors.
