How would you mount a safe limpet on a safe. They supply 4mm machine screw that need a 4mm drill and tap to make a threaded hole. Tricky to drill safes!!

How would you mount one?

Cheers

The limpets we used years ago, were easy, there was a 25mm dia magnet which we used to use Superglue to attached to the safe just make sure you fix the magnet in the right place, so that when put on the Limpet prevents operation of the lock ;)
 
Incorrect to use super glue.
Not the done thing.

If you know nothing about safes then drilling into the wrong point will lock it up and you WILL require a Locksmith.

The limpets only require a 4mm hole about 10mm deep in the safe skin, and the hole taped out for machine screw. I not yet found a drill up to the job.
