home safe

Back without incident

A home safe is a small, secure container kept in a residence for storing valuables, documents, or cash.

Home safes vary from fireproof boxes to wall-mounted units with combination locks: We keep the passports in the home safe.

The term also appears as an adjective phrase meaning having arrived safely at one's residence: Text me when you're home safe.
