Can I put a gun safe in my house?

As a concerned citizen, I must ask the following: In considering the installation of a gun safe within my residential property, am I adhering to all relevant safety regulations and legal requirements? Are there any zoning restrictions or building codes that I should be aware of before making such a decision? Additionally, what measures should I take to ensure the safety of my family members, especially children, in the event of an unauthorized access to the gun safe? Furthermore, how can I be certain that the gun safe I choose is of sufficient quality and durability to withstand potential threats? Lastly, are there any recommended practices or best practices that I should follow in maintaining and securing my gun safe?
