A go bag is critical. Documents, all medications, basic hygiene supplies, couple pairs of clothes, shelf stable food like high calorie energy bars should get you by.
My wife, go bag, pelican case, and in some circumstances the 12-gauge is all I’m taking if in a rush to get to safety.

You should watch some YouTube videos (there are many) of safes opened after they've been pulled out of fires. The internal temps get so hot in these safes that anything paper or plastic will most likely be ruined/melted if the fire is direct and lasts anytime at all. I think most home/gun safes are a great deterrent for theft, but I don't think the majority provide the fire protection they claim.
