Don't know if this helps but I've had to store some documents for my mother since my father died and I got a small fireproof document safe from Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0158OFOC6/ . Its a little expensive but its the cheapest one that is actually rated as being fireproof - forget all the cheap chinese document bag tat that is about as fireproof as a can of petrol.

Wake me up when it's all over.
