Vault mapping is the practice of drawing where backups live—not what they say. Site Maple Path produces paper floor plans and location ledgers so you, co-signers, and heirs can find seed storage without searching every drawer or calling every bank branch from memory.

What a vault map includes

Each map is drawn to scale when room dimensions are available, or as a schematic when we map multiple sites (home, office, bank). Symbols indicate safes, deposit boxes, fireproof bags, and sealed envelopes. A companion table lists institution names, box numbers, key holders, and last verified access dates.

We never mark seed phrase text on these diagrams. Labels reference ledger codes established during a paper backup cataloging session.

Sample schematic layout

On-site process

  1. Walkthrough — We tour storage areas with you. You open every container; we observe placement only.
  2. Measurement — Room sketches note distances from landmarks (door hinge, window, power outlet) for safe repositioning.
  3. Institution coordination — For deposit boxes, mapping occurs during your scheduled access. We do not request independent bank entry.
  4. Delivery — One master map on archival paper, one reduced copy for heirs, and a digital-free duplicate stored in your ledger binder.

Combine with cataloging

Vault mapping alone suits clients who already maintain a written index. Most first-time clients pair mapping with a cataloging session so reference codes align across documents.
