OUR SAFES
Essential Gun Safes
NO GIMMICKS. JUST REAL PROTECTION.
Built with thick, high-quality steel walls, reinforced door construction, and supported deadbolts designed to resist forced entry. Our heavy steel offers substantially more protection against prying and power-tool attacks than the thinner steel commonly found in similarly priced safes.
See Our Construction
Our fire-lined safes use 2.5" of 2300°F ceramic wool, the same type of insulation used in industrial kilns. We publish our materials, don't rely on inflated fire-rating claims, and have real-world results from safes and vault doors that survived actual house fires.
See Our Fire Protection
Our fully welded, heavy-duty linkage uses fewer moving parts and properly supported deadbolts. It's designed for strength and reliability, not flashy bolt counts, and built to resist damage even if the door is slammed with the deadbolts extended.

The Steel Doesn't Lie
Not all gun safes are built the same. Before you trust a safe with your valuables, take a closer look at the steel protecting them.

4-gauge steel body. Nearly 1/4" thick.
And that's just the body. Our Heavy-Duty Most Popular package also features a 3/8" solid steel door. We believe a burglar should have to WORK for what's inside.

Our Heavy Duty safes feature a 4-gauge (.224") steel body and a 3/8" solid steel door plate. That's nearly twice the body steel thickness of many comparably priced gun safes.
Our Essential line starts with 3/16" steel body construction. We also offer additional steel upgrades for customers who want even more protection.
We publish our steel specifications because you deserve to know exactly what you're paying for.
Instead of relying on conventional gypsum-based fireboard, our fire-lined safes use 2.5 inches of 2300°F ceramic wool insulation. It's a high-temperature insulation material also used in industrial heating applications.
Fireboard is commonly used in fire-resistant building construction. We prefer ceramic wool because it's designed specifically for insulating against extreme heat.
