need a safe

General silencer discussion. If you want to talk about a specific silenced rifle or pistol, it is best to do that in the rifle or pistol section for that brand.

need a safe

Post by karlglen101 »

Hello. I am looking for a mechanical locked safe (push button) that will house a 1911 or Glock with can attached. Total width / depth needed to fit with can attached will be around 15.5" for the 1911, and a little less for the Glock.
I have searched the interwebs and am not finding any "laptop" or similar safes that are push button (mechanical).
All help is appreciated.

Perfect. I had not even considered boxes like these. That gives me plenty to go with, I really appreciate it!

The locks are available for purchase alone as well so with access to some sheet metal and a welder the options are virtually limitless.

I was originally going to pickup one of those key box safes, but after some further research, it seems like those locks are unreliable. I will look more at the medical safes, but was trying to keep the cost down. I guess you get what you pay for :roll:
If Fort Knox or the like made something in the size I need, I'd buy it in a heartbeat because I know the cost will deliver what I need. Which is something that will open without fail when there is a bump in the night.

Unless you are going to spring some real cash for a real lock most cash boxes or similar small safes are easily defeated. The lock is often the weakest piece of security on many of those boxes.

More than enough to stop mischievous children or slow down the casual thief.

If Fort Knox made something that size it would probably have a similar cheap lock on it.

Here are the Fort Knox boxes ... very nice videos.

Controlled Access Box Safe

Add a secondary locking box inside your safe for those other items you don’t want anyone to see. They come in 3 sizes for your convenience and all come with the simplex lock and a Lifetime Warranty. Have access only when you want!

CAB20 20″ x 9″ x 16″ 43lbs

CAB24 24″ x 9″ x 18″ 55lbs

CAB28 28″ x 9 x 18″ 63lbs
