Oly Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 I'm thinking of some new gun security but I need it to be wall mounted, one shotgun deep but long enough to hold quite a few guns in a row. I was wondering if anyone: a.) knew of any such designs already available on the market for sale, or b.) can point me in the direction of anyone who can make such tailor made gun cabinets to the customers specification? Cheers, Oly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swiss.tony Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 not really any help to you but my mate turned a old cubard in to a gun room steel plated all walls and roof ,floor heater plus small light and a door to die for the type they fit on to cash points think the door cost him best part of a grand. Bit over kill if you ask me but cops were happy with it but for 12 guns he could of just bought a bigger cabinet or evan had 2 of them side by side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDAV Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 You can buy similar ore made but pricey any steel fabricator should be able to make from your dims with HO guidance on construction or ring DJS and Bratton sound etc rotner make some big ones....

Oly Posted February 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Jolly, not quite what I was talking about but thanks for sharing! I'm after a custom steel cabinet/storage so that I can store a reasonable amount of guns without taking up too much space in the house (hence tailored/custom), not a cupboard to hide a cabinet. HDAV - Yep, not sure if the big names would do a custom one, would be worth a call though...nothing ventured, nothing gained! Wonder whether a steel shuttered roll up/down door would be permitted...

HDAV Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) Roller shutter could work but needing to be 3mm would be heavy local fabricator may be best option. There are other manufacturers out there Edited February 22, 2012 by HDAV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oly Posted February 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Does anyone know if they type/spec of security at many gun dealers - i.e. a metal bar/chain/wire through all the triggers of the guns on a rack that is presumably bolted onto a brick wall? Or are they only allowed that due to the other security that they have in place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDAV Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Normally RFD's have top line security for the whole building, barred windows, reinforced doors, shutters, plated/meshed walls and ceilings as well as Top spec alarms + monitoring CCTV etc etc etc So the whole building is a gun safe. Then guns chained up or locked into cabinets...... Most also have strong rooms inside! But even all of this can be beaten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
