@@qk533000 I can take a carbide blade and a circular saw to ANY 5k plus safe and be in it in 5 min or less. It’s not a bank vault its a storage cabinet you still put in your bedroom closet that don’t weight 1000 plus lbs and isn’t going to blow through the floor or mess up your house. This is made from 12g steel and so it a 5k 1000 lb safe.
I’m a volunteer fire fighter no safe makes it though a complete burn down everything inside gets cooked some exceptions are if they where stored in the basement and the fire was put out before the house collapsed on top of it. This is a storage cabinet not a safe. You want false security buy any safe under 5k I’ll cut into it with a carbide blade and a circular saw in less then 5 min....
Update: Got my answer 12 but did not come without flaws. What I don't like about it is how to top and bottom bolts don't sit flush with the body of the safe. You can literally rock the doors back and forth a good 1/16th of an inch or more. Don't know if that was intentional. I think I should be able to fix that be tacking a piece of angle on the lip. Still excited for the purchase.
Any chance of a pry test comparison? Also a cut comparison? I get the sheet metal might be similar but the fire “resistance “ I’m sure aids in slowing the cut and the traditional gun safe if bolted down has a lot more pry resistance with multiple bolts from what it seems. Just trying to weigh all options and be as informed as possible.
Justin, Thank you for posting a comment! Lot's of safe companies use the pry test to demonstrate security. Our safes will resist prying as well as others. The real threat is a modern battery operated circular saw with a cheap carbide blade. If you have seen some of our other videos, you know I can cut a big, heavy (Liberty) safe in half in less the 90 seconds. Our safes are designed to be placed throughout your home in locations thieves don;t look. - See our article: www.secureitgunstorage.com/the-four-places-in-your-home-you-must-store-firearms/ We do not offer a fire rating. other than "TL" Rated safes which cost north of 6K and weight 2000lbs, fire ratings are a myth. see my presentation from the SHOT Show: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eRPz6IKdiK4.html We bring a military thought process to consumer firearms storage. Old bank vault style heavy safes are incompatible with modern lifestyle. People are far more mobile now. The average person moves every 6.3 years. Traditional drywall heavy gun safes offer little in real protection and are anchors that slow you down. Old heavy safes also centralize your firearms into a single location. This is bad for security and home defense.
Your guns would cook inside of a fireproof safe it's not worth buying unless you live next to a fire station or within 15 minutes and as far as protection goes it's good to put it in a location that the thieves cant reach the sides of the safe to cut it open like a cramp corner of the closet, I'm sure this safe could withstand a pry bar. I hope this helped.
Oh and I have a suggestion for what to put on the doors is the Gun Room / Gun Wall Panel - Large so I can hang so weapons sideways and stack AR mag holders down the doors.
I have seen a lot of the secure it videos and anytime someone asks about fire or security, they talk shit about traditional safe but they never really talk about how fire safe and secure secure it is. Talking shit about competition doesn’t make your product better. I am seriously considering secure it. But my questions is if a secure it safe and a traditional safe is put side by side. And if I put a block of wax inside and start a fire which block of wax melt first? Is secure it going to take the same time as the traditional safe? I don’t care how far the fire station is , my question is very simple. Would it be the same amount of time? My second question is if a traditional safe and secure it are put side by side and someone with a power grinder or cutter starts cutting the side , would it take the same time to cut through? Would it take longer ? Same time? Quicker? I don’t want you to tell me what traditional safes don’t do, tell me what secure it does?
We have posted several video and I speak on the subject of fire quite often. I will address this question on our next live "This week at SecureIt" show. Not trying to bash others but... when an entire industry is blowing smoke up your ass what should you do? The whole industry basically lies about capacity and fire ratings. Note I will cook off several safes this spring and post a video. Please tune into our Live weekly youtube show "This Week At SecureIt" and bring up these issues!
When I can afford to build an armory with a vault door, motion sensors and IR detection then I’ll buy some of these storage lockers. Till then I’ll buy much heavier gun safes that can be bolted to the floor, resistant to fire and know nobody’s gonna roll down the street with it while I’m on vacation
They don't need to roll down the street with it. They can buy a $10 harbor freight grinder and cut a hole in the side of your formaldehyde walls in about 10 mins
@@alexaronow9316 I notice SI fanboys have the same exact response, like word for word. Good luck w your China grinder on my safe, because it's an actual safe, not a locked file cabinet. And not every safe has cheap formaldehyde drywall, in fact my safe is just metal, no drywall at all. If you buy one of these cabinets use them like the military does, surround your house w hundreds of armed guards.
@@funkfarmer7125 lol I have like 9 angle grinders, none of which are from harbor freight. I promise I could get into your beloved steel box before burning up one of my grinders.
I think the concept is awesome, but very over priced! for the amount of long guns i own i would have to purchase 3 of the big models which would be over 4k when i bought a single gun safe that fits them for 1k and that is not including all of my handguns. work on the prices and i would own a few. you probably say well all of your guns are stacked on top of each other, and yes you would be correct but convenience is not worth 3k more.
I appreciate this design BUT to say this cabinet somehow ensures your firearms are working properly vs. what a normal safe offers is ridiculous. Why would storing firearms in a normal safe impact the specific weapon's functionality? Otherwise I like it. Seems like it has great convenience to keep the fighting weapons stored in the closet. Fortunately I have the option to put a larger safe in a second location at my home. For someone else who doesn't have this option, it may be an issue.
Question about the TrueSafe. Does it have a formal UL rating? In many of your past videos you were very harsh on other companies with their lack of a UL rating above RSC and their doctored fire tests, so I was wondering if the TrueSafe has one or will be getting one?
Let me see if I understand your superior military technology correctly... Put guns in a very flimsy but well organized cabinet and then hide the cabinet in the closet so the bad guys won't find it. Is that about the size of it?
Pretty much, just hide it in a closet, pull some hanging clothes in front of it, thieves will never ever look in your closet, and even if they do, the ol suit in front of it ploy will work like a charm.........
These are brand new! developed for the Marine Corps. We have just finished the prototypes and are going into production they should be available this summer. The piece snaps onto out upper cradle. We will have info released on this in about 3 weeks
Part of the security of traditional gun safes is the weight. A legit fire-rated safe will come in around 500lbs. Why purchase a safe that two guys can carry out of your home?
Too much salesman talk and not enough realistic civilian application. The military has different needs. They only need organization. If their equipment was damaged our taxpayer dollars would be real quick in getting them new equipment. For civilians, organization is probably the least important. Though this safe is smaller. If it wasn't hidden what would be quicker for a thief, a potentially cluttered safe or the uncluttered cabinet?
