Years of feedback from customers about gunvault safes

We’ve been using them ourselves for almost 10yrs and there have been big changes to the product  line since we started using them.  The buttons have chang, the doors have changed and now they are making some of the best compact or small gun safes.   I guess its due to the bad economy  but we have sold more and more of the Gunvault microvault and nanovaults in recent  months to people using them in cars.  Not only are these good car safes for your firearm, but they are great for locking up and securing cash.  Every township or State is different regarding gun laws and security can vary from bank to bank.  Here in Pennsylvania some banks have metal detectors and you can’t carry a firearm in without setting off an alarm, you have to take it off of you when going in.

There are some criticisms about some of the biometric safes but they run more reliable than firearms.  Depending on which gunvault safes you are looking to purchase, there are battery operated ones and electrical ones.   I would suggest always using batteries and actually hiding the safe in a close and not out in the open.  Many people forget that gun safes that are not properly bolted down can easily just be picked up with a  hand truck or physically carried out of the house.   You can customize the way  you secure your gun safe in a car or a vehicle.  You may want to walk into a store that stocks them because matching up firearms to gun safes is something you want to think about ahead of time before you attach something to a gun and find out the safe doesn’t work for you anymore.

Gunvault gun safes what size do you want?

I have several gun safes in my home and not all of them are for firearms.  I think it’s a responsible thing to do to put important documents in a safe like Birth Certificates, Marriage records and other things.  But how big of a safe do you need?  What if your wife wants to put jewelry in it?  What about firearms?   What size gun are we talking about and do you want a flashlight or something else?  A large safe in the basement is the way to go for locking up firearms but for use every day you really want something smaller like a gunvault safe.

You might want to stop in a stocking store though because not all gunvault safes are going to get the job done.  Some of the larger safes like the Deluxe model are pretty big even for a closet and gunvault safes also come in a much smaller version like the Gunvault Nanovault and the Gunvault minivault are for cars, travel or hidden locations.  Some safes also are designed with the biometric technology and are very useful for those that want quick access without having to push buttons or use keys.

There is no compromise anymore

Everyone in the concealed carry market talk about concealment and which firearm is easier to hide, but those debates have so many variables and just like trying to get a pair of pants to fit on everyone of different sizes, it’s just not going to work for everyone.   There are some things which remain constant and there is no variable and that one issue is gun safety.   I’m not just talk about range safety and gun handling, I’m also talking about where you put your firearm and how you prevent others from getting  a hold of it.  I have several friends that told me that they grew up with firearms that were not locked up, but things are different now.

If you look at the statistics on firearm thefts and how guns end up in the streets, its always straw purchase and gun thefts.   IF you are looking to have an alarm system installed in your home consider this, most gunvault safes are very easy to bolt into areas that are hard to find and given the modern biometric technology, you aren’t compromising your ability to retrieve a firearm quickly and you reduce your chances of having your stuff stolen if you do have a break in.  Most burglars want to move fast and they can’t find the safe or it’s in a hard to detach location chances are you will not loose your stuff.
