The Top 3 Best Gun Safes

Many people that want to buy a gun safe look for the very best gun safe first. Below is a list of the top 3 best gun safes available at TheSafePlace.com. It is important to note this list is for gun safes that measure at or near 60” tall, measure at or near 30” wide. This is the most common size. Generally, the larger the gun safe, the more competition in quality. Also keep in mind there is only one model from each company allowed in the comparison. We did not think it would be fair to include 2 safes from the same company.  Lastly all the gun safes analyzed were those available at TheSafePlace.com.

Similarities among all three

While there is quite a bit of difference between these gun safes, they do have some things in common. All three safes have 4 way bolt work. All three safes are available in a variety of glossy colors. They all come standard with the same S&G mechanical lock. They all have a fire rating of 90 minutes. All of these gun safes have a look and feel of quality that can be instantly acknowledged after opening the door. Another similarity is their weight. All three gun safes are around 1,000 lbs. When shopping for a safe the first question should be: “how much does it weigh?” The heavier it is, the stronger it is.

Fort Knox Titan 6031

The Fort Knox Titan 6031 comes standard with an S&G group II mechanical locking dial and is fire rated for 90 minutes at 1680°F. The S & G includes a key lock and a spy proof dial.  The Titan has 18 bolts each measuring 1½-inch in diameter. It weighs the heaviest out of the three at 1218 lbs. The Titan safes are a uni-body construction measuring a total of 1¾ inch thick. That includes the 3/16-inch outer body and the included 10 gauge reinforced steel liner. The door has a 3/8-inch thick steel plate and a 10 gauge outer steel liner. This gun safe has a total door thickness of 1¾ inch. The body is constructed of a heavy 3/16" steel outer body with a 10 gauge inner steel liner.

The Fort Knox Titan 6031 has a look and feel that clearly demonstrates quality.  One key feature that sets the Fort Knox gun safe apart from others is the ability to customize the construction of the safe. For an added cost Fort Knox can include  extra steel liners for the inner body, thicker steel for the outside of the safe, and even a thicker safe door.  Some other key features include a unique rack and pinion gear drive mechanism, corner bolts, and a dual fire seal. Keep in mind there are more Fort Knox safes available on our website.

Manufacturer: Fort Knox

Retail Price Range: $4500-$4200

Superior Master 25 (M-25)

The Superior Master 25 gun safe (M-25) comes standard with an S&G group II dial lock. It is fire rated for 90 min at 1500°F. The dial has is spy spoof with a key. The M-25 has 18 bolts like the Titan, but each bolt is 1¼" in diameter.  This is the lightest of the three gun safes: 850 lbs. The safe body is a thick 11 gauge body with three layers of fire protection. The safe door has a 3/8” steel plate. While the Master 25 doesn’t have an array of construction options like the Titan, it does have an impressive patented Double-step door construction. Keep in mind there are more Superior Safes available as well.

Manufacturer: Superior Safe Co.

Retail Price Range: $2200-$2000

American Security BF6030

The American Security BF6030 is by far the most popular of the three featured gun safes. The BF6030 has a 90 minute fire rating at 1275°F. Unlike any other gun safe manufacturer American Security has a patented insulation poured between the steel called DryLight.  DryLight is only found in the high-end AMSEC gun safes. The BF6030 has a thick ½” steel plate on the outside of the door. While this safe only has 11 bolts, it is still sufficient and impressive. Keep in mind there are more AMSEC safes with similar options.

Manufacturer: AMSEC

Retail Price Range: $3000-$2500

The Gun Safe, Fire Safe, Burglary Safe Chronicles: Fire Safe Essentials

The Gun Safe, Fire Safe, Burglary Safe Chronicles: Fire Safe Essentials

You buy a fire safe with some consideration for the potential heat a fire would or could produce, in your situation, in a worst case scenario. I mean, why buy a fire safe at all unless it protects what you’re putting in it?

Buy a fire safe that has more space than you initially think you need. You’ll use it, trust me. 

A lot of fire safes have fire ratings that are only tested by the factories.  It is rare to find a safe with a third party fire rating.  American Security offers a U.L. listed fire safe with a 2 hour fire rating.  The Safe Place has a U.L. 1812 model featured on their website.  This fire safe is tested and complies with the Underwriters Laboratory Class 350 degrees which consists of a 2 hour fire rating designed to keep valuables safe from temperatures up to 1850 degrees and a three story burning building impact rating.  This is a fire safety test designed to keep the internal temperatures of the safe below 350 degrees which is where paper starts to char being the first thing of value to be destroyed. 


Buy a fire safe only after having at least one conversation with an expert, a gun safe dealer (not someone or some company that bought a few safes and is now trying to sell them --there’s a BIG difference in expertise between a salesperson and a person who lives and breaths safes and security.

 Dear Mr. Callos,


First, allow me to thank you for the gun safe I recently bought from you. It’s the right size, it’s the right color, and most of all, it’s sturdy enough to protect the things I want to protect. As you might remember, I’d come to The Safe Place because I was the victim of a home burglary. 


While my wife and I were away on holiday, someone broke into our home and carried off a lot of things we considered precious and valuable, things we should have locked in a safe like we have now. In our case, something good came out of something bad; we now pay a lot more attention to what we leave laying around --and what we put out of reach of people who shouldn’t have their hands in our things.

Your statement, “Expect the best, prepare for the worst,” really hit home with us after the burglary, and thanks to you we’re now better prepared. My advice to people who own safe-sized valuables (guns, high tech gear, collectibles, jewelry, heirlooms, etc.) is to call The Safe Place and get a wholesale price on a fun, fire, or burglary safe that will keep those things from being stolen. Period.”


Thanks again,


Victor (last name withheld by request).

The Gun Safe, Fire Safe, and Burglary Safe Chronicles: A cheap gun safe or an expensive gun safe, which one is the better deal?

A cheap gun safe or an expensive gun safe, which one is the better deal?

If you have 3 inexpensive rifles you want to keep out of the wrong hands the safe you buy would be far different than the one you'd purchase to protect a $10,000 collectible shotgun, cameras, computer equipment, and a coin collection. If you're on a tight budget or you're looking for the best safe money can buy, the first step is to talk to an expert, someone who isn't out to "sell" you, but to inform you of your options.

The Safe Place is a wholesaler that sells to the general public, so you simply can't find better safes and better prices anywhere in the country. The BEST safe you can buy is the one that perfectly fits your needs.

The Gun, Fire, and Burglary Safe Chronicles: How Many Guns Should (Can) My Safe Hold

How many guns should my gun safe hold?



You have many options for rifle and pistol storage. You can buy a gunsafe that holds 3 rifles, or 30 rifles, or 48 rifles, and this morning I was looking over one of our safes that easily holds 66 rifles. The best thing to do, before buying, is to access your needs for storage, then phone us for any special bargains or options we might be able to supply. If you have the need to store more that 60 rifles, there might be a vault in your future --or a dicount price on two safes?

The Gun Safe, Fire Safe, and Burglary Safe Chronicles What Size Gun safe?

The Gun Safe, Fire Safe, and Burglary Safe Chronicles
What size gun safe?

The standard rule of thumb when buying any kind of safe is to buy bigger than you think you need, as inevitably you will be storing things in your safe that you hadn’t thought about. Computers, cameras, jewelry, ammo, expensive collectibles, pricey tools, records, and any number of other things will eventually find their way in among your rifles and pistols.

Gun Safes And GunSafes, Whatever You Call it, Buy it at the Lowest Price

To buy a safe, whether it's a gunsafe, gun safe, fire safe, wall, floor, or vault door, the best way to go about it is to talk to someone who really, REALLY knows safes (their advice could save you $100's, if not $1000's in money spent --or valuables saved).

Factors that make a safe inexpensive --or more expensive, that make it more --or less --susceptible to forced entry, and what kind of insulation protects in what kind of fires, all of these things can be made clear, in short order, by someone who knows the business. Call us, The Safe Place, 775-358-7233.

For a low price, for the best price, for a Christmas, Father's Day, or Birthday present, for a safe that protects your valuables to the degree they're worth (don't buy an $800 "safe" to protect $10,000 in jewelry), talk to us, first --and save money, time, and hassles.
