Do you own a gun? If so – what’s the reason? If you answered “for protection” then you’ll likely agree that even more protection can’t hurt. We're a huge proponent of gun safety and one smart way to achieve this is to have a gun safe or cabinet at your home.
People own guns for a variety of reasons. They may enjoy hunting or target practice. They may want protection against burglars, home invaders or kidnappers. Some folks collect guns as a hobby or as an investment. No matter what your reason for having firearms at home is, most agree that proper safety precautions should always be observed and this is especially so when children or guests are present.
Why a gun safe?
A gun safe or cabinet is a locking storage container made of wood or metal that keeps firearms and ammunition away from the wrong hands. Here in Cuyahoga Falls, OH we have many hunters and gun enthusiasts that have a variety of handguns, rifles, and other weapons that must be kept clean, safe and well maintained. We also have (like many communities) a portion of the population that is not careful with guns. They may have been exposed to guns at an early age and have lost any fear or respect for the weapon. Guns are often found under pillows or stuck in a dresser drawer or desk. They can be found leaning against a wall and often, fully loaded! All too often you hear of accidental and deliberate shootings at home or at the workplace all because the shooter had easy access to a loaded weapon. Sometimes children shoot each other while playing and coming across a loaded firearm. There have been reports of intruders shooting people with their own loaded guns, simply because they were left in plain sight and within easy reach.
Aren’t gun safes expensive?
Expensive is a relative term. We feel that if you can afford a gun and ammunition, you can afford a locking cabinet to store them in. You can find gun safes in every price range and for every budget. There are a myriad of designs and sizes so that you can secure the perfect cabinet for your style and budget needs. Gun safes not only secure your weapons from intruders, underage children and nosy neighbors, they also keep your firearms safe from dust, fire, cold, heat and wind; all of which are bad for your weapons to begin with.
There’s a gun safe model for everyone
Do you want to display your gun collection for guests, admirers or investors to see? Are you more interested in keeping your guns out of the wrong hands and have little to no interest in anyone’s opinion of them? Would you like your guns displayed stylishly yet securely? Do you crave privacy and security over anything else and want your guns hidden away but easily accessible? There are solutions to all of these needs and wants. If you are thinking of adding a gun safe to your home or business consider your motives and storage needs first, before you commit to a certain model or style.
Not just for guns!
It IS called a gun safe, after all! These locking weapons cabinets can also hold ammunition and even non-gun related items. Here in Cuyahoga Falls, OH we know of several people that use gun safes for different reasons. Some use them as a book shelf. Other people keep valuables inside their safe. A gun safe can be used much like a regular home safe as it does lock and it can be cleverly concealed for maximum privacy. Cash, art, passports, real estate deeds, car titles, rare coins, appraisals, flash drives, documents and many other items of value can be stored in your gun safe.
What if I need my gun in a hurry?
Our Cuyahoga Falls, OH crime rate is relatively low but that is no guarantee that you’ll never need to have access to your gun. Contrary to popular belief, you don’t sacrifice access by having a gun safe. People envision a criminal breaking into their home and rendering them defenseless since their loaded gun is locked away securely in a gun safe in another room. It doesn’t have to be this way. There are many ways of making your gun safe easily accessible by you (and only you!). You should work with a full service residential locksmith to plan on adding the right model with the right locking mechanisms and the right location in your home for maximum safety and placement. Gun safes can be installed with padlocks, keypads, fingerprint locks, combination dials and other methods of securing access.
Visit a safe store?
Safe stores are great for retailing a gun safe to you and little else. They typically rely on their locksmith to repair, service and maintain their residential and commercial gun safes. They even outsource their installation and set-up. Why not just call a locksmith? The advantages of doing so are many. An experienced and licensed lock professional will have access to the best gun safe models in the country. Locksmiths offer mobile service direct to your location along with same day service and warranty protection for whatever model you choose.
