Handgun Safes

A handgun safe is the most appropriate storage for your pistol, effectively keeping it away from thieves and the curious hands of children. Lacka Safe offers several different handgun and pistol safes to fit your security needs.

Studies show that as much as 45 percent of respondents acknowledge that they keep at least one firearm at home. Handguns are among the most popular type of firearms because they are easy to obtain and are an effective means of self-defense. However, improper storage of guns in households can cause serious accidents.

According to the Census Bureau, there were 789 deaths due to the accidental discharge of firearms in 2010. Additionally there have been plenty of reports of burglars breaking into people's homes to steal guns. A pistol safe can help prevent incidents like these from occurring.

A Quick Guide to Buying a Handgun Safe

Pistol safes may appear to be all the same because they have been designed for one specific purpose—to offer protective storage for your firearm. Before choosing just any type of gun safe, however, you need to consider a few details.

Size

Safes for handguns usually come in two size categories: those that are small enough to fit in your drawer and those that are slightly larger and heavier. A drawer-fitting safe is better for home or business owners who want their weapon concealed but accessible. A small gun safe can be placed conveniently in a bedside drawer or in a store manager's desk drawer.

Bolting and Mounting Options

Because of its small size, an ordinary handgun safe can be carried away with all its contents to be cracked open in another location. Fortunately, some can be bolted on to the floor or mounted on a wall to frustrate thieves.

Incidentally, mounting a safe can also provide more convenient access.

Lock

A pistol safe usually has an electronic lock with either an electronic keypad or a biometric scanner for more advanced models. Both have the advantage of being quicker and easier to open than a combination or key lock. A biometric lock uses the owner's fingerprint to grant access. High security safes with these types of lock offer quick access to the firearms inside the unit and limit the number of people that can access them.

Storage Options

Despite their size, there are small gun safe models that come with adjustable shelves to help you organize your gun accessories or ammo more efficiently. A handgun safe can also be used to store other valuables. Keeping your belongings in different shelves allows you to reach your handgun without having to fumble over other items.

A handgun safe can offer you considerable peace of mind. We at Lacka Safe can offer you a variety of pistol safes and also offer larger gun safes for rifles. To help you choose, you can call one of our safe specialists at 1-800-654-5213.
