Fort Knox Defender Gun Safes — Great Protection at a Moderate Price!

Fort Knox Defender Gun Safes offer you the same security features as the Protector Series without the cosmetic frills. The durable textured finishes on the Fort Knox Defender guard against nicks, dings and scratches, yet still present a handsome appearance. Fort Knox Defender -- the best value for a conservative budget.

These Fort Knox gun safes have been tested by Underwriters Laboratories and have been granted a Residential Security Container (RSC) burglary rating. They have been independently tested and carry a certification for 90 minute fire protection at temperatures up to 1650 degrees F. The reinforced fire door is now standard on all models.

The 1/4-inch thick steel door, the many lock features on these safes - including the Sargent and Greenleaf Group II manipulation resistant lock, the clutch drive handle and the FOIL™ mechanical backup re-locking device offer a tough barrier against burglary.
The uni-body construction of the Defender Series gives you a 1 1/2-inch total body thickness.
The interior is fully lined, including the back panel on the door, with a durable carpet which is velcro friendly. This allows you to apply velcro holsters directly to the walls and doors to hold your handguns.
On the Defender Series of these Fort Knox gun safes, the dead bolts (bolts that do not move) have been replaced with active bolts that actually retract into the door to allow it open. These active bolts are located on both sides and the top and the bottom of the door. There are up to thirteen 1 1/2-inch diameter locking bolts on each safe.
