Using a vault door to create a vault room will give you enough storage for any collection which includes personal heirlooms, guns, business and family records, jewelry, art work and photographs, or anything else you wish to protect in an entire room. Out-swing doors benefit those with limited vault room space. Door swing is away from the interior of the vault room.

A great alternative to buying safe after safe, is to buy one giant safe room in the form of a Vault Door. With a multi-function application including storm and natural disaster shelter, as well as a beautiful and secure way to store and display your most prized possessions, Vault Doors end up being the best bang for your buck when you have the collection to warrant them.

In terms of security, the Fort Knox Out-Swing 9648 Vault Door has a 5/8" reinforced fire door constructed with a Quadrafold door frame, with deep recessed door, 3/8" steel plate, one layer of fireboard and 10 gauge reinforcement. To ensure a proper installation, measure the dimension of your wall thickness. Standard wall thicknesses are 6"-12". On the door of the Fort Knox 9648 Out-Swing Vault Door lies an UL Approved Mechanical dial lock with optional electronic lock options or upgrade available. Both mechanical dial and electronic locks are protected by a drill stop hard plate with recessed multi-bearings.

After you enter the correct combination on the 9648 Vault Door and begin to turn the beautiful five-spoke & pull handle, you'll start feeling the twenty-six 1.5" chrome-plated locking bolts retract.

Once fully inside, you can close the vault door completely as Fort Knox intuitively added an interior release door handle that will allow exiting even if the door is closed. Hinge style on out-swing doors can be external hinge or concealed (for an additional cost). External hinge swings 180° while the concealed hinge swing radius is 110°. Right vs left swing is based on which side the hinges are on. Standing outside the room facing the front of the door your hinge will be on the right or the left.
