Modular Designs for Safe, Easy Assembly

In addition to being highly durable and secure, we want our safes to conveniently assemble and disassemble. That’s why we build Zanotti Armor gun safes with six easy-to-handle interlocking panels (including the doors) that are designed to be assembled in around 20 minutes using a hammer and 3/8” solid steel pins to lock the component walls in place. This design provides all the features and benefits of a one-piece welded safe with the added bonus of mobile versatility. Our safes can even be assembled in tight spaces, making them perfect for any home or business setting, from apartments and houses to offices and sporting goods stores!

  • A 3/16” recessed steel door with a 3/8” drill-resistant hardened lock plate

  • A minimum of 5 ¾” diameter nickel-plated, active-locking deadbolts that secure both sides of the door (even when the hinges are removed)
