Like cars, gun safes offer a tremendous amount of product variances for all needs and budgets. Features, protection levels and other factors can vary from model to model. Are all of them needed? Maybe not, for cars at least (we’re looking at you, Mr. Whale Tail Spoiler), but when it comes to safes, these variances provide different benefits.
Here are a few of the most popular types of Browning Safes so you can narrow down which type is right for you.
1. Large and Medium Gun Safes
Browning is a renowned brand with a rich history in firearms, outdoor gear and safes. As such, the company offers a variety of safes for different types of firearms. There are long-gun safes for shotguns and rifles, smaller safes for pistols and everything in between. These safes come in different fire and security ratings—and dimensions vary, even if the safes are the same type—so you can choose one that fits your preferences.
2. Home Safes
Home safes aren’t that different from gun safes, but they don’t come with as many firearm-inspired features. Instead, their specifications are designed with security and convenience in mind. These can also vary in size, but all carry the same craftsmanship, durability and quality you’d expect from a Browning safe. Also, Browning has different lines of both gun safes and home safes (e.g., Core Series, Pro Series, etc.), so be sure to consult with a professional or look at online product descriptions to understand the differences.
3. Compact/Small Safes
If you’re looking to store handguns or pistols, a smaller safe might be the best option. This is especially true if you want to keep a handgun near you while sleeping, or in another area of your home for convenient and secure access. These can range from models that hold a single firearm and some ammunition to multiple firearms. It just depends on your desired dimensions and how you want to mount/store it.
4. Vaults/Vault Doors
Browning also has a selection of Vault Doors for those with the biggest storage needs. These provide protection for entire rooms of firearms and other valuables and models can swing outward or swing inward. Materials and features can also vary on these, but they’re usually available in most standard door frame sizes.
5. Rated Safes
For those with higher security needs, a fire or TL-rated safe may be in order. These safes are designed to withstand sophisticated criminal attacks, explosions and fires. For example, a TL-15 safe is tested to withstand 15 minutes of intense attack, while a TL-30 is designed for 30 minutes. Both gun safes and home safes can be specially rated. Again, a Browning safe expert can help you decide if a rated safe is right for you.
