Browning 1878 Clamshell Vault Door Out Swing

The Browning Vault Door is the perfect solution for the person who has “more than a few guns” in their collection. In fact, needing a Browning Vault Door in your home is a dream come true for many of us.

The Vault Door allows you to build a Browning level of security into a special room in your home or office. If your vault is designed to protect people as well, the inward swinging door is a must. In the event of physical debris blocking your door in the aftermath of a tornado or other natural disaster, you’ll be glad that you can get out after your vault has provided its protection to you and those you hold dear.

Browning Vault Doors don’t try to disguise the fact that a highly secure area is behind them. They are simply highly secure. Period! A properly built vault room allows you the greatest amount of latitude and creativity in the way your guns are displayed. For those of us with collections of unique and rare guns it gives the ability to show or display the guns without moving them in and out of a conventional safe, risking dings and scratches. A vault room using a Browning Vault Door also adds greater versatility allowing safe and secure storage of expensive gear, documents, heirlooms and more.

Work with your contractor.
Or if you are handy, plan it out yourself to design a room that is fully secure top, sides and bottom. This usually involves concrete walls or concrete filled blocks for walls, a secure reinforced ceiling (suspended concrete is ideal), some attention to fire resistance in the walls and ceiling and a sized door location that will fit a Browning Vault Door and the appropriate anchor fasteners.

Send the right message.
When all is said and done, for an extensive collection of guns, art or large valuables, a walk-in vault is the ultimate in convenience. To finish off these built-in security areas, Browning clearly offers the finest Vault Door. Vault Doors add strength and a “don’t tread on me” safe-like appearance to your home.
