Gun Safes.....best prices for a good one in Metro Denver - Ideas, Recommendations?

[TresMonos]

Like the title says, I'm looking for a good quality mid size (10-ish long guns, shelving for handguns and maybe some minor trinkets) gun safe that I can purchase and they will deliver and place in the area I want it on the second floor of my house in my office. Also, I know it's pretty dry here but do I need a dehumidifier?

I prefer a dial over a keypad, needs a good fire rating too.

Other than Cabellas/Bass Pro...who has them at reasonable pricing?

[ray1970]

Not much help but as far as the dehumidifier I don?t find it necessary around here.

Actually, I lived down near Houston where humidity levels are generally rather high and never had a dehumidifier and never had any issues.

My stuff does come out of the safe and get used several times a year and I generally keep my stuff cleaned and lubed so that may help too.

Tractor supply has em, not sure on delivery

Tractor Supply has a contractor they use for delivery.

Murdochs also sells gun safes. Liberty and Rhino I think.

Whattya know, I'm not alone on the dial thing!

Not only am I afraid of the electronics failing in some "it's permanently locked" mode, but as the keypad wears, it gives away hints as to the combo - unless you change it frequently, which has its own set of problems.

Key pads are probably fine for a single gun "quick access" bedroom container, but definitely not for your main secure storage- I use dials or keys for those.

I just use a handful of reusable desiccant cases. Burn them in the oven when they turn colors.

Same (similar) with ammo. I try to hang onto the small packets that come with stuff and toss a few in an ammo can with the ammo if it isn't already sealed up with one. Any moisture that was in the can or ammo packing when sealed is now in the desiccant. Though all my stuff stays in the basement where it's cooler and dry.

Tractor Supply has the best prices on safes and a good selection. I’ve done plenty of shopping for them and their prices win.

I got mine at Walmart in Florida. "Sentry Brand" Paid $275 17 years ago. Smallest adequate safe I could move my self.
I'll sell it before I ever move it again. Backed up by Ring, professionally installed alarm system, video surveillance, etc.

I got a Liberty 1776 safe at Tractor Supply. It was on sale to begin with. I got a TSC credit card just to buy the safe because anything bought with the card gets 5% back if you join their free Neighbor's Club. I didn't have it delivered but could've. It turned out to be a screamin' deal. Not the best safe out there but certainly adequate for most needs. My only complaint is the interior is really cheaply done.

Other benefits of the card: 2 free 1-day trailer rentals per quarter, free same day delivery on stuff, etc...

Many delivery guys are contracted. Some move to where preferred. Some don't.

I got mine at Costco and they said they will move it down to a basement for free, because they missed the delivery window. I gave him extra $20 ( 10 years ago 20 was not 20 now).


Going to brand and model. I would say Liberty and similar variants are okay.
I have cannon safe and it withstand the home burglary.
They destroyed the safe pin pad and safe was not accessible.
Cannon safe Sent a guy to drill the safe and Sent me a bigger safe 3 mo later for free.

BTW drilled safe is fully usable now after getting the wire from inside linked to new key pad.

My son got his, a big one, at the Sportsmans Warehouse in Parker where he lives. Got a first responder discount too. The store put it in the back of my truck, Nissan Titan, and arranged for a mover to meet us at his home. 3 guys with multiple size dollys, took it out of my truck and put it where he wanted in the house.

Nearest TS to me is Castle Rock, only 18 miles, so I guess it's an option...Murdoch's though....didn't know they did safes. Thank You.

Never shopped there, nearest one is 32 miles away....but I'll check it. Thank You.

This may work too....Thank You.

I got mine at Colorado Safes in Wheatridge
They deliver and install ... with some restrictions on stairs depending on the weight of the safe
Fort Knox has an option for both key pad and dial for redundency

Opie aint around anymore but I got a big Ridgeline from him, decent unit but I gave it to the kid when I left.

There's an outfit on the south side of 70 between between Monaco and Quebec that I got my Champion from, good fire rating and I don't remember what I paid for it, but I don't remember getting hosed on it either. Guy had a lot of manufactures/sizes to choose from. That one is a dial as well.
