3 Advantages of Using an Electronic Lock Gun Safe

Sometimes, guns are all that stand between a potential threat and your property and loved ones. When that time comes, you better have them nearby. Until they’re needed, however, they should be securely stored. 

When you need added protection for your guns, an electronic lock gun safe keeps them secure and accessible in case of emergencies. Here are three advantages to protecting your guns with electronic locks instead of traditional, mechanical combination locks.

Added Convenience 

Properly securing your guns is part of being a responsible gun owner. Keeping them within reach during an emergency is part of being a responsible homeowner. Finding the balance between the two can be challenging. 

Nobody has the time to turn a mechanical lock around if a thief is in the next room or whenever a raccoon stumbles into the trash cans outside. However, unsecured guns can result in unintentional shootings and deaths—especially with children in the house. 

Electronic lock gun safes retain safety features like live-action locking bolts and deadbolts while offering quick access to your weapons when it counts. Also, their illuminated, battery-powered keypads allow you to change your combination anytime.

Endless Customization

There is a lock gun safe for every taste, and American Security (AMSEC) designs and engineers the best of them. For an old-school yet advanced lock, Rotobolt Redundant locks combine elements from electronic keypads and mechanical combination dials.

Popular customization options include adjustable AR gun and pistol racks, and rich pin-dot fabric to fit almost any safe. AMSEC also designs more unique safes, like its sleek, slide-out Defense Vault, which fits under most beds and uses an electronic lock for easy access, even when the room is dark.
