Williamson County Gun Safe and Wall Safe Installation
Anchored so it cannot be carried out, placed where it is not the first thing a burglar sees, and moved in without tearing up your floors. Install a safe you already own, or buy one through us.
A safe that is not bolted down is a container with your valuables in it and a handle for carrying them out. Most safes leave the factory with anchor holes already drilled in the base, and most of them end up in houses where nobody ever used those holes. The installation is what turns a safe into storage that survives a burglary.
What we install
Gun safes and long-gun cabinets, anchored into slab or framing. Wall safes go between the studs and finish flush with the drywall, which is the whole point of them. Where the slab allows it, a floor safe disappears completely.
Buy the safe yourself and we install it, or buy one through us and we handle both. The anchoring, the placement, and the clean-up are the same either way.
Anchoring is the job
On a concrete slab, the safe is fixed with anchors set into the concrete through the factory holes in its base. On a raised floor, it goes into framing rather than into subfloor alone. A safe under about 750 pounds can be tipped and walked out by two people in under a minute if it is only sitting on the carpet, and weight on its own is not what stops that.
Where the safe should go
An interior wall beats an exterior one, and out of sight from windows and the front door beats convenient. The garage is the most common choice and the worst: it is the least protected part of the house, its contents are on display every time the door rolls up, and it sits on the route an intruder is already taking.
Getting it into the house
Weight, door widths, turns, stairs, and floor protection are worked out before the day rather than on it. A 700-pound safe and a 32-inch doorway is a problem to solve in advance, and finding it on delivery day is how safes end up parked in hallways.
What it costs
Price depends on the weight, the path in, whether there are stairs, and what the safe anchors into. We use our experience and what you need the safe to do to advise you on the best selection of safes we trust to install.
Questions we get about this
Can you install a safe I already bought? Yes.
Do I need a safe if I already have a gun lock? They answer different problems. A trigger or cable lock keeps a firearm from being fired; a safe keeps it from leaving the house.
