Gun Safe, where to buy?

[h20hunter]

So, now that I have the space and a little cash I'm looking to buy a stand up big boy gun safe. I've been told to buy big and will pretty much go as big as I can afford/fit in the room via access points. I'm not to hung up on brand but will stick with known manufactures. The question is....where? Costco? Cabelas? Home Depot? I need delivery and transportation into the gun room. This is on the basement level so I've got plenty of support underneath it.

Sportsman's is another place to look.  You could have a BBQ and beerfest for HuntWa and probably get it moved down into you basement.

Northwest safe in Enumclaw. They have delivery and a bunch of safes on the show room floor including most of the bigger name brands. They also have their own brand that is a good deal cheaper than the big names and has all of the same specs. I picked up one of their 24 gun safes back in April and am happy with it.

They will deliver and install anywhere you want it in the house. I had them deliver and install on 2nd level out at Granite...I think they charged something like $300 for delivery.

Also keep in mind, no sales tax on safes so you can bump it up a bit without hurting the wallet

Nice.....I had found the website for the location in E'claw....will have to check that out. Thanks.

Their website is pretty crappy and only shows the liberty line. I know they also carry Summit and Superior along with a few other brands. They also regularly have scratch and dent safes that you can get at a discounted price.

I bought mine at Del's Feed in Monroe. They matched pricing for me.. I got the Cannon 48 gun ($800), plenty of room for future procurement. I loaded it in my Dakota and the wife and I moved it up 4 steps, thru the house and into place. I used 2x4's and a 2" wooden dowel to roll it thru the yard and house. "picture Fred Flintstone" 

I just helped a friend get his upstairs. We used an appliance dolly. took 4 of us, but only 10 minutes. 

By some beer and have a BBQ, it'll get moved for ya.      Plenty of us in LS

Also, Costco is a good route, but their inventory is always changing.

I laid mine down and slide it on the carpet to the stairs, then slide it on cardboard downstairs with a strap on it to lower it, then slide it into place......when i sell the house it goes with it 

I also had some help

I did something similar, but used a come-along to get it up and down the stairs.

What did you hook the comealong to? cross beam in a door frame?

Another thing...if you do drive down to Enumclaw, they will want pictures, the number of stairs, how wide the hallway and stairs are with and without handrails, dimensions of landings on top and bottom of stairs....thing's like that. Gather all of the information beforehand and safe yourself the headache that I went through.

I originally purchased the Fatboy and as soon as I got home and had all the information, they told me that they couldn't install it where I wanted to so I drove back down there to pick out a different safe that would make it up my stairs. Not a big deal but quite the drive for us north-enders....

Forget the safe h20, build a really cool false wall in the man room with a secret opener..
