    THESE ARE SPECIAL ORDERED CUSTOM DELUXE SAFES AND NOT STANDARD CATALOG ITEMS

    NEW! All of our current in-stock Medallion safes are specially ordered custom units with optional features usually found on more expensive models. These are not standard catalog safes.

    Non-standard features are:
    • Factory Installed Lighting Kit
    • Mirror: Really helps, especially when in a hurry, by allowing you to see objects otherwise hidden on shelves by other items. Reflects light into dark areas for better visibility.
    • Ultimate Interior: All the shelves and all the gun racks necessary for an all shelf or all long gun or combination interior. You not only decide what setup you want, you can change it as your needs change.
    • S&G E-Lock: More Security and more convenience than a mechanical lock. Up to 7 user changeable combinations, a 5 minute lock-out feature for tampering, a non-volatile memory (your combo stays even if the battery goes dead), a 9V battery runs it all and is accessible from outside the safe (battery will go stale before you use it up so replacing it once a year is fine), a full million possible combinations, faster and easier than a mechanical dial.
    • Delivery to local area customers is available - ask for an estimate. Pick-up at store by customer is free.
    • NOTE: All of our in-stock Medallions are in gloss paint with scroll. Available colors, subject to stock on hand, Black, Black Cherry (Metallic), Hunter green (Metallic), Sandstone (Metallic), or Burgundy.

    Standard features of interest on all 2008 Medallions include:
    • 1200 Degree/90 Minute fire rating. High temp seal that seals the door perimeter. Fire resistant carpeting.
    • Omni barrier; multiple layers of steel and case hardened steel protect the lock.
    • Uniforce locking system that prevents pressure to locking lugs from being transferred to the lock.
    • Heavy 10 Gauge steel body
    • Locking handle shear pin.
    • Vault type cam system that locks bolts securely behind the door frame making door extremely resistant to prying.
    • UL Tool attack rated.
    • 180 Degree door hinges for excellent access.
    • 1 1/4 inch steel bolts
    • 1 5/16 inch Duo Formed Door
    • Premium DPX storage system with duo door storage for long guns and equipment
    • Deluxe 5-spoke gold plated handle
    • Elevated floor to facilitate removal of guns
    • baked on high gloss or textured finish
    These sale prices apply to our in-stock Medallion safes sold out of our brick and mortar store. Since they were purchased in large quantity we received certain volume and freight discounts which we are passing on to the local customer. Unfortunately we cannot apply these prices directly to single safe purchases or drop shipments. For internet sales please refer to the internet sales table.

    Note: The numbers under gun cap (gun capacity) refer to the number of long guns the interior of the safe can hold depending on the set-up you choose; all long guns or a combination of long guns and shelves. + DPX refers to the number of long guns you can store on the DPX style duo door in addition to the guns that can be stored in the interior of the safe. So for an M19F you can store 7 long guns + 5 long guns on the door and still have shelves for other things or you could store 14 long guns + 5 on the door and still have one top shelf for other items.

    SO YOU HAVE A SAFE
    That's pretty much it for protecting your valuables from fire and theft, right?
    By Ron Godwin
    Actually, there are some additional precautions that may prove worthwhile.



    BURGLARY

    At the El Cajon Gun Exchange we make a point of selling safes as burglar resistant - not burglar proof, plus we've all heard that you can't stop the professional burglar. Maybe not, but we can increase the risk of getting caught to the point where the professional is forced to give up. How you ask? Let's look at the problem from the dark side.



    The Burglar's Problem

    It will help if we can define the problem from the burglar's perspective. Simply put, an intruder's risk of getting caught increases with the amount of time that he spends in your home and the amount of noise that he makes while there. Therefore, the question is what steps can we take to make the bad guy waste time and make noise? You've already taken the first step, purchasing a safe. A safe is one of the most effective time wasting, noisy obstacles you can confront a burglar with. The tougher the safe is, the more time and noise it takes to break it. The weaker the safe, the less time and ... well, you get the idea.

    Buying a safe may not be enough by itself. One of the first thoughts that pops into the bad guys head is that if he can't break into it in your house, take it to where he can. Do consider bolting it down as weight alone is not enough to keep the bad guy from removing the safe and transporting it to a location where he can take his time and make as much noise as he wants. It's not that hard to move a heavy safe. Commercial power dollies, such as the Ultra -Lift that we use for deliveries, can easily walk up and down stairs, in and out of the back of a pick-up truck with as much as 1500lbs. No power dolly? Remember the commercial "Two men will move you"? Well two men can easily tip most safes over into a pick-up bed. Bolt it down!

    Be creative. Stick it in a closet with a solid core door and a deadbolt (more time, more noise). If the closet is in a garage or utility room stick a professional looking sign on the door, "WARNING! HIGH VOLTAGE, ATMOSPHERE CONTROL UNIT, NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE". Put a smoke detector on the ceiling directly above your safe - most of the things a bad guy does to break into a safe, (drilling into a hard plate, grinding, cutting torch), creates smoke. If the smoke detector lights off we have noise and the bad guy doesn't know if someone is responding to it or not. Best guess is he leaves.

    Take advantage of the S&G electronic locks. They dramatically increase security and increase your convenience at the same time! YOU change the combination, not a locksmith, a full million combinations, a tamper lock out (YOU set it for 0 to 9 minutes), 9 possible combinations which you can change, alter, or delete as desired. The 9 volt battery is on the outside and the combo is stored even if it dies. For Champion safes, a glass relocker is an outstanding way to improve your security by booby trapping the internal mechanism against tampering and drilling.

    One last burglary item. Unless the safe is a "show piece" for some reason, treat it as confidential family information. The less others know about your personal security measures the more unlikely they are to be unprepared to deal with a safe. Install it somplace out of sight and out of mind. Warn the kids against showing it to or talking about it with others.



    FIRE

    As with burglary, fire safes are not fire proof, they are fire resistant. If the safe cooks long enough, everything in it is toast. A fireliner buys time. Time for the FD to put the fire out. Simply put, the best fireliner is one that buys more time. Having said that, you don't have to settle for whatever protection the safe company gave you. It is possible to improve your fire protection if you can think inside and outside the box.

    Inside the box thinking includes things like not storing super flammables like perfume, gun powder, and ammunition inside your safe. It is possible that a fire could heat up the inside enough to ignite these items and that valuables that might have survived otherwise won't. we stock a variety of lockers for these low value, flammable, keep away from children items. Another example of inside the box thinking is a fire box. Small enough to fit into most safes, (they come in several sizes), they can double the fire protection of most safes. It's a perfect solution for important papers and small valuables.

    Outside the box thinking might include: double or triple sheet rock inside the closet that your safe is in. Installing a sprinkler. Not storing flammables by your safe. Installing the safe away from likely ignition sources so that it isn't the first thing to go. Not storing ammo or gun powder in your safe; once it cooks off things that otherwise might have survived may not.

    Be creative, do your own thinking, watch our video, buyer's guide to gun safes, for more tips.
