Decentralized Gun Storage: 5 Key Points

Decentralized Gun Storage Plan

Objective: Establish a secure, tactically efficient decentralized gun storage system for rapid self-defense access while minimizing theft risk.

Plan Overview: Disperse firearms across strategic, discreet locations using SecureIt’s compact Fast Box and Agile safes. This approach enhances accessibility, reduces visibility to thieves, and avoids common target areas based on real-world crime data.

Storage Locations and Setup:

1. Master Bedroom

   • Solution: SecureIt Fast Box (Model 47) under the bed.

   • Capacity: 1-2 firearms (e.g., handgun and shotgun).

   • Rationale: Ideal for nighttime access where you spend significant time sleeping. Low-profile design keeps it hidden from thieves targeting bedrooms for valuables.

   • Setup: Mount horizontally under the bed with included kit. Use CradleGrid™ to organize a handgun and ammo.

2. Kitchen Pantry

   • Solution: SecureIt Agile Model 40 or small gun cabinet.

   • Capacity: 2-4 firearms (e.g., rifles and handguns) plus gear.

   • Rationale: Thieves rarely target kitchens, making this a discreet spot. Offers daytime access and proximity to an exit for safe evacuation.

   • Setup: Bolt to pantry wall or floor. Configure CradleGrid for rifles, magazines, and a holstered handgun.

3. Front-Door Closet

   • Solution: SecureIt Fast Box (Vertical) or Agile Model 52.

   • Capacity: 2-3 firearms (e.g., AR-15 and handgun).

   • Rationale: Perfect for immediate response to unauthorized entry attempts. Closets near entryways are typically ignored by thieves.

   • Setup: Secure vertically to closet wall. Use CradleGrid for quick-grab rifle and ammo storage.

4. Guest Bedroom Closet

   • Solution: SecureIt Agile Model 52 Pro.

   • Capacity: 4-6 firearms (rifles, shotguns, handguns) and accessories.

   • Rationale: Guest rooms are low-priority for thieves, offering a secure, out-of-the-way storage spot for additional firearms.

   • Setup: Assemble and mount to closet floor/wall. Customize with CradleGrid for optics-equipped rifles and extra magazines.

Key Considerations:

• Security: Firearms are secured in locations thieves typically ignore yet provide fast, secure access.

• Concealment: Prioritize hidden placements (under beds, in closets) over large, obvious safes that attract thieves.

• Accessibility: Position safes in high-traffic or vulnerable areas, avoiding thief hotspots like basements or living rooms.

• Modularity: Leverage SecureIt’s modular design to add or reconfigure safes as your collection grows.

Implementation Steps:

1. Assess your home’s layout and high-traffic areas.

2. Select SecureIt Fast Box and Agile safes based on location needs.

3. Assemble and mount safes using pre-drilled holes and included kits.

4. Configure CradleGrid for each safe to fit specific firearms and gear.

5. Test access speed and lock functionality regularly.

Outcome: A decentralized storage system that ensures firearms are secure, hidden, and accessible within seconds, enhancing home defense while deterring theft.
