I was contacted awhile back by someone who may or may not be a member of this forum. He or She was building a new house, and wanted something to secure a few inexpensive guns.
They picked out something used that they thought would do the job, and I drove it out and installed it for them recently.
Because of the weight, we had to have a crane come out and lower it in the basement for us.
The basement has very high ceilings, so it's quite a ways down.
You're looking into the vault here. It will be around 1,000 square feet with the same high ceilings as the rest of the basement. The roof of the vault will also be the floor of a garage.
Somebody has to be inside the vault to secure the door once it's in place. Typically, the roof is on the vault when we put the door on, leaving the possibility of being trapped inside in the dark. Eric drew the short straw this time, so he's shown in this photo.
This is Mike removing some rigging from the door after Eric secured it from inside the vault.
Job complete.
