When it comes to gun security cabinets, when I hear the word “Cannon”, I think “security”. Cannon is a top-of-the-line manufacturer of gun safes that offer a warranty that includes parts, shipping and labor—for free, in the event of natural disasters such as a flood, or fire, or even attempted burglary. The five main Cannon safes are: Traditional, Cannon, Patriot, American Eagle and Safari.
The Traditional Series, or the Rounded Body as they are otherwise known, is functional and beautiful, made only of the most durable material. The cream of the crop and has set the standard for how they should be. Inside, the classy Traditional safe showcases rounded edges for extra security (it has several re-lockers) and defense against fire, as it is guaranteed to leave your valuables undamaged by fire for an hour and a half, even in 1200°F temperature. It is complete with a luxurious upholstery and shelving with an oak façade. Even though the Cannon Traditional is quite pricey, it is well worth the cost, and costs less than a lot of safes that cannot offer as much security.
Next is the Cannon series, which features locking bolts that are plated, as well as a handle with 3 spokes (a handle that makes you feel as if you are unlocking a bank vault). Its door is made of steel and is almost 2 inches thick. For added protection from burglary, the Cannon series also has several re-lockers and protects against 1200°F heat for half an hour. Most of these features are a lot like those of the Patriot.
If you’re on a low budget, the American Eagle is a good option for you, as it is the most affordable among Cannon’s. It protects against fire, has a 1-inch steel door, and has a key-locking dial, as well as a dehumidifier.
If you are looking for the ultimate security solution—and this is the other name this series is known by, go with the Safari Safe. It features 2 steel doors that are over 2 inches thick. Like Traditional, it is guaranteed to protect your valuables in 1200°F heat for an hour.
