As a wannabe gun safe guru, nothing drives me more crazy than when folks, especially ignorant sales clerks, try to pass off gun cabinets for gun safes.  Though they both serve as a place to lock up your guns, the similarities stop there.  The protection from fire and burglary that a premium gun safe offers is miles apart from that of a gun cabinet.

I know, heck of a way to start off an article promoting Homak products, but I just want to make it clear that the only ‘Homak gun safes‘ currently being offered are little quick access, bedside pistol and wall safes, and they’ve gained the monicker out of convenience not accuracy.  Homak gun cabinets are some of the best selling firearms storage solutions on the market.  And rightly so.  They’re no frills, inexpensive steel cabinets that make keeping guns away from your children and casual access organizationally painless.  Concerning the ‘no frills’ part, I didn’t mean that lightly.  Their top competition in the gun cabinet market, Stack On, adds a lot of bells and whistles like lighting and carpet to many of their units.  Homak cuts down on cost by giving you only the basics.

Sure, they provide ample storage, and light steel shelves for easy organizational conversion, but a Homak cabinet probably won’t be pretty enough to compliment your dining room decor.  I mentioned that a gun cabinet of virtually any kind won’t stand a chance against a determined burglar or a house fire, however, the key entry locks included on Homak gun cabinets are a perfect balance of simplicity and effectiveness to keep your firearms out of reach from your kids.

Homak also offers quite a few different designs to fit your desired needs.  They’re offered in multiple capacities, depending on the collection of guns you’re looking to stow away, and they offer a semi-slick corner cabinet for space efficiency.  An added security benefit to a corner cabinet is that, when stored in a basement, surrounded by concrete, the walls of the cabinet will be enclosed, forcing a crook to attack the door (if anchored).  Again, any respectable crook will have no trouble getting into a gun cabinet after a couple minutes, and they offer zero fire protection, but if you’re just looking for an inexpensive way to keep your guns from the ones you love, you might want to consider a Homak.
