Gunvault Minivault Series

[Jestertac1]

The tubular lock that comes with the Gunvault safe is not very secure and I have read where some owners changed their locks with Medeco or Abloy tubular locks. Deviant Ollam talks about using an Abloy in his video on "Dfcon 19: Safe to Armed in Seconds" (at the 34:00 mark) and I think its a great setup.

Any idea of which replacement lock to buy? I'd hate to spend the money only to find that the barrel is the wrong diameter or the length is wrong! I could probably pay a locksmith to do this for me, but I would like to do it myself in addition to keeping costs down.

As of right now, the Minivault is torn apart and ready to be swapped out. I can take measurements or compare the numbers stamped on the face or the barrel of the lock. Any one know of a website that has dimensions listed next to the locks?

From the Security Snobs website:



And if you click any of the specific locks on this page:
https://securitysnobs.com/Cam-Locks/

It gives additional information, such as how much length to add when ordering a lock, if you are adding an anti-spin collar.

That looks like just the ticket! Thank you so much for the quick reply.

I will post the finished project when It's done, but it might take me awhile with the holiday season in full swing.

As a fellow responsible gun owner, good on you for making your container harder to get into for bad guys, kids, bored teenagers, etc.
