Looks good- a virtual clone to the expandable weapon rack stuff, but they've staggered the holes/slots every other column.  I can't tell from the pics much about the spacing- if they kept simialr spacing but staggered the rows I think you'd lose some "move it a little left or right" flexibility.  If they added offset rows between the existing ones, you gain some flexibility and that is a great improvement.

It appears to my eyes that the columns of holes are closer, but every only every other one is usable for a pure left/right shift.  And the vertical spacing is definitely much wider.

If they're cheaper (the EWS stuff is very costly) and doing the absolute most space-efficient layout is not a critical need, the new stuff looks like a great alternative.



I think this it what Im going to end up with. They are pretty reasonably priced and look clean.


We had purchased a DLS system when I was in charge of my departments armory.  Very nice and easy to assemble and solid as a rock.  I've never seen the Gallow Tech system, but it looks pretty sweet looking on the web.

Took a step in the wrong direction and turned my gun room into a gym, and moved the gun room into a spare bedroom.  Half the size, but I only have to deal with it for a few months until I move.



Too lazy to move the pictures though.  They are staying until the new house.

It is truly a beast, consisting of a 10 gauge (1/8") jacket, fire protection, a full-door 3/8" steel plate in the door, and 7 gauge (3/16") Armaknox AR500 plate liner in the door and frame.



The 8248 doors are imposing and massive.  



Weight is 1579 before adding the AR500, tips the scales at just under a ton now.  I am ALMOST dreading the install.  Almost.



Color is Mercedes Silver with a carbon fiber performance stripe logo for a ghost graphic effect.  (logo was custom since it is bigger than the performance stripe we put on our vaults -but I have done it on other vault doors since then as well)





AR500 liner is an upgrade option on all of our vaults and vault doors.

Stainless Steel liners are also available to inhibit cutting torches, but I skipped it on this door in favor of the AR500 for anti-drilling and ballistic protection.



Call me when you are ready for your door and we will get you taken care of,  Repeat customers and ARFCOMMERS get a solid discount.

How do you guys suggest that people protect their doors when the contractors poor the concrete cap over it? Concrete/water runs seem to be pretty common problem among people I have talked to when installing a door in a room with a concrete roof.

Thats the way to do it. I had a few issues with concrete/water runoff onto my door when they poured the cap. Not to mention the insane amount of humidity and moisture that room had when I was finally able to open the door after the cap was poured. It was like a damn rain room. I spen a lot of time wet sanding and buffing the front of the door to try and get the water/concrete run marks out of it.

Pic thread!!

Electrical is all but done with the exception of hanging the lights(after drywall) and running the cable,phone,HAM antenna and stuff for the houses security system.Room is 80% framed out. Need to throw a couple more furring strips on the ceiling and I'll be ready for drywall. Should have paint and flooring done in the next 5-6 weeks. Now I need to figure out a layout for benches/cabinets and wall color.

Thanks.

Im hoping to have some decent updates over the next few weeks. If anyone has some new photos, post them up! I need some ideas for layout. The wall in the first pic will be home for the presses, but I still need a place for a separate workstation, desk for computer and monitors etc. The short wall nearest the door will have the Gallowtech wall racks on it. So Ive got 2 walls to work with.
