I'm looking for a vault door, and have been looking at Sturdy Safe and Snapsafe doors. Does anyone have experience with these? I watched a YouTube video on the Snapsafe, that showed the frame of the door flexing enough to prevent it closing correctly. The guy had to tweak the door to get it to close properly. I tried to find other reviews on the Snapsafe door, but couldn't find any other mentions of this problem. I had a Browning safe door previously, but they have gone up quite a bit since i bought it, amd would rather not spend more than about $3,000 or so. Thanks for any help. |

Yes , my door will move slightly while locked. I can push on it and it will move between the locking bolt and frame 3/16”. |

| That’s good to hear. We’ve had a steady increase of burglaries in my community(gated and all)so I figured it was time to dedicate a room to security. And while anyone could get into the room with the proper tools, my main goal is to delay them as long as possible while there’s a police response to the alarm(or my response). I literally just lined the door with weather seal ten mins ago and it’s now what seems to be air tight; no slop and no metal on metal clanging when closed. I’m sure the seal will need to be replaced every year or so after numerous openings and closings of the door, but that’s easy enough. |
