Just a quick note that if anyone is in the Market for a Safe Check out DRAKE SAFE CO IN NC. Bought 1 in April, First class Safe ALL HAND WELDED WITH 1/4 AND 3/8 PLATE THROUGHOUT BODY AND DOORS HAVE 14 1 INCH CHROME MOLLY BOLTS. I researched them for some time... Built Better then a Liberty Safe and about $2000.00 Less. Shop is here in NC but he ships anyplace. Great Customer Service, Small Local Business. After Nov 3 there may be more B&E's for weapons... buy a safe folks.
OUTSTANDING SAFE CO...

Give me some insight as to why you believe it's built better than a Liberty.
And, what comparative size specifications allow such a difference on pricing that you stated?
$2000.00 difference is not a small chunk of change.
Thanx,

Size of safe and what it weights go a long way in telling me a good story. I have a Fort Knox and its heavy.
How about you finish with your testimonial!
I just pulled them up on Facebook. I haven't researched safe prices but they seem reasonable and possibly better than average.
They're at the big Raleigh show, and others. They make a great quality safe, and will build to suit. Not "fancy" but the safe is well built.
I would have bought one over the same size Liberty except it was too heavy for where it was going to being placed. A good thing for security though.
If I recall, the price was less but I'm not sure by how much.

It will take much more than your opinion to convince me that they are better than Liberty.
And the double door model looks nice. But nowhere near as secure as a single door.

I've seen both a Liberty and a Drake at the same show. Give me the Drake any day.
Save the advertising and marketing $$$'sand put it into steel.

Liberty's drill snapping ball-bearing hard plate, gear drive mechanism with slip clutch and thicker 7 gauge steel body combine to enhance security. 1/16 plate.... Drakes are 2 times thicker standard AND that will Custom make the body to up to 1/2 inch plate with a 1/4 inner between fire liner and body for a little more.

No dog in the fight here, but we had a couple California companies (Vault Pro for one) that was the same way. Liberty (depending on what line of course) makes a really nice RSC, these guys (like Vault Pro) make a serious vault substituting steel for beauty.
I have a really nice Browning, but it doesn't have near the steel as Vault Pro, Sturdy, or probably Drake according to the OP.
I'll look into it OP, I am one state away and I am looking for a new safe as my other one is packed to the hilt.
They don't have a website? I'm not a bookfacer.

Thats what I was asking "what does she have"!My Knox purchased in 2003 has a lot of the extra options weights in at about 1500#+ dry, 72.5 tall,41'' wide and 27''deep. electronic lock.
I will keep this in mind wife is pushing me to move and I might need a different safe in future.
