Steelwater MAX Series 45 Long Gun Safe - 150 Min Fire Rated
Description
The Steelwater MAX794528 is a heavy-duty, full-size gun safe built for serious firearm collectors and security-minded gun owners who refuse to compromise. Engineered with a 3-gauge steel body, a massive 5 1/8" composite door, and 20 solid steel locking bolts, this safe delivers fortress-level protection against forced entry, prying, drilling, and ballistic attacks. With 150 minutes of fire protection at 1875°F and a heat-activated expandable door seal, it's one of the most fire-resistant safes in its class.
Inside, a fully upholstered grey three-section gun rack holds up to 45 long guns, with 8 adjustable shelves, built-in LED lighting, and a UL Listed power outlet with USB ports. The EMP-proof digital keypad with bypass key ensures you'll always have reliable access - even in a power outage or electronic attack. Free accessories including a door organizer, dehumidifier dry pack, and LED lighting are included with every purchase.

FAQ
Does this safe require freight delivery?
Yes. At 1,748 lbs., the MAX794528 must be delivered via freight truck with a liftgate. It is strongly recommended that you call before purchasing to confirm delivery eligibility in your area and to coordinate scheduling. Steelwater and Omaha Sports and Games can help arrange this - reach us at service@omahasportsandgames.com.
What is an EMP-proof keypad and why does it matter?
An EMP (electromagnetic pulse) can disable standard electronic devices, including typical digital safe keypads. Steelwater's EMP-proof keypad is shielded against electromagnetic interference, meaning it will continue to function even during an EMP event. Additionally, the included double-bitted bypass key gives you a mechanical backup for access in any situation.
Can I upgrade the lock to a biometric option?
Yes. The BioMax Biometric EMP-Proof Keypad upgrade is available for purchase alongside the safe. This upgrade replaces the standard digital keypad with a fingerprint-reading biometric lock that is also EMP-proof. Contact us or add it to your order at the time of purchase.
How many long guns will actually fit in the safe?
The safe has a maximum capacity of 45 long guns (15 per section across 3 sections) when stored without scopes or other accessories. The average recommended capacity with typical scoped rifles is 33-39 guns. Using the adjustable shelves for handguns, ammo, and documents will also affect how many long guns fit comfortably.
Does this safe need to be bolted down?
While the safe's 1,748 lb. weight makes it extremely difficult to move, bolting it down is always recommended for maximum security. The safe comes with 4 pre-drilled anchor holes reinforced with 1/4" steel plate. Separate wood and concrete anchor kits are available as optional add-ons.
Is a dehumidifier included with the safe?
Yes - a free 200 gram silica gel dry pack rechargeable dehumidifying box is included with every purchase. For larger or more humid environments, Steelwater also offers upgraded dehumidifier options including a rechargeable 400 gram desiccant pack and an 18" Dri-Rod electric dehumidifier, available as optional upgrades.
