Showcases with armoured glass, part 2: an elegant safe for hunters
Security at home
19 October 2021

Security glass cases are not only used for storing museum exhibits or jewellery and other valuable items in shop windows. They are also an ideal solution to domestic problems, especially for people who are passionate about firearms.

Armoured glass display case as a gun safe

Every hunter and person collecting firearms is obliged to store weapons in a special way. According to the requirements of the Ordinance of the Minister of the Interior on the storage, carrying and registration of weapons and ammunition of 16. September 2014, it must be a weapon magazine or a cabinet with a security level of at least S1 according to the PN-EN 14450 standard. This level can be achieved (and even exceeded) also by using a specialised display cabinet with armoured glass.

Benefits of using a cabinet with armoured glass instead of a safe for hunters

Why will the use of an armoured glass display cabinet often be a better solution than a typical gun safe for hunters?

1. The gun cabinet with armoured glass is simply elegant. It can be finished in wood (dark walnut, maple, cherry, root, oak) or classically painted (black, white) with large glazing (front and side glazing), lined with cloth inside, the colour of which can be matched to the decor of the hunting lounge. This type of display cabinet looks very elegant and allows the collector and hunter to proudly present his weapon, while meeting the standards imposed by law.

2. For hunters, who are also gun collectors, having to store their guns in a locked safe that has to be opened before they can be presented to someone is simply a nuisance. Thanks to the glazing in the display cabinets, the weapons can be displayed without having to open the cabinet and without having to take them out, which further protects the exhibits.

3. Armoured glass cases can be fitted with additional internal lighting, which makes it possible to display the collected weapons at any time.

4) The security of armoured glass cases is often higher than the requirements imposed by law, and this ensures that even if the law changes you will not have to buy another gun cabinet.

5. armoured glass cabinets can be a classic and stylish element of a hunting lounge.

Wood-lined armoured glass cabinets with wide glazing, a wood-look lock and cloth lining are popular with both gun collectors and hunters who want to use their rifles and shotguns comfortably. Without disfiguring the room where the gun is stored with a large, metal and unattractive looking typical gun cabinet.
