WITH SO MANY BUSINESSES CLOSING MAYBE YOU COULD FIND A USED STORE SAFE AND USE THE DOOR OR WHOLE SAFE. A FEW YEARS AGO I FOUND A DOUBLE DOOR SAFE [5'X30"X5'] FOR $600.00. I JUMPED ON IT. GOOD LUCK.
Good Idea I will keep an eye out if something comes my way. I do want the closet door to not look too obvious.shadycon said:WITH SO MANY BUSINESSES CLOSING MAYBE YOU COULD FIND A USED STORE SAFE AND USE THE DOOR OR WHOLE SAFE.

If it were me, and this could done, I would go that route. Your idea of steel or concrete sounds like a decent idea as well. Let us know what you did, I"ve thought of doing something like this for years.Fishpaw said:How about making a hidden door to the closet? There are a bunch of sites online that show how to make a fake/hidden door. That way if someone breaks in, they wont even know its a closet? Maybe something like a bookshelf with a hidden hinge to allow it to swing out like a door and allow you access to the closet?
