Abstract: Storage panels for safes, such as gun safes. Some embodiments may comprise an interior storage panel configured so as to be positioned at least partially outside of a safe in an open position, and may be configured so as to extend along and be positioned at least substantially parallel to the safe door in a closed position with the safe door closed. In some embodiments, the interior storage panel may be configured to be repositioned between the open position and the closed position by rotating the interior storage panel about a pivot axis opposite from a pivot axis of the safe door. In some embodiments, the interior storage panel may be configured to extend away from a side of the safe when opened opposite from a side of the safe from which the safe door extends.

Abstract: Safes and related locking enclosures. In some embodiments, the locking enclosures may comprise a crank shaft that may be coupled with a handle. A crank plate may also be coupled with the crank shaft. A clutch mechanism may be coupled with the crank plate and configured to have an engaged configuration and a disengaged configuration. In the engaged configuration, the clutch mechanism may be configured to transfer torque from the crank shaft to the crank plate. In the disengaged configuration, the clutch mechanism may be configured to allow the crank shaft to rotate with respect to the crank plate such that no (or at least reduced) torque from the crank shaft is not transferred to the crank plate.

Abstract: Safes and related storage panels for safes, such as gun safes. Some embodiments may comprise a safe door and an interior storage panel configured to be positioned between a closed position and an open position by rotating the interior storage panel. The interior storage panel may be configured so as to be positioned within the safe in the closed position such that the safe door can be closed in the closed position, and so as to be positioned at least partially outside of the safe in the open position when the safe door is open. In some embodiments, the interior storage panel may be configured so as to extend along and be positioned at least substantially parallel to the safe door in the closed position with the safe door closed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a safe mechanism for resistance to drilling, by use of a door mounted crankshaft mechanism. The crankshaft includes a shoulder which transfers force to the safe door rather than transmitting it to other lock mechanism components. A crank plate attached to the crankshaft rotates from an open position to a locking position, and by rotation moves a link arm with attached locking pins laterally into engagement with the doorframe. A re-locker device locks both the crank plate and the link arm in place to make entry more difficult.

Abstract: A drill resistant plate, which presents a rough surface of hardened particles to drilling attack, and which tends to snap or destroy drill bits before they can began drilling. The plate is made by brazing hard particles into a matrix of brazing material attached to a steel plate. Nickel-Silver brazing material is used to form the matrix on the steel plate, and tungsten carbide particles of 8-10 mesh are secured within the matrix, with the hard particles of tungsten carbide partially exposed, presenting a roughened surface with angular pieces of tungsten carbide to the drilling attack.
