Category H Handgun Safes

About

Handgun safes for licensed Category H shooters, in standalone units and models designed to sit inside or alongside a longarm cabinet. Category H carries the strictest storage requirements of any licence category in Australia. Expect heavier steel, a higher-grade lock and secure anchoring to the structure of the building as the baseline, with ammunition stored in a separate locked container. Most states also require handguns to be stored separately from longarms, so a compartment within a longarm safe or a dedicated pistol safe is generally the way it is done. Requirements vary by state and your firearms registry is the authority — confirm the specification for your address before you buy, not after the inspector arrives. A failed storage inspection holds up your Permit to Acquire. If you are new to Category H or moving house, call the Roseville store and we will talk through what you need.
