Storing Valuables Under the Mattress Just Got Safer

New gun safe design brings new meaning to old saying

SPOKANE, Wash., April 7 /PRNewswire/ -- The economic downturn has increased
the number of households looking to store valuables like cash, gold and guns
safely at home. Traditional large safes can occupy a lot of space and
typically need to be placed in an out-of-the-way inconvenient location such as
the basement or garage. The basement and garage also have the highest
humidity in the home, which can damage your belongings. A majority of safes
can be moved out of your house while you're away and compromised at another
location. A new patented (6,082,272) product launched this month is a
disruptive technology. A concealed safe takes longer to find. A criminal's
biggest enemy is time.

The BedBunker safe, www.bedgunsafe.com, replaces the box spring under a bed
and is compatible with most standard twin, queen and king bed frames, and a
lighter version is available for RVs. Two safe sections bolt together from
the inside, which makes it virtually impossible to move once the two safe
sections are bolted together in place. The safe is made in the USA of a 10
gauge steel body and 1/4" 140 lb gas piston assist doors. A bar, which is the
complete length of the door, folds behind the doors when the safe is closed.
This prevents the door from opening if the hinges are compromised. The safe
is two hour fire rated and each section weighs 650 lbs for a total weight of
1300 lbs empty. The locks are UL 437 rated and California Department of
Justice approved. The same locks are used at many government high security
buildings including the Pentagon.

Product inventor/designer John Adrain conceived of the idea while looking for
an improved gun storage solution with limited space available. "Traditional
gun safes are very obvious to an intruder and can take up a big part of a
room. The BedBunker kills two birds with one stone -- it is hidden from view
and it utilizes wasted space." The response from gun owners so far has been
enthusiastic. "I've gotten great feedback from people who are looking for a
better gun or valuables storage solution. I've also gotten requests for
custom sizes, which I can also accommodate," Adrain continued.

The safe can hold 35 rifles and 70 hand guns. You can nearly double the
number of rifles if you put them in socks and double stack them. Each section
is 78"x30"x14" and is completely powder coated with a felt liner. Oak gun
racks lift the rifles above the hand guns.
