Liberty safe is the #1 seller of gun safes in the USA and there is a huge reason why. They implement the highest quality standards on every single gun safe. I have so much respect for Liberty Safe and the team running it. The Liberty USA Gun Safes are the start to their mid-level gun safes. While this is a secure and reliable product, I find it a bit overpriced for what you get. Read these Liberty USA Gun Safe Reviews to find out which safes I think are better.
Lock – Liberty USA Gun Safe Reviews
First and always most important for any safe is its lock. The Liberty USA Gun Safe comes standard with the SecuRam UL Rated TopLit high security electronic lock. SecuRam is a long standing and very reliable brand and one of the three major lock companies I recommend with the other two being NL and S&G.
This lock features a 6 digit electronic code that is easy to program to your own custom combination. It’s powered by an external 9 volt battery that is easily replaceable from the keypad outside the safe and the lock is designed to open 10,000+ times on just one battery.
You can also swap it out for the S&G UL Rated Mechanical Lock which is also very high quality and reliable utilizing a three number combination with no batteries or electronics.
Security – Liberty USA Gun Safe Reviews
The Liberty USA Gun Safe is built to standard UL RSC gun safe construction with one layer of steel and multiple layers of gypsum fire board. It features both a 12 gauge steel door and body with their patented military style locking bars. This design is far superior the traditional round bolts as it has a larger surface area and is one uniform piece. Liberty also makes these safes on a robotic line that folds the steel in a 2-piece roll form body which eliminates the needs for internal welds like most other safes.
It exceeds the CA DOJ Gun Safe requirements and overall is significantly more secure than most safes. Finally, a drill-bit destorying ball bearing hard plate is placed in-between the steel door and internal lock body. A dual re-locker keeps the bolts in place if the burglar attempts to punch through the lock.
Fire Rating – Liberty USA Gun Safe Reviews
The Liberty USA Gun Safe comes with a 60 minute fire rating at 1200 degrees. They also use genuine Palusol Fire seals which are the highest quality seals. They expand to 7 times their size during a fire to keep smoke and heat out.
Keep in mind, this is a factory test and not certified by an independent testing agency like ETL. Liberty safes have endured tons of real world fires with amazing success stories so the proof is in the pudding.
Style and Function
The Liberty USA Gun Safes are finished in a textured black powder coat paint job with chrome 3-Spoke handle and chrome keypad. This model does come with a door panel organizer but not an electrical outlet.
Finally, the interior includes a split gun rack with adjustable or removable side shelves and a top shelf, all upholstered in a high quality fabric and finished with a leather trim.
Liberty Safe offers a lifetime warranty against break-in, attempted break-in and fire. In addition, they also provide a 5 year parts and labor warranty on all components of the safe.
The Bottom Line
Would I buy the Liberty USA Gun Safe for my firearms and valuables. Yes, I definitely would as it is a good quality safe at a decent price and made in the USA. There are however nearly identical options for $500 less such as the Stealth UL Gun Safes.
The reason I like these safes better is that they have the NL high security electronic lock, a much better paint job, electrical outlet and a Molle Door Panel Organizer included all for significantly less money than the Liberty USA Series.
Most companies in the safe industry don’t keep Liberty gun safes in stock. They end up having to order them from Liberty, have them shipped to their warehouse, then shipped out to you. This adds a significant amount of time from when you order the product to when you actually receive it. That’s why I’ve partnered with Dean Safe company. They have the largest supply of in-stock Liberty Gun Safes in the industry. All of their product pages will tell you which models are available as In-Stock and able to ship same business day.
