The DJS Guide To Selecting The Right Cabinet

DJS sell cabinets and safes for all requirements. The helpful product pages will guide you to select the best cabinet for you. Here are the things that should be considered when selecting a suitable gun cabinet:

1. How is the gun stored?

If you have limited space and intend to break-down your gun for storage. Then the DJS break-down cabinet would be suitable. Choose from the following breakdown cabinets:
Single Lock or Double Lock

2. Number of Guns

The capacity of the gun cabinet will define the size of cabinet required. Our product information will show you what options you may need.

3. Type of gun

• Scoped rifles or shotguns
Most rifles and shotguns will fit into the standard cabinets. However if you have a scoped gun then you may need to order an extra deep cabinet. The extra deep cabinets are clearly identified in the product catalogue.

• Muzzle loaders or other long guns
Some muzzle loaders will need extra height and this can be achieved by ordering a larger cabinet or by ordering a cabinet without a shelf or lockable top compartment.

• Choose from:
Standard security
High security

4. Storage of ammunition

All sizes of cabinet (4 guns and above) can be specified with a shelf for general storage or a lockable inner compartment for legal storage of ammunition.

Lockable compartments are required for storage of ammunition - See firearms act guidelines

5. Security
