Having your guns secured in a gun safe is great, but does it give you the quick access you need in an emergency?
We have a unique product line in our showroom and on our website called the Minuteman Gun Safes by Hayman Safe. It not only gives you quick access to your firearms when you need them most, but it's also designed for covert installation. Because you want quick access to your guns, but you don't want an unwanted visitor to have quick access.
What Makes It a Great Storage Solution for Your Firearms?
Here are four reasons the Minuteman stands apart:
- 1The Minuteman can be mounted between the studs into a wall for a covert installation.
- 2Easy access to a long gun, handgun, and flashlight.
- 3As the door opens, the guns are presented in a muzzle-down, ready-to-deploy attitude.
- 4Adjustable muzzle support allows long guns up to 39" long to be ready at a moment's notice.

Dominic Schwebs: Minuteman Gun Safes by Hayman Safe
Dominic with Safe & Vault Store.com breaks down the features and benefits of the Minuteman and Minuteman Magnum Gun Safes.
Traditional Gun Safe vs. Minuteman Gun Safe

Do you already own a large gun safe somewhere in your home — in a closet, garage, or basement? Think about an emergency situation where you have to run to your gun safe to get your gun out to protect yourself or your family. What if your path is blocked by the person breaking in?
With the Minuteman Gun Safe, it can be installed in the wall behind a bedroom door. You can keep the weapons you would use in an emergency inside this safe for quick access right when you need them. Your gun safe can still be used for your main gun collection.
Or maybe you just have a small number of rifles and handguns, and a large gun safe is overkill for you. The Minuteman saves you space, gives you quick access, and keeps everything secure.

2. How Secure Are the Minuteman Gun Safes?
Each unit is designed with 11-gauge solid steel construction, which is thicker than many gun safes on the market. It comes standard with a UL Listed Top-Lit electronic lock. A biometric lock with even quicker access is available as an upgrade. These locks are secure from Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and RFID hacking. And you don't need to worry about losing a key.
