Does the 335 kg weight of the Red Shield RS-P-36B exempt me from statutory bolt-down requirements under Australian state firearm laws?

Yes. Weighing 335 kg empty, this safe significantly exceeds the standard 150 kg statutory threshold set out in Australian state firearms legislation for Category A, B, C, D, and H storage, which often waives mandatory floor-anchoring requirements. However, the unit still includes pre-drilled holes if you choose to bolt it down for extra structural security and peace of mind.

How many scoped rifles or tactical platforms can I realistically fit inside the Red Shield 36 Gun Premium Safe?

While the RS-P-36B is rated for a ceiling of 36 long guns, practical storage capacity is influenced by your firearm configurations. Large target optics, protruding bolt handles, and wide tactical platforms will reduce the maximum capacity to approximately 18 to 24 scoped rifles. If your collection consistently exceeds this limit, you should consider stepping up to the larger Red Shield RS-P-48B model.

What power source does the digital electronic keypad lock on the RS-P-36B require, and is there a manual override?

The locking mechanism operates on a low-voltage battery configuration using standard 9V or AA batteries typical to Red Shield digital modules, meaning 240V SAA or RCM mains electrical compliance is not applicable. In the event of a flat battery, the digital keypad is backed up by physical high-security override keys to ensure you never lose access to your collection.

What protective interior features are included to prevent safe rash and scratches on high-value firearms?

The interior of the RS-P-36B is fully lined with protective carpeting to cushion your firearms against surface abrasions. It also features built-in internal shelving and structured long-gun racking systems designed to keep multiple firearms securely separated and prevent them from banging against one another during storage.

Fireproof Gun Safe - Red Shield RS-P-36B

The Red Shield 36 Gun Premium Safe (model designation RS-P-36 / RS-P-36B) is a high-capacity, heavy-duty firearm vault engineered for secure, static indoor storage. Built with a 3 mm steel body and a reinforced 6 mm steel door edge, this premium fire-resistant safe stores up to 36 long guns, protecting them behind a multi-point locking system. Weighing 335 kg empty, the unit comfortably surpasses the statutory 150 kg storage thresholds established under Australian state firearm legislation for Category A, B, C, D, and H firearms.

Key Features

Heavyweight Steel Construction: Engineered with a 3 mm solid steel body and a 6 mm steel door edge fitted with a multi-point bolt system.
Fire-Resistant Composite Lining: Built with a composite fire-resistant lining layered beneath the steel shell for elevated thermal protection.
High-Capacity Interior: Fully lined in protective interior carpet with adjustable racking and shelving configured to hold up to 36 long guns without causing finish wear.
Dual-Access Electronic Lock: Driven by a battery-powered digital electronic keypad backed by a high-security manual override key mechanism.

Who is the Red Shield 36 Gun Premium Safe for?

Australian collectors with large multi-category holdings — requires high-capacity compliance storage that substantially surpasses the statutory 150 kg anchoring threshold in Australian states with an unladen weight of 335 kg, while securing valuable firearms behind a 6 mm steel door edge and a 3 mm steel body.
Sporting shooters housing collections in static home or club vaults — provides designated internal racking for up to 36 long guns within a fire-resistant gun safe lined with protective internal carpeting to house shotguns and rifles without surface wear.

Less suitable for: Shooters requiring portability or frequent relocation, as the 335 kg empty weight requires static installation and heavy-freight tail-lift transport; users needing mobile gear should choose a lightweight standard safe under 75 kg. It is also less suitable for users with collections exceeding 36 firearms or large inventories of bulky target optics and tactical builds that lower practical capacity, who require a higher-volume 48-gun vault or double-door safe.
