- Old-BiscuitExplorer IIIShhhhhhh....it's a secret.
Telling folks that you have one bolted to the floor under bed, in a cabinet and that it's big enough to hold that which you feel necessary to be in a safe will just let them in on your secret.
And don't tell them about the one in the truck built into the bottom console.
Shhhhhhh - the_bear_IIExplorerWe have several hiding spots that are difficult to get to so they are secure. One is fairly large and was unexpected when I found it. I'm able to keep tool boxes and weapons in the space.
I just discovered another space the other day. You'd think after 20 years with the same trailer I would have found all of the cubby holes. - BumpyroadExplorerI posted a picture a while back of my small pistol safe bolted under my dinette seat. as somebody pointed out, anybody with a chain saw and plasma cutter could easily steal it.
bumpy - RoyBExplorer III have plans for a couple of lock boxes for use in my OFF-ROAD POPUP. With my front 5x7 deck I can mount a metal lock box up next to the trailer front wall and have a lockable access door from the inside hallway to it.
I also have plans for another access door in the bottom of a cabinet that opens up into a larger metal box mounted under my floor area. My OFF-ROAD POPUP has very tall trailer frame beams and this would be a perfect place to mount a good secure metal lock-box. These secure places are just to keep things from walking off when you are away.
Using such a secure box for firearms would be self defeating for me. My firearms and other defense spray items hang ready to go on a coat rack next to the outside door in plain view when I am inside my trailer..
Roy Ken - TerryallanExplorer IISeveral years ago. May TT came with a safe. Most of them were located under the main bed. It's a great idea.
When we go to the beach, and leave the TT. It is always left open, as there is not enough keys for every one to have one. So we just leave it open. A safe to store bill folds, guns, and other vaulables. Is a great thing. - LynnandCarolExplorerYes we have one for valuables, etc. It is bolted down. However, it could be removed after spending allot of time doing it.
- tvman44ExplorerBeen thinking of putting one for a little cash and a gun. :)
- B_O__PlentyExplorer IIRV? Heck I used to keep a couple in me wallet.
B.O. - Mr_ĂorfmeisterExplorerI got one in our trailer, it's bolted through the floor to the chassi. Just a small one for wallets, passports etc.
Sure it's no big deal of stealing if you just cut the bolts from the under side of the floor. - CavemanCharlieExplorer IIISeems to me that since the whole thing is on wheels anyway what good is a safe going to be? A good hiding spot would be just as well.
