120-Minute Fire-Rated Gun Safe — RSC I Burglary, 38-Gun Capacity
For gun owners and multi-firearm households who want serious fire protection and residential-grade burglary security in a freestanding gun safe — without paying for a TL-rated commercial vault — the AMSEC BFX7240 pairs ETL-certified 120-minute fire protection at 1,200°F with a UL RSC Level 1 burglary classification. Built in the USA with a 1/2" solid steel plate door — the thickest in its class — and backed by AMSEC's lifetime warranty against burglary and fire.
At 71.25"H × 40"W × 26"D and 1,647 lbs, the BFX7240 holds 38 long guns (36 inside + 2 on the door) inside a 2"-thick composite body — 11-gauge outer steel barrier, 12-gauge inner liner, and seamless DryLight fill. It ships with a choice of UL-listed ESL10 electronic lock or spy-proof mechanical key-locking dial.
Engineering & Security
- UL RSC Level 1 burglary classification: Independently tested at UL's Residential Security Container Level 1 — pry-tested with mechanical and electrical hand tools, the standard residential gun-safe burglary tier.
- 1/2" solid steel plate door — the thickest in its class: A continuous solid plate (not laminated) backed by the BFX boltwork and Active 4x Locking System.
- Active 4x Locking System with 14 chrome-plated 1.5" bolts: Four-way bolt work — bolts engage on all four sides of the door — driven by a smooth, gear-driven mechanism for maximum pry resistance.
- Three-stage lock protection: Hardened steel hardplate, glass plate trigger, and a spring-loaded relocker work in concert to deadbolt the mechanism if the lock is attacked.
- Two factory lock options: ESL10 electronic (multiple user codes) or spy-proof mechanical key-locking dial — both UL-listed and covered under AMSEC's 5-year parts-and-labor warranty when factory-installed.
Fire Protection & Interior
- ETL-certified 120-minute fire rating at 1,200°F: Independently lab-tested by ETL/Intertek to keep interior temperatures below the 350°F protection threshold for paper documents and photographs through a sustained fire event.
- DryLight fill with Palusol seal: AMSEC's seamless poured-concrete-based composite paired with a Palusol intumescent door seal that expands in heat, plus a high-temperature silicone seal at the door jamb.
- 38-gun primary capacity (36 in the safe + 2 on the door): AMSEC's published capacity. Real-world fit varies with stock width, scopes, and accessories.
- Standard interior package: Premium door organizer, integrated LED lighting with mirrored back, adjustable shelving, and a 3-outlet/USB power strip for charging electronics.
- 13 paint options + 5-spoke handle: Five textured and eight high-gloss factory colors paired with chrome, brass, or black-nickel 5-spoke hardware.
Ideal Buyer & Use Cases
The BFX7240 is built for gun owners and multi-firearm households who want serious fire protection and residential-grade burglary security in a 38-gun-capacity body — without paying for a TL-rated commercial vault. It shares the same 71.25"H × 40"W × 26"D footprint as AMSEC's BFII7240 (also 38-gun) but at RSC I instead of RSC II burglary — for buyers who don't need the BFII tier. At 1,647 lbs this is a substantial freight-class safe — worth placing and anchoring deliberately. Made in the USA, backed by AMSEC's lifetime warranty against burglary and fire damage plus a 5-year parts-and-labor warranty when shipped with a factory-installed AMSEC lock.
