AMSEC DXE4524

UL-listed TL-15 money chest for high-value cash and valuables

Built for businesses and collectors protecting cash, coins, and jewelry, the AMSEC DXE4524 is a UL-listed TL-15 money chest from American Security's DXE series. Its 3/4-inch solid steel door and 1/2-inch steel-plate body carry a TL-15 burglary classification, qualifying for Mercantile Class ER and BR bank ratings. AMSEC manufactures the DXE line in the USA.

This is a large free-standing chest: external dimensions are 46.5 inches high by 25.5 inches wide by 24.25 inches deep, with an interior of 45.5 by 24.5 by 20 inches yielding 22,295 cubic inches of storage, and it weighs 975 pounds. Add roughly 2 inches to the depth for the handle, dial, and hinge projection when planning placement.

Engineering & Security

• ✓UL-listed TL-15 rating: Independently tested to resist entry for 15 minutes of net working time against common hand and electric tools, picks, and carbide drills.
• ✓3/4-inch solid steel door: A single thick steel plate forms the TL-15 door, the primary barrier against drilling, prying, and cutting attacks.
• ✓1/2-inch steel-plate body: Body walls use 1/2-inch steel rated to 100,000 PSI minimum tensile strength, with all external seams beveled and continuously welded.
• ✓Group II combination lock: Equipped with a UL-listed Group II key-changeable combination lock offering one million possible combinations, protected by a drill-shattering composite hardplate.
• ✓Spring-loaded relocker: A single auxiliary relocking device triggers on a punch attack, while a solid steel dead bar blocks door removal if the hinges are defeated.
• ✓Not fire-rated by design: The DXE series is a burglary chest without a fire rating; choose AMSEC's composite AmVault line if heat protection is required.

Cash Management & Workflow

• ✓22,295 cubic inches of capacity: The 45.5-by-24.5-by-20-inch interior holds cash drawers, coin, jewelry trays, and back-office valuables with room to organize.
• ✓Chrome steel locking bolts: A handle-activated mechanism drives multiple 1-inch chromed steel bolts into protected chambers, securing the door across its width.
• ✓Adjustable shelving: Factory shelf strips allow height-adjustable shelf placement, so layouts can be tuned for cash, ledgers, or valuables; shelves are optional.
• ✓Insurance-grade ratings: TL-15 listing qualifies for Mercantile and Broadform Class ER with a BR bank rating, supporting higher insured-content allowances.
• ✓Optional coin racks: A compact boltwork cover leaves room for optional door-mounted coin racks, useful for retail and cash-handling environments.

Ideal Buyer & Use Cases

The DXE4524 suits retailers, jewelers, and cash-handling businesses that need genuine UL TL-15 burglary protection for high-value contents rather than a residential-grade safe. At 46.5 inches high by 25.5 inches wide by 24.25 inches deep and 975 pounds, it is a substantial floor unit that should be professionally placed and anchored.

If you need less capacity, the AMSEC DXE3024 and DXE4024 offer the same TL-15 construction in smaller footprints; for more interior space, step up to the DXE5224 or DXE6030. Buyers requiring TL-30 protection should consider the matching DXF series.
