AMSEC DXE5224

UL-listed TL-15 money chest: USA-built cash protection

Built for jewelers, coin dealers, and cash-heavy retail, the AMSEC DXE5224 is a U.S.-made TL-15 money chest from American Security's DXE series. Its door is a 3/4-inch solid steel plate and its body uses 1/2-inch steel at 100,000 PSI tensile strength, all secured by a UL-listed Group II combination lock. The UL TL-15 listing reflects resistance to a sustained 15-minute tool attack.

At 53.5 inches high, 25.5 inches wide, and 24.25 inches deep, the DXE5224 weighs roughly 1,091 pounds and offers about 25,725 cubic inches (near 14.9 cubic feet) of interior space. The deep upright body holds shelves, optional coin racks, and managers lockers, giving a working footprint suited to back-office and showroom use.

Engineering & Security

• ✓UL TL-15 listing: Certified to resist a 15-minute attack with common safecracking and power tools, qualifying for Mercantile Class ER and bank rating BR insurance tiers.
• ✓3/4-inch solid steel door: Single thick plate forms the TL-15 door barrier, riding on oil-impregnated bronze bearing hinges for smooth, low-maintenance operation.
• ✓1/2-inch steel body: Body plate is rated to 100,000 PSI minimum tensile strength with beveled, continuously welded external seams for attack resistance.
• ✓Group II combination lock: UL-listed key-changeable lock offers one million combinations and a spring-loaded auxiliary relocker triggered by a punching attack.
• ✓Drill-resistant hardplate: Lock and relocks sit behind a large proprietary drill-shattering composite hardplate that defeats drilling attempts on the locking package.
• ✓Made in the USA: American Security builds the DXE series domestically, a point that matters to buyers verifying TL-15 sourcing and warranty support.

Cash Management & Workflow

• ✓Locking boltwork: Handle-activated mechanism drives two to five 1-inch chromed steel bolts, with size scaled to the unit's door dimensions.
• ✓Dead bar protection: A solid steel dead bar holds the door in place even if the hinges are removed during a forced-entry attempt.
• ✓Configurable interior: Installed shelf strips allow adjustable shelving, and optional coin racks, managers lockers, and deposit slots tailor it to daily cash handling.
• ✓Not fire-rated by design: As a TL-15 plate money chest, this model is built for burglary resistance only; choose AMSEC's fire-rated lines if fire protection is required.

Ideal Buyer & Use Cases

The DXE5224 fits jewelers, coin and precious-metals dealers, dispensaries, and retailers who need UL TL-15 burglary protection for cash, inventory, and high-value stock. Measuring 53.5 inches high by 25.5 inches wide by 24.25 inches deep and weighing about 1,091 pounds, it delivers tall upright capacity with a manageable floor footprint.

If you need a smaller TL-15 chest, the DXE4524 and DXE3030 step down in size; for more capacity, look to the wider DXE6030 or the larger DXE7234 within the same DXE series ladder.
