Gardall LCF3020-G-C Commercial Light Duty Depository Safe

B-rated front-load drop safe for daily cash deposits

Built for retail and route operators who need secure cash drops, the Gardall LCF3020-G-C is a B-rated commercial light-duty depository safe made in the USA. Staff drop cash through a front-loading hopper without ever opening the vault, while a 1/2-inch plate steel door, 1/8-inch steel body, and independent re-locker protect the contents behind a combination lock.

This is a standing-cabinet drop safe measuring 30 inches high by 20 inches wide by 20 inches deep and weighing 201 pounds, with a 19-inch high, 19.5-inch wide, 17-inch deep interior. An anti-fish sawtooth baffle reduces usable space near the slot; with the shelf removed the main storage area opens to roughly 3.45 cubic feet for bagged deposits and registers.

Engineering & Security

• ✓B-rate burglary construction: Rated B by Gardall, pairing a 1/2-inch plate steel door with a 1/8-inch steel body to resist common pry and punch attacks.
• ✓Half-inch plate steel door: The solid 1/2-inch plate door is laser cut for an exact fit, limiting the gaps a pry bar can exploit at the seam.
• ✓Independent re-locker: A secondary re-locker engages if the lock is attacked, holding the bolt work shut even after a punch attempt.
• ✓Combination lock (G-C): Ships with a Gray finish and a dial combination lock; the series is also offered with key or electronic locks.
• ✓Not fire-rated by design: This light-duty drop safe carries no fire rating; choose it for burglary-resistant cash control rather than document fire protection.

Cash Management & Workflow

• ✓Front-loading hopper: Employees deposit cash through the front hopper without gaining access to the locked compartment, separating drop duty from cash counting.
• ✓Anti-fish sawtooth baffle: An internal sawtooth baffle blocks attempts to fish deposited money back out through the drop slot.
• ✓Pre-drilled mounting holes: Factory anchor holes let you bolt the 201-pound cabinet to a floor, and Gardall notes it suits mounting in delivery vehicles.
• ✓Removable shelf interior: With the interior shelf removed, the main compartment opens to about 3.45 cubic feet for stacking bagged deposits and trays.

Ideal Buyer & Use Cases

The LCF3020-G-C fits convenience stores, restaurants, and route operators that need a standing front-load drop safe for end-of-shift cash control. At 30 inches high by 20 inches wide by 20 inches deep and 201 pounds, it bolts down in a back office or delivery vehicle and keeps deposits beyond employee reach.
