Hardware Tailored to your Specific Requirements

The terms GSA container and GSA safe can be used interchangably. Whether you represent the military, government or a civilian contractor, we likely have what you need. Many containers are shipped from stock, and are available in all popular configurations including one, two, four and five drawer filing cabinets, map plan containers and general purpose containers. In the case of the latter two categories, we can install custom inserts, as required, such as weapons carts, shelves, drawers and related hardware tailored to your specific requirements.

Class 5 Storage, Types, and Comparison To Class 6

Class 5 containers are typically required for the storage of sensitive items which are subject to outright theft such as weapons, ammunition and explosives, negotiable bills, jewels, precious metals, narcotics and evidence. Class 5 containers may also be used for storage of classified documents, components, materials, and equipment. They provide the same protection as Class 6 plus a minimum of ten minutes against forced entry attack. Class 5 containers are available in several types: file cabinet, map and plan, general purpose, weapon storage and specific purpose build IPS (Information Processing Systems – only used for operating computer equipment).

Class 6 Storage Types and Comparison

Class 6 containers are typically used for storage of classified information through Top Secret including documents, maps, drawings, and plans. They are available in file cabinet as well as map and plan styles.
