How to Choose a Vault Door

When you’re shopping for a vault door, the most important thing to consider is the door’s primary purpose. Do you want to protect against fire? Are you creating a strong hold for firearms? Will the room serve as a panic room? Will the room be a sanctuary in the event of an apocalyptic event?

Vault doors come with different fire ratings and security features. Generally speaking, you want a vault door that’s at least ½-inch thick. That being said, the thicker the door, the more fire resistant it tends to be. For those worried about fire resistance, a thicker door with more fireboard offers a higher fire rating.

The door thickness and gauge of steel is also important for burglary protection and personal safety. The locking bolts on vault doors are another key consideration. Locking bolts should extend into both the door and the vault’s walls.
