Fort Knox Protector Vault Series
Engineered for Precision. Built to Protect.
The Fort Knox Protector Series represents a bold step up in strength, security, and fire protection. With a rugged 3/16” steel body, a 1/2” reinforced fire door, and 11–13 locking bolts, the Protector is designed for serious protection against break-in attempts and extended fire exposure. It’s the fourth model in the Fort Knox lineup—and a premium choice for those who want more without entering the full custom vault category.
Whether you're upgrading from a previous model or purchasing your first high-security safe, the Protector offers the peace of mind that comes with Fort Knox’s elite craftsmanship and performance. It's a trusted option for homeowners, collectors, and business owners across Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Montana.
