Description
Fort Knox Protector Series Safes
The Fort Knox Protector Series is engineered for families and businesses that demand serious protection without sacrificing usability. Positioned above entry models, the Protector delivers a 3/16” steel body, a reinforced 1/2” fire door, and up to 13 active locking bolts. Every model is fire-rated for 90 minutes at 1680°F, giving Bozeman homeowners confidence when it matters most.
What sets the Protector apart is its balance of toughness and practicality. You get steel thickness and bolt coverage typically reserved for higher tiers, combined with a wide selection of sizes and interior configurations. For Gallatin Valley buyers facing wildfire risks, rural security concerns, and growing collections, the Protector provides the “just right” blend of strength, space, and value.
