10 gauge so what 15 minutes with a $20 dollar grinder and pack of cut off wheels form harbor freight per thickness. for true protection you will need 1/2 hardened steel followed by 1/2" of stainless steel . In my opinion.

@PilotPatriot

They make this same door as an In-Swing door, not sure what the difference in hinges is. The reason I say an In-swing is ideal for a shelter is because nothing can block the door from opening if it is an in swing....you wont get trapped inside if the house collapses in front of the door

The door is fantastically engineered. And you did a great demonstration of it. However if I see something like this attached to cinder block walls.... I'm breaking through the walls using a simple sledge hammer. The room is only as secure as it weakest point!

@@PilotPatriotI was a Mason for 9 years. Cinderblock walls are not normally filled solid and dont have rebar throughout the entire wall unless special requested. They will have this tiny thin steel every so many block layers. It would take me about 10 minutes with a sledge to get through a normal cinderblock wall, maybe faster. I'm pretty certain a cutting tool can get through the door. You need 1/4 inch steel plate minimum to slow down cutting tools and force them to use a torch. While this door is better made than alot of safes it still gives a false sense of security in my opinion. Theres a company in Florida that makes a safe that hands down has a better door than this in every way for a similar price. If they can make an entire safe with steel plate this company is ripping people off with 10 gauge steel.

Also as I've said many times on this video and in other safe reviews...all doors can be compromised if you have to proper tools to do it. I garantee 99% of your home invaders do not carry along a grinder and cutting torches or a sledge hammer for that matter. They are smash and grab incidents , in and out in 10 minutes or less. As another commenter pointed out you also have to find the door/safe before you can ATTEMPT to break into it! I'd love to see a link to this safe that is so much better for the same price! Id will admit, I won't believe it until I see it! There are of course better safes/doors out there but are usually all thousands and thousands of dollars more expensive.

But I'd think most people considering a door like this would realize they need more than sheetrock.

Do another video if you haven't already but with the safe door "hidden" from view. Just as having a gun safe in a traditional "box" format...it's too obvious. Intruder sees safe? Will try to force it open or force home owners to open it. One oway or another theyll get to the contents. Best to use "hidden doors" so that any intruders will walk right past the "gun vault room"...which could function as a "panic room" for family...as you have no idea how many intruders there are in the house and/or outside.

​@@jaipellegrin3526 LOL They make in-swing doors because in-swing doors are less likely to trap you inside in the case of something blocking the door OR just because in-swing makes more sense for certain specific applications. Homeland makes both options! This one is outswing because the room behind it is small and an inswing would take away the usable space inside. Interior hinges on outswing doors give a cleaner look but don't allow the door to open a full 180 degrees and take up part of the doorway so you don't have a true 36" opening to walk through. There are great reasons for both in-swing or outswing and exposed or interior hinges, each has its own merits for different applications but regardless, your first point is incorrect... none of these options affects the ability of someone to gain entry by tampering with the hinges since on all models the locking bolts are inside behind the frame. Since you design and build things for a living I'm sure you know there are many ways to build something based on the specific application needed, but that doesn't mean one is structurally inferior to another.
