Gun safes
Gun safes are suitable for storing weapons and ammunition, in this case handguns.
What are handguns? The definition is as follows: “Long weapons are firearms whose barrel and breech in the closed position are longer than 30 cm in total and whose shortest usable total length exceeds 60 cm. Short weapons are all other weapons”. (Pistols, revolvers, air pistols…) Every gun owner is sure to find the right model for them in Rottner’s extensive range. We offer gun safes in all security levels authorised by the Firearms Control Act (60/2000)
Please observe the Firearms Control Act (60/2000) when purchasing your gun safe.
We will be happy to advise you and answer any questions you may have. You can also obtain information from your local authorities. Of course, we also offer safes for storing long guns and ammunition.

What Are Guns?
According to the Firearms Control Act (60/2000) and SAPS Guidelines, guns are defined as A firearm designed to be held and operated with one hand, including pistols and revolvers.

Choose a gun safe that not only suits your needs but also complies with your country’s regulations.
- Our trained staff is always available to answer your questions and provide expert guidance on choosing the right fireproof security safe.
Which lock offers the best security for storing guns?
The ideal lock depends on your personal needs and usage habits. Below is an overview of the four most common lock types to help you decide. Of course, our sales advisors are also happy to assist you.
Double-Bitted Key Lock
- The simplest way to secure a gun safe
- No codes to remember
- Comes with two keys
- Important: Keys must be stored safely to prevent unauthorized access
- Due to the risk of key theft and strict storage regulations, many insurers recommend choosing a combination or electronic lock instead
Electronic Lock
- The most popular option
- Offers easy and secure access
- Operates on batteries, which must be replaced occasionally
- Can be emergency-powered externally if the batteries fail
- Codes can be changed as often as needed
Fingerprint Lock
- Quick and convenient access using your fingerprint
- No need to remember codes or carry keys
- Up to 60 fingerprints can be stored—ideal for controlled multi-user access
- Eliminates the risk of losing or forgetting entry credentials
Tip: Carefully weigh the pros and cons of each of the four lock types to find the one that best matches your security expectations and lifestyle.
The most important factor when choosing a gun safe or pistol case is how many pistols you want to store. Gun safes vary greatly in size and interior layout, so be sure to check the internal dimensions to ensure your firearms fit properly.

Once you’ve chosen a pistol case or gun safe, the next key question is: Where should you place it?
Important Safety Guidelines:
- Never allow family members—especially children—to come into contact with firearms.
Gun safes must always be placed out of sight and reach of children. - The legal owner of the pistol case is responsible for ensuring that only they and other authorized persons have access to the firearms.
- Always store firearms unloaded!
Placement Tips:
- Position the cabinet so that burglars face additional barriers before reaching it—this means integrating it with other security measures where possible.
- The Firearms Control Act (60/2000) generally applies to private residential areas.
- Do not leave firearms in unoccupied buildings, even if locked in a safe, unless SAPS-approved.
- Always store firearms at your licensed address, in a safe bolted to a wall/floor.
Tip: Always store pistol cases and gun safes out of sight and reach of children—this is both a legal requirement and a matter of personal responsibility.
