    2x sheets 6mm steel at @ $250 and 2 x Ross 5-lever locks (mebbe 200 each? can't remember)
    Couple lengths 25x25 around the door interior frame and as anti-pry edges

    Welded farmgate hinges on externally and a full length angle to the inside so that cutting the hinges won't help a thief take the door off if it is closed
    Also means door can be taken off when transporting which helps - whole thing is roughly 200 kilos

    If I did it again I'd get it folded into two L shapes and weld them together but ended up plasma cutting and welding the lot myself

    Only recently ran out of ammo room and can fit about 15 scoped rifles in casually but could do more if I tried getting fancy

    One trick is to glue Fyreline gib to the interior for fire resistance although I haven't bothered, I run a 17watt dehumidifier heat stick thingy on permanently and a lightrope through all 3 compartments which has been really good
