Cannon Offers Dependable Security with its New HR Series Safes
Cannon is proud to introduce the HR Series that offers trademark Cannon security, fire protection and elegance for gun owners, sportsmen and collectors. The HR Series, like all Cannon safes, offers the highest quality from top to bottom and the industry’s number one warranty.
The HR Series features a massive one-inch steel composite door, one-inch active-locking bolts, truelock internal hinges and surefire multiple re-lockers. Rugged uni-body construction from heavy 12-gauge steel provides superior protection and each safe is predrilled for bolting to the floor. Safe contents are accessed with the high-security commercial grade Type 1 electronic lock and five-spoke handle. Three layers of extra-hard 60+ RC steel hard-plate guard the lock from drilling and punching.
The HR Series has a verified fire rating of 1200° F for 60 minutes by Intertek ETL, the world’s leading fire testing authority. This second-to-none fire protection is achieved with multiple layers of thick 5/8” fire board construction plus a triple fin intumescent cold smoke expandable seal and heat-activated door seal that expands many times when exposed to heat.
Interior features include plush velour-lined fully adjustable shelves and internal electrical outlets. The HR Series also features the TruRack™ shelving system that offers barrel down or barrel up gun storage to maximize storage capacity. Further customization options include an electric dehumidifier, Group 2 lock with key-locking dial or door-panel pistol kit. Available in textured matte black, onyx, alpine green and burgundy. MSRP $1,668 – $1,998.
Cannon is proud to be the only company in the industry to offer a lifetime, hassle-free, zero cost warranty that includes free parts, labor, and freight for repair after a natural flood, attempted break-in, actual break-in or potential fire disaster.

Cannon was the first to offer the lifetime warranty, but they aren’t the only ones anymore. My Champion safe has a lifetime warranty for flood, fire, theft, or attempted theft as well. I think Browning has a similar offer as well.
All I have to do is get the safe outside where it can be picked up and Champion will send a new one – or have a certified locksmith fix damaged parts if possible. Most safe manufacturers have a similar stipulation now so they don’t have to worry about damaging walls, doors, etc. inside the owner’s house.
Having said that, it is hard to beat a Cannon safe for reliability, value, and features. They are probably the standard in quality gun safes. However, I have really enjoyed my Champion safe which offers similar protections and locking mechanisms, while only costing me about $1100.
