Designed with cutting‑edge burglary and fire resistance, this vault door delivers exceptional security and customization options for your most important valuables.

New for 2024 – Enhanced Style & Functionality
• New Textured Finishes: Choose between elegant Textured White or Spa Blue to perfectly match your décor.
• Panic Room Lockout: Standard on all VD models, this innovative feature allows you to safely lock yourself in—even if the combination is entered from the outside—for added peace of mind.

Robust Construction & Superior Security
• Extra‑Wide Design:
 – Engineered for larger openings, the VD8042BF fits a minimum opening of 79.50" H x 41.50" W, providing ample space to accommodate large items.

 – Constructed with a 2" thick door that combines a 1/2" steel plate with 1‑3/8" of AMSEC's DryLight insulation, this door forms a formidable defense against both burglary and fire.
• Advanced Boltwork & Locking:
 – Equipped with ten massive 1‑1/2" chrome‑plated bolts that engage securely into a reinforced door jamb.
 – Standard with a U.L. Listed Group II lock featuring a massive hard plate and two relocking devices, with optional digital electronic lock upgrades available for enhanced security.
 – Commercial‑grade vault door hinges ensure long‑term durability and smooth operation.

Enhanced Fire Protection
• Dual Fire Sealing System:
 – Two‑stage dual fire seals include a silicone seal on the door jamb and an expandable Palusol seal on the door, providing a continuous barrier that slows heat transfer and helps maintain safe interior temperatures.

Customizable & Versatile Installation
• Tailored Aesthetics:
 – Personalize your vault door with a choice of three textured finishes—Sandstone, Black‑Textured, or Granite—and select from hardware finishes in brass, chrome, or black nickel.
• Flexible Door Swing Options:
 – Choose the door swing (left or right) that best suits your installation. For bomb shelter applications, an in‑swing option is available to ensure accessibility even when external debris is present.
• Safety Lock Release:
 – Integrated for added security, this feature allows you to safely exit the vault room from the inside, transforming your space into a secure safe room.

• The recipients signature must be present on the drivers copy of the delivery receipt and any notes of damage must also be on the drivers copy of the delivery receipt for claims purposes.  
• A full-sized tractor trailer (semi with up to a 53’ trailer) must be able to navigate the roads to your location, park at the end of your driveway safely, and be able to exit the delivery location. 
• The driver will then lower the item down to the ground and move it as close as possible with a manual pallet jack. 
• From this point, it is the buyer’s responsibility to move the safe from this location.  Garage delivery is not guaranteed and will be performed only “if possible”. 
• Garage delivery will only be attempted if the driveway is paved, relatively short, and fairly level.  The delivery company will not drive up the driveway or onto private property regardless of the size of truck used. 
• If the requested or preferred delivery location is not accessible for the delivery company, the buyer must make accommodations to pick up the safe at a suitable location approved by the delivery company the day of delivery or within 2 business days after contacted by the delivery company. 
• NOTE: If the scheduled delivery appointment is missed, you must be available for redelivery within the following 2 business days.  The item cannot be canceled or refused due to delivery issues.  If the product is canceled or refused due to delivery issues, the product will be returned to our location and the shipping charges plus a 15% restocking fee will be deducted from your refund amount.

Product Inspection Upon Delivery

• DO NOT SIGN THE DELIVERY RECEIPT UNTIL INSPECTING AS FOLLOWS: If there are no visible signs of damage to the box or item, you may sign the delivery receipt and let the delivery company leave.  Make sure to unbox the item and inspect it immediately even as the delivery driver is walking back to the truck.  If you find damage, contact us immediately. (We will put tape over any damage to the box prior to leaving our facility) 
• If the safe is lying down, covered in plastic shrink wrap, and/or you see visible signs of damage to the box or item, the driver is required to wait for you to unpackage the safe and inspect it for further damage. However, this must be done in a timely matter.  If you find some damage but you still want to keep the safe, make sure to notate the damage on the delivery receipt so that we can file a claim and offer compensation.  Take pictures of the damaged areas prior to unpackaging and after unpackaging. Contact us immediately to start the claim process.  If the compensation offered is not acceptable, you will still have the option to return the item for a full refund or replacement. (Compensation amount is usually offered within 24 hours.) If there is too much damage or the delivery driver refuses to let you inspect for further damage, then refuse the safe and we will ship you a replacement safe or refund your money in full upon return.  DO NOT ACCEPT THE ITEM WITH DAMAGE WITHOUT NOTATING THE DAMAGE ON THE DELIVERY RECEIPT PRIOR TO SIGNING.
• Note: Someone must be present at the delivery location at the time of the scheduled delivery. The recipients signature must be present on the drivers copy of the delivery receipt and any notes of damage must also be on the drivers copy of the delivery receipt.
