NOTE: The version of this model that comes with an electronic lock is EMP-rated. This means the lock would survive an EMP attack, which would destroy the electronics and digital circuitry in the area of impact, denying electric power to homes and businesses.
Why does Hollon Safe use the more expensive S&G electronic locks over the imports that other brands use?
Sargent and Greenleaf’s high-security electronic locks are proven to withstand military-level EMP attacks giving you full access to your valuables even after an EMP emergency. S&G tested its most popular gun safe locks using the U.S. military’s highest EMP impact standard. An independent lab applied a radiant transient electromagnetic field on a variety of S&G keypads following the Military Standard MIL-STD461F, Method RS105 at 50 kV/m peak exposure. At the end of the testing series the S&G locks were still fully functional.
What is an EMP?
Electromagnetic pulses (EMP) are short bursts of electromagnetic energy that can interfere or damage electrical equipment, thus disabling their functionality. An EMP can occur naturally with solar flares or can be created by technological devices such as nuclear weapons. The high-energy particles from such an explosion would cascade down to Earth interacting with the planet’s magnetic field and destroy the electronic systems below. This would cripple the nation’s power system.
Description:
The Black Hawk Gun Safe delivers superior strength, design, and quality. Constructed with 10-gauge steel and an additional ¼-inch steel plate on the interior of the door, it offers 30% thicker steel than most competing brands. The door is a full 5 inches thick, forming a powerful barrier against crowbar and pry bar attacks.
Each safe is reinforced with up to 16 solid steel bolts, each measuring 1.5 inches thick—thicker and longer than the industry standard for high-security gun safes. These bolts are positioned on all four sides of the door, providing maximum defense against theft.
Equipped with high-security, vault-style hinges, the Black Hawk is built to outlast traditional gun safe hinges by decades. This hinge design also enables complete fire insulation coverage—something many safes with interior hinges lack.
The fire protection rating has been upgraded to 90 minutes at 1400°F. Multiple layers of fireboard are sealed, caulked, and filled with fire-resistant material. An intumescent door seal expands up to eight times its original size when exposed to heat, offering added fire protection.
Security is enhanced with the Sargent and Greenleaf Military Grade EMP-rated Spartan lock. This UL Listed Type 1 electronic lock withstands up to 1,000 newtons of bolt end pressure to resist side punch attacks. A red LED light illuminates the keypad, allowing for easy access in low-light environments.
Each Black Hawk Gun Safe includes a drill- and ballistic-resistant hard plate to guard the lock against drilling attacks—penetration is only possible by melting it. Even in such a scenario, the safe features a dual relocking system that activates even if the lock is destroyed.
Luxury details include a five-spoke black chrome handle and trim, along with a plush, cushioned interior wrapped on all sides and finished with durable “pillow trim” to prevent scratches and protect your firearms.
For added convenience, the Black Hawk includes our motion-activated “Vista Light” LED lighting system, which can be powered by battery or plugged into the UL-listed outlet featuring multiple sockets and two USB ports. Each door also includes a heavy-duty canvas organizer to help maximize storage space.
Our Multi-Flex shelving system allows you to customize the interior for various configurations, including tactical setups. Each Black Hawk Gun Safe comes with four pre-drilled bolt-down holes and the necessary hardware.
