Types of Gun Safes

Rifle Safes

Rifle safes are the most common choice for New Zealand licence holders. They store guns upright in a solid steel cabinet with key-lock security, anti-pry construction, and pre-drilled bolt holes—covering everything the Arms Act calls for.

The Spika range covers 4, 8, and 12-gun capacities, while the Lokaway medium safe handles up to 14 long guns using their Swing’n’Slide locking system, which completely conceals the door edge to eliminate any pry point.

Pistol & Small Gun Safes

If you hold a B-category endorsement, your storage requirements are more stringent than a standard A-category licence—heavier construction and more robust locking are typically required.

For smaller firearms, including air pistols, a compact safe with a solid key-lock mechanism is the practical storage solution. Not sure what’s approved for your endorsement type? We can help you confirm before you buy a gun safe in NZ.

Trigger Locks & Accessories

Trigger locks add a second layer of security when firearms are temporarily out of the safe—during transport, on the range, or in the ute. They don’t replace an approved gun cabinet in NZ as your primary storage, but they’re a smart addition to your overall setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the legal requirements for gun cabinets in NZ?

Under the Arms Act 1983, all firearms licence holders must store their firearms in a steel safe or cabinet of stout construction that’s securely fixed to the building and approved by the Police.

Firearms and ammunition must be stored under separate locks, and firearm bolts should be stored away from the firearm itself. B-category endorsement holders (pistols, MSSAs, restricted weapons) face more stringent construction requirements. For full official guidance, refer to the Firearms Safety Authority NZ secure storage guide.

What size gun safe do I need?

A 4-gun safe is the starting point for most New Zealand hunters and licence holders, but sizing up is almost always the smarter move. Gun cabinets in NZ are easy to fill and bolted to the floor, so swapping them out later is a hassle. If you own three or four rifles now, an 8 or 12-gun model gives you room to grow and is well worth the extra investment upfront.

How do I bolt down a gun safe?

All safes in our range come pre-drilled with bolt-down holes in the base or rear panel. Choose a solid, out-of-sight location—a corner is ideal for limiting access angles. Use concrete anchors for a concrete slab, or coach screws into solid framing for a timber floor.

Once bolted down and the safe is positioned against the wall, it’s not going anywhere. If you’re unsure about fixings for your floor type when you buy a gun safe in NZ, your local hardware store can advise on the right fasteners for your situation.
