Custom Safes...How does one get one?



Custom safes are very cool because not only can you tweak the interior but also the exterior for a super custom fit. What does that mean for you? Well, instead of fitting a closet or build out around your safe, you can fit your safe around the built out furniture it will sit inside.

Custom safes are not that easy to stumble upon, you need to have access to a sub who uses the correct locking mechanisms and knows how to also make them secure, fireproof them etc.


A few custom safe features:
* beautiful custom drawers and trays with
* wood and enamel drawers and trays
* watch winder

Clos-ette can create the custom safe you need and want and so might your high-end residential architect. We suggest you make sure you go with a consultant who has done several custom safes and can references their locking system, do CAD drawings of the safe and mock-ups.
