The handgun you carry daily has a secure backup — one you’ve stored off-site at Knox. Or maybe it’s your seasonal hunting rifle, stored safely until next season. Or your shotgun, kept out of reach of curious hands, but always accessible — all managed with the same discretion and care you’ve come to expect from Knox.
Firearm ownership looks different for everyone. That’s why Knox offers firearm storage that’s flexible, compliant, and completely secure — so you can choose what stays with you and what stays with us.
Firearm Storage — Designed Around You
Whether you’re a collector, hunter, sports shooter, or someone who carries daily, your reasons are valid — and your storage options should reflect that.
Knox supports firearm owners at every level — from seasoned collectors to everyday carriers. We don’t replace your existing safe; we offer options. Whether you store one firearm or several, short term or long term, we’re here to protect what matters to you, with the same discretion, security, and professionalism you already know from Knox.
We simply offer a new level of secure custody that gives you options. No pressure. No politics. Just professional, discreet service backed by the trust you already have in Knox.

The Same Secure Foundation — Now Built for Firearms
We’ve built our reputation on storing what matters most: bullion, heirlooms, legal documents, art, and jewellery. Now we bring that same precision and protection to firearm custody.
At Knox, you can expect:
- Private, humidity- & temperature-controlled gun safes
- Discreet, professional access 6 days a week — with full security
- A SAPS-licensed entity and designated firearm specialist on-site
- Automatic license renewal reminders to keep you compliant
And while you’re accessing your firearm, you can access everything else you store at Knox, too — all in one secure, elegant space.
Where else can you do that?
For Gun Owners Who Know What They Want
This isn’t storage for the sake of it. It’s storage that works for people who carry — and care. That includes:
- Handgun carriers with backups or safeties they want off-site
- Rifle owners needing seasonal or alternate storage
- Shotgun owners who want secure custody while still maintaining access
- Collectors who expect proper preservation and insurance
- Travellers needing safe, short-term storage while they’re away
- Families looking to limit access at home without giving up control
You choose what stays with you and what stays with us. We’ll keep your firearm ready, protected, and always under your control.
Coming to Knox Should Feel Worth It — Because It Is
We’ve designed the Knox experience around what clients value most: ease and absolute trust. From private consultation rooms and secured entry, to the personal, never-rushed service — coming to Knox isn’t an errand. It’s a reassuring part of how you manage your world.
You’re not dropping your firearm in a storeroom.
You’re placing it in a purpose-built, SAPS-compliant, custom-designed facility.
Why Off-Site Firearm Storage Is Worth Considering
Still wondering if it’s necessary? Here’s what to consider:
- Your home safe may meet legal standards — but it isn’t humidity-controlled, license-tracked, or under constant surveillance
- Storing extra firearms off-site gives you peace of mind if something happens to your primary carry
- Short-term storage is perfect for travel, moves, renovations, or house guests
- If you already trust Knox for your valuables, why store your firearm anywhere else?
Global best practices are evolving. Even SecureIt Tactical, a leader in firearm storage design, notes that off-site, decentralised storage is becoming the preferred option for responsible owners worldwide — especially those managing multiple assets or travel-heavy lifestyles
This Isn’t a Reinvention. It’s an Evolution
We haven’t changed who we are.
We’ve simply extended what we do best — secure, discreet, world-class custody — to include your firearms.
Whether you need short-term storage for a trip, a long-term solution for your collection, or just a smarter backup for your secondary firearm, Knox gives you the freedom to choose. And the confidence to trust.
Whether you store one handgun, multiple rifles, family heirlooms, or all of the above — we’re ready. Discreetly. Reliably. On your terms.
