![]() ![]() ![]() You get the dehumidifier rod with the Lincoln 35, better fire protection and locking bolts on all 4 sides. The cost difference is approximately $500. ![]() I like this gun safe, but I think you would be better served by going with the Lincoln 35. Price and Accessories: The current 2010 retail pricing is as low as $2,109.This is not awful, but I like to see a little higher. Steel Thickness: The steel thickness is 11 gauge.Nonetheless, as I will point out below, you may be able to have your cake and eat it too. But let’s remember one thing this safe still received the UL RSC rating, so it is by no means easy to open. Three Sided Locking Bolts: At the end of the day, three sided locking bolts are not as good as four.For an additional fee, you can get a UL rated electronic lock. It also has a UL Group II rated combination lock. UL Rated Burglary Protection: Like all Liberty gun safes, the Franklin is a UL rated Residential Security Container.Locking Bolts: Like the more expensive Lincoln Series, the Franklin Series has longer (2.375″) and larger (1.75″) bolts than most lower priced safes.Why is this important? It makes the door more rigid, thus making it harder to pry the door open. The Franklin Series offers it on the inside as well. Interior Steel Door Plate: Some lower priced gun safes only offer steel on the outside of the door.Besides prying, the mechanism also is part of its re-locking device that keeps the locking bolts in place. The Franklin Series is the lowest priced option that offers this device. DX-90 Monster Mech Cam Device: This is Liberty Safes patented locking mechanism that deflects prying pressure away from the lock, thus making it more difficult to open.The Franklin Series has many of the advanced features of more expensive option and this does make the safe an attractive choice. But first, let’s take a look at the Franklin 35. The Franklin Series is designed for those gun owners who need more space than the Colonial Series offers and want some additional security and safety features.Īs I will discuss more fully in the “Bottom Line” section below, I would pay the slightly higher price for the equivalent Lincoln Series gun safe. The Liberty gun safe Franklin 35 is a solid choice. ![]()
