Steelhead Outdoors Improves American-Made Scout High Security Gun and Ammo Cabinet

Shakopee, Minnesota – Steelhead Outdoors, a leader in innovative gun storage solutions, introduces the Gen 2 Scout Gun Cabinet. Engineered with the Made in USA quality you expect from Steelhead Outdoors, the Scout Gen 2 maximizes value, security and mobility.

The Gen 2 Scout comes in Flat Black with Charcoal Grey accents and measures 25" wide x 58" tall x 15" deep. The gun cabinet model features an inline 9-gun rack and a full-width, adjustable steel shelf. It's customizable with additional shelves, door organizer panels and other accessories such as the Steelhead Outdoors 15" Case Keeper or Bow Keeper.

The new Gen 2 Scout gun cabinet is built with welded 14-gauge steel and features Steelhead's patent-pending vertical beam, 7-point locking technology. A high-quality, UL listed Sargent and Greenleaf Spartan lock is protected by a dual layer hardplate. The vertical beam locking technology positions the ΒΌ" carriage on end and is fully supported to prevent bending, offering increased security over traditional bolts or bars floating behind a sheet metal door jamb. The locking carriage has 7 locking points that will lock every few inches along the door and each locking point engages with 7 reinforced slots to thwart pry attacks. For comparison, competitors' products have simple 3-point mechanisms where they lock on the top and bottom with a small rod and lock in the middle with a rotating mechanism. The external hinges allow for 180 degree door opening. The four welded dead bolts work in tandem with the concealed hinge hardware to lock the hinge side in place.

Anchoring to the wall or floor is required and all necessary anchoring hardware is included. The door is removable if needed for moving, the completed cabinet weighs 145 lbs. and 165 lbs. with all of the racks and shelves installed. The Scout retails for $1,400 USD and ships on a pallet curbside, appointment or home delivery.

"Now our best-in-class gun locker is even better. The Scout's assembly has been simplified, and it can still fit through most doorways. And Steelhead Outdoors' Scout high-security gun cabinet's design and materials provide a vastly upgraded gun cabinet features versus the competition," said Steelhead Outdoors Co-Founder Corey Meyer. "We were able to improve the cabinet's performance while maintaining a great price point."

About Steelhead Outdoors: Founded in 2016, Steelhead Outdoors is an innovative safe company offering the only American-made, modular, fire-insulated gun safe available currently on the market. Longtime friends, engineers and avid outdoorsmen, Charlie Pehrson and Corey Meyer, searched for a gun safe that was Made in USA, adaptable and offered a respectable level of fire and theft protection, but they soon realized this product didn't exist. Since they couldn't buy it, they decided to build it. Steelhead Outdoors was created with the goal of building a safe that customers could, and would want to, take with them from one home to the next, or pass down from one generation to the next. Four years of research and development went into the flagship Nomad Series, to create a durable, lasting and innovative modular gun safe. Headquartered in Shakopee, Minnesota, where all products are proudly designed, manufactured and shipped. Learn more at SteelheadOutdoors.com.
