When shopping for a safe, most people spend their time comparing size, fire protection, security features, locking mechanisms, and price. One important question is often overlooked:
Who is actually going to deliver and install your safe?
A quality gun safe, home safe, or commercial safe can weigh hundreds—or even thousands—of pounds. Getting it safely from the showroom into its final location requires the right equipment, experience, and planning.
At Knowell’s Lock & Safe in Jacksonville, Florida, we don't just sell safes. Our own experienced safe technicians handle delivery and installation, and we're here to service your safe long after the sale.
Your Safe Doesn't Get Handed Off to a Third Party
When you purchase a safe from Knowell’s Lock & Safe, you aren't buying from one company and wondering who will show up at your home to deliver it.
Our own team delivers the safes we sell.
We don't subcontract our safe deliveries to another moving company or an unrelated third-party business. The team delivering your safe works for the same local company you purchased it from.
That gives us the opportunity to understand the safe you're purchasing, discuss its intended location ahead of time, identify potential delivery challenges, and arrive with the equipment needed for the job.
Safe Delivery Requires More Than Moving Something Heavy
Safes present challenges that ordinary furniture doesn't.
Before a safe delivery, there are several things that may need to be considered, including:
- Overall safe dimensions and weight
- Exterior and interior doorway clearances
- Hallway width and tight turns
- Steps and staircases
- Thresholds
- Flooring surfaces
- The location where the safe will ultimately be installed
- Whether the safe will be anchored to the floor
A delivery that looks simple based solely on the safe's dimensions can become considerably more complicated once steps, turns, flooring, or limited clearance are involved.
That's why we encourage customers to discuss the delivery location with us before their safe arrives.
We Sell, Deliver, Install and Service Safes
Our involvement doesn't end once your safe is inside your home or business.
Knowell’s Lock & Safe provides safe services throughout the life of your safe, including professional delivery and installation, bolt-down service, combination and lock service, safe opening and repair, and safe relocation.
If your safe needs service years after you purchase it, you have a local company to call that works with safes every day.
We're here before, during and after the sale.
Already Purchased a Safe Somewhere Else? We Can Still Help.
You don't have to purchase your safe from us to use our professional safe delivery services.
Knowell’s Lock & Safe also performs safe deliveries for big-box retailers and other safe sellers. If you've purchased a safe elsewhere and need professional delivery into your home or business, contact us to determine whether we can assist.
We'll need information such as the safe's make, model, dimensions and weight, along with details about the delivery location.
Moving? We Relocate Existing Safes Too.
If you already own a safe and are moving to a new home or business, we also provide safe relocation services.
Safe relocation is different from ordinary household moving. The weight and construction of a safe can require specialized equipment and additional planning, particularly when steps, thresholds, tight turns, or finished flooring are involved.
We can evaluate the safe and both locations to determine what's involved in safely completing the move.
