Brattonsound Sentinel Plus RL7+ Gun Safe Installed in a Fitted Wardrobe – Brookmans Park AL9

Brattonsound Sentinel Plus RL7+ Gun Safe Installed in Brookmans Park

(case study 02481)

Why the Brattonsound Sentinel Plus RL7+ Was Recommended

London & Home Counties Safes recently supplied and professionally installed a Brattonsound Sentinel Plus RL7+ Gun Safe for a certificate holder in Brookmans Park, Hertfordshire AL9. The customer required police-approved storage for up to seven scoped rifles, discreetly positioned inside a white fitted wardrobe.

The Sentinel Plus RL7+ is built and tested to exceed the requirements of BS 7558:1992. It features fully welded steel construction, a reinforced vault-style door, five-point locking and a full-length anti-jemmy bar.

The cabinet measures approximately 1515mm high, 407mm wide and 346mm deep and weighs around 54kg. Its additional depth provides suitable space for scoped rifles, while its tall vertical profile allowed it to fit neatly inside the available wardrobe section.

Concealed Installation Inside a White Fitted Wardrobe

The gun safe was positioned inside the fitted wardrobe so that it remained discreetly hidden from general view while still being accessible to the certificate holder.

Our installation team used all four rear fixing holes. High-strength expanding anchor bolts were installed through the rear of the safe, through the rear panel of the wardrobe and into the structural masonry wall behind.

Two additional strong screws were installed through the safe’s base fixing holes and into the wooden floor of the wardrobe. The four rear masonry anchors provided the principal structural fixings, while the two base screws added further stability within the wardrobe.

This six-point fixing arrangement securely anchored the gun safe and helped resist levering and removal without changing the neat appearance of the fitted furniture.

Rifle Storage, Locking Compartment and Customer Handover

The Sentinel Plus RL7+ includes a high-density foam divider and floor mat to support and protect the stored rifles. It also has a separately lockable internal top compartment suitable for ammunition, rifle bolts and smaller accessories.

The main cabinet is operated by two high-security seven-lever double-bitted key locks. Once the installation was complete, we demonstrated the cabinet doors, both main locks and the internal locking compartment and discussed sensible key security with the customer.

The Brattonsound Sentinel Plus range is widely used for police-approved firearm and shotgun storage. Final storage requirements can depend on the individual property, the firearms held and the relevant police firearms licensing authority, so customers should confirm any specific requirements before purchasing.

About Brookmans Park

Brookmans Park is a village in the AL9 postcode area of North Mymms, Hertfordshire, situated between Potters Bar and Hatfield. The village has its own railway station on the Great Northern route and is within reach of the A1(M), M25 and surrounding Hertfordshire road network.

The modern village developed mainly during the twentieth century following the sale and development of the former Brookmans Park estate. Residential building expanded through the late 1920s and subsequent decades, creating the village layout seen today around Bradmore Green and the railway station.

The Brookmans Park Transmitting Station was completed in 1929 as a purpose-built twin-transmitter station capable of broadcasting two radio programmes simultaneously. It also played a role in the development of early television broadcasting.

Gobions Wood is an important local nature reserve containing ancient woodland, grassland, hedges and ponds, together with remnants of eighteenth-century landscaped pleasure gardens. The surrounding countryside also contains public footpaths connecting Brookmans Park with North Mymms, Welham Green and nearby rural areas.

Local tradition associates nearby Moffats Farm with Dr Thomas Muffet and the nursery rhyme “Little Miss Muffet”, although the precise origin of the rhyme is uncertain.

Brookmans Park is an important Hertfordshire service area for London & Home Counties Safes. We supply and professionally install gun cabinets, home safes and higher-security safes throughout Brookmans Park, Hatfield, Potters Bar, Welham Green and surrounding AL9 areas.
