Newark, DE 19702
United States
Our registered business address is not a customer pickup location or product warehouse.
2. Shipping Destinations
Countries We Ship To: We currently ship within the contiguous 48 United States and Washington, D.C.
Shipping is not currently available to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, U.S. territories, or international destinations unless otherwise expressly stated.

3. Shipping Costs
Standard shipping is free on all orders delivered within the contiguous 48 United States and
Washington, D.C. The shipping method and any delivery-related charges are shown at checkout before
you complete your purchase. Optional special services (such as inside delivery, liftgate, white-glove or

4. Order Processing Time
Handling Time: Orders are generally processed within 1–3 business days. Orders are processed Monday through Friday, excluding U.S. federal holidays.
Order Cut-Off Time: Orders placed before 2:00 PM EST may begin processing the same business day. Orders placed after this time will generally begin processing on the next business day.
Weekend and Holiday Orders: Orders placed on weekends or public holidays will be processed beginning on the next business day.
Backorders: If an item is backordered, we will aim to notify you within 48 hours of order placement and provide an estimated availability date when available.
5. Estimated Delivery Time
Domestic Shipping:
Because our products include large and heavy safes and vault doors, delivery times vary depending on the product, manufacturer, destination, and freight carrier.
Typical Transit Time: Approximately 3–10 business days after shipment for in-stock products.
Total Estimated Delivery Time: Approximately 4–13 business days from the date the order is placed for most in-stock products.
Product-specific delivery estimates may differ and will take precedence when stated on the applicable product page.
Delivery times are estimates and are not guaranteed. Weather conditions, freight carrier delays, manufacturer availability, holidays, remote delivery locations, and other circumstances beyond our reasonable control may affect delivery times.
6. Shipping Methods and Carriers
Reliable Carriers: We and our manufacturing or fulfillment partners use reputable carriers appropriate for the size and weight of each shipment.
Domestic Carriers: Depending on the product and manufacturer, orders may ship through carriers such as UPS, FedEx, or other qualified parcel carriers.
LTL Freight: Large safes, vault doors, and other oversized or heavy products may be shipped using LTL freight carriers selected by the manufacturer or fulfillment partner.
Because carriers may vary by manufacturer and destination, we do not guarantee the use of a specific carrier.
Shipment Tracking: Tracking information will be provided by email once your order has shipped, when available.
Insurance: Where applicable, shipments may be covered against loss or damage during transit according to the applicable carrier's, manufacturer's, or supplier's shipping terms.
