Every container at Fort Knox features heavy-duty steel double doors with a four-point locking system — the same locking mechanism used on international cargo shipments.
Unlike wood-frame storage units with a single padlock hasp, these doors seal at the top, bottom, and both sides. When locked, the entire door is braced against the steel frame — no pry points, no gaps.
Add your own padlock and your contents are protected by the toughest door system in the storage industry.
