Yes, I totally agree as well with the handgun theme on the back wall. Im glad you are doing some videos on the room set up, very interesting and informative
My entire basement is my vault. I bought a $2000 vault door and built it into the frame and added a new ceiling in the basement that's reinforced concrete.
I agree that those walls are too busy with the rifles and handguns. I'd put all the handguns on both sides of the safe. That'll look much better! Amazing collection!! Thanks for the cool videos!!
Awesome video! I built a vault room last year, but not to the scale that you have there. I modeled it after the vault room in John Wick 3 - Parabellum (Winston’s vault room). I wanted it to be a vault room/lounge/man cave. For lighting, I would encourage you to look at Phillips Hue lighting. I have their rope lighting hidden behind faux wood beams shining down on the walls. You can’t see the rope lighting, but you can easily change the intensity and color of the entire room, and change the appearance/mood of the whole room in seconds
Thanks for the video. I’m also about to design/build my third gun room (just starting design of home) I’ve also used the gallow tech and have found that to be the best product for me. I struggled what to do with the ammo, as I don’t really need/want a bunch of safes in a vault room. It makes sense for safety/insurace but it’s too much clutter aesthetically. I had forgotten about the echo, so thanks for reminding me about this! I’ll make sure to add that to my list. Thanks for sharing!
You can add fabric covered acoustical panels which can be custom sized for the space. They work great to knock down sound and stop reverberation. I have installed them on many commercial buildings and churches and they work.
Just one of your gun rooms is my wet dream and you have multiple rooms!!! My "collection" looks like a newb starter kit compared to this. I have to work my ass off and save just to get a new one once in a blue moon and that's as long as the wife and kids don't need anything first.
Love the vibe and the esthetics of the vault. As for the treatment, I’d consult with an acoustician that specializes in building recording studios as they’ll be able to map out and give you a plan of how to dampen the reverb and delay to get rid of any standing waves that could be plaguing the room and your future room using various acoustic panels of all shapes, sizes, and thickness. I used to intern at a recording studio in Atlanta, GA many years ago and the owner went to great lengths to isolate passing trains that would be going by his space. His method was to pack dried beach sand in the outter and inner concrete walls of his studio.
Dividers sectioning off different groups to your liking. Also, you could do shallow shelves, and then you could do overhead lighting to focus on each piece. It would take up a bit more room, but if staggered and spaced correctly, it wouldn't take up a ton more room.
For my room I put fireproof/soundproof insulation in between the studs and ceiling, 1/8" thick expanded metal stapled to the wood studs, screwed 3/4" osb on the inside walls that had a fireproof coating on it and caulked all the seems.
I like the idea of pistols on both sides of the safe. Yes, about more lighting in the front of the room. Always great to see what you thought of and great to pick up some new ideas.
I’d put all the pistol’s on the back wall, but I’d do it from floor to ceiling wall to wall around the safe. If possible put some backlighting on the back of the safe.
Have you considered any of the prefabricated concrete panels sold by safe and vault companies? They are mixed with fiberglass for elasticity and have ceramic ball bearings embedded in the concrete. As well as stainless steel shavings. That diebold vault door appears to be of the high end UL listed vault doors. The stainless should greatly resist thermal lances and other cutting methods.
Excellent video! Hardly ever see anything about the construction of gun vaults. Demo Ranch/Abandoned Mansion showed his vault build. That was very educational. Perhaps you could video the building of this next vault.
Dimensions?...I'm putting in an ICF "safe room" 10' x 20' w/ 9' ceilings...didn't want it feeling like a closet and it will double as a tornado shelter for family/guests It will have internet/cable. HVAC will be by a mini-split; it is seperate from the house and will be buried/walkout to a larger shop. Appreciate the input on color/lighting/acoustics...haven't decided on wall mount system but I like the AL slot panels. Def need a work table for basic dissasembly, cleaning, and "gunsmithing". I'm worried about humidity but the mini-split should control that; regardless, I'm having a drain installed for a dehumidifier. Arranging the guns is an interesting topic...I like the idea of handguns on a seperate wall vs filling spaces with the long guns....and by all means the ADHD in me will have everything facing the same direction. Concur with others on how blessed you are to have a like-minded Wife. Bless you both.
You'd think a store selling safes wouldn't be asking 'why' you want to do business with them. One, three, ten, what's the big deal as long as they're being paid for? I'm happy you're partnered with someone who's open minded and supportive to a hobby. There are so many henpecked guys in this country who need to ask their wives permission to do things in their own homes. There's a good balance with you two. Your upstairs (via tour) looked really nice with your stuff here and her stuff there instead of 90% her décor and you having one small room to yourself... or a single shed.
Hi; I enjoyed the video a lot. Nice work this vault. I think you are right to put all the handguns on the backwall. It realy is a little crowded. I am from the Netherlands. We are allowed only five guns here by law. You are so lucky to be abel to buy what ever you like. Please keep up with the nice video's. I like them a lot.
Brother, since it looks so busy... I will happily take some of those guns to free up space lol, sorry had to say it lol. Awesome room, I can't wait to see what you do next.
Handguns on one side, long guns, rifles etc on the other side or make different sections? But im just in love with those rooms!!!!! Lucky!!! 🤔 would handguns stick to a strong magnet?? Hmmm
Anyone notice the one gun that the opposite direction. Haha. Done by caliber and color would be pretty cool. Dark color to lighter color on the pistol wall. Something else that may be fun is a signal that a gun is off the rack. Like a garage where cars can know if there is empty space. I do like how each gun has its own magazine. What if the hooks had a mock magazine that you could hold the gun with. Maybe that’s how you could hide a sensor. For sound…. Behind the panels what about new acoustic panels? 1/2” thick that drummers use in a drum cage? Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Great video. I have to say, The Collector seems to be getting more comfortable talking at length on camera. It's fun to watch someone discuss something they're passionate about.
I think that you should put pistol closer to the door in case of an emergency and set a wall for self-defense easy to handle for your family love the vault
Yes people… You have to have money to do this. Many people don’t even own houses so I mean… Plan accordingly. If you don’t own a house and you don’t have a good paying job you’re not gonna afford a gun room. Is everyone rich enough to have this setup? No. But some people are doing well for themselves, maybe having a house built, and they can include the cost of setting up something like this in the home building cost. In general his tips are applicable to a lot of budgets. Use light colors, think about your lighting/ventilation, he gave a wall mounted option for displaying all the firearms, etc. You can apply these tips on a smaller scale and a smaller budget. You don’t necessarily need a bunker to make a gun room out of. It could just be a spare room of your house and you can slap a safe door on it. Is it gonna be 100% secure? No. But it would take at least a little time to bust through drywall and I would hope if you have a gun room that you have a security system so cops would be contacted the second your door is kicked in or a window is broken or opened or whatever. Point is the tips are scalable.
1:41 oh I’m sure that’s everybody’s problem. When you’re getting a 3000 pound vault door better make sure it’s the right color. I think I’m gonna send mine back to Amazon.
What's the size of the room (LxW)? One suggestion if you do organize by manufacturer in the next room is get a sign company to make you some LED backlit logo signs for each brand. It's not as expensive as you might think. You could put the backlit logo in the middle and have the guns around it.
Your back walls, the ones you’re putting in on either side of the back, big safe, I would do one for semi auto pistols (your H&K’s, FN’s, etc), then the other side I would do revolvers. Assuming you have that many revolvers of course. If not, split it and do revolvers across the top on both sides (since you most likely shoot them less), and your semi auto’s under the wheel guns. Or if you don’t have enough pistols (both kinds) for both sides of the wall, do one with pistols, and one with only H&K rifles or B&T rifles. I’m OCD like that, so keeping the same things together would be important to me.
First time catching this channel and I’m starting to feel like my little 12 gun safe along with its contents and external stickers, are not as cool as I once thought they were.. but that could be a good thing!☝️
Your collection is so large and beautiful that I would suggest working with a professional interior decorator and a museum-type curator to design working layouts and informational exhibit types of organization and descriptions including why the guns were specifically chosen by you.
Also, if you're building a safe room for things and not people, make sure you use fireproof materials to build with. We remodeled and reinforced a huge walk-in closet, turning it into a safe room. We were almost done, and then the owner asked if we had fireproof it? Long story short. I have lots of experience building a safe room. We ended up installing a self-contained fire suppression system to top it off.
Only thing different i would do if i was to make a vault room is add some storage for food and water, a bathroom , and a bunch of monitors for security cameras, cpu, also have a starlink set up for internet. So if anything was to happen its could also serve as a bunker/safe room. This room would be set up on its own stand alone systems. Like ventilation and power, also have its own dedicated generator.
Let’s say someone I know also has several cool items on gallow walls. And when someone looks at these walls, there is 1000 questions. What’s this one, what’s that one… cool to talk about them but have you ever thought about making some sort of tag that can hook into or maybe a magnet tag with some information on it about the item? If you have, I , I mean my friend, would be interested in hearing your ideas.
Yes the hand guns mixed in with long guns is too cluttered. Maybe if there were a matching set put them together in one area. It will look a lot cleaner and have better view's of the long gun's. You nailed it.
What about some high end sound deadening panels like you would see in a concert hall that would be colored to match the walls to address the eco. I would go with pistols on the back wall.
Is your wife ever going to be featured in a future video? Im thinking you two could have a shooting competition, along with your youtube staff...each of you shooting your favorite handgun and rifle, both in your indoor range and an outdoor long range marksmanship competition.🤔 lastly, personally, if i had a gun room, I'd organize everything by their brand/manufacturer(s) largest/longest rifles size up top, pistols in the middle and shotguns & shorter rifles PDWs on the lowest hooks.
Collector: You could easily put sound damping ceiling tiles in the existing room. They have Peel & Stick tiles that will go right on top of your existing ceiling. It's simple to do and doesn't require moving or removing your existing light fixtures.
Ok you have a dream vault room but to me you have a dream wife. The fact that she came up with the idea of a dream vault is priceless!
For reals! I was just threatened with divorce the other day for adding to my meager collection 😂 (not kidding!)
@@blantant Sign them over to your mom or dad, and get a divorce.
One of many reasons I love my wife!
Yes, I totally agree as well with the handgun theme on the back wall. Im glad you are doing some videos on the room set up, very interesting and informative
The wifes idea. She's a keeper 👌
LED light strips built in the floor to help light up the walls with the collection. Good Job with organizing and the layout 👏
I don't know. I like his other rooms better.
As soon as I win the lottery I will be able to build my dream vault room and fill it up. For now I just dream about it.
My entire basement is my vault. I bought a $2000 vault door and built it into the frame and added a new ceiling in the basement that's reinforced concrete.
Lol I don’t think i make enough to watch this 😬 but man he has a Amazing collection.
You know you're doing OK when you have a gift wrapping room! lol
Only then can you think about converting it into a gun vault...
@@DanShortell yea a "gift wrapping room" .... thats like millionaire status $$ there.
I have a gun "closet" in my man cave ....
I agree that those walls are too busy with the rifles and handguns. I'd put all the handguns on both sides of the safe. That'll look much better! Amazing collection!! Thanks for the cool videos!!

That’s a unbelievable collection, thank you for your knowledge. You could easily vinyl wrap that door or even get it powder coated.
Thanks for the video. I’m also about to design/build my third gun room (just starting design of home) I’ve also used the gallow tech and have found that to be the best product for me. I struggled what to do with the ammo, as I don’t really need/want a bunch of safes in a vault room. It makes sense for safety/insurace but it’s too much clutter aesthetically.

I agree that having the handguns all together would create a more organized look. Amazing build!
One of the most impressive and badass houses I’ve ever seen on video or IRL
Agree with the pistols next to the save door. I would also put in some colour maybe green and gold and also think about some glass display IsIands.
amazing collection.....love the new gun room!!
Dividers sectioning off different groups to your liking. Also, you could do shallow shelves, and then you could do overhead lighting to focus on each piece. It would take up a bit more room, but if staggered and spaced correctly, it wouldn't take up a ton more room.
You can buy sound proof panels that you can mount on walls Corsair sells some they look like a stop sign and they fit together like a puzzle.
For my room I put fireproof/soundproof insulation in between the studs and ceiling, 1/8" thick expanded metal stapled to the wood studs, screwed 3/4" osb on the inside walls that had a fireproof coating on it and caulked all the seems.
You could still put acoustical panels on the ceiling - would work very well.
I like the idea of pistols on both sides of the safe. Yes, about more lighting in the front of the room. Always great to see what you thought of and great to pick up some new ideas.
Put a cool vinyl graphic on vault door, probably something matte so no mo prints
there are some really cool sound deadening choices out there in different colors and shapes
Yes I agree with pistols on each side of the safe. I was thinking that before you even said it.
Your wife let you take over her gift wrapping space and turn it into a gun room. My space is my garage, bro. Your wife is awesome!
Thank you for showing the impressive collection, every collector of whatever it is has my admiration,
Envy nope.
This behavior is weird and impulsive.
That's coming from someone who has to many guns.
@@nephilimninjaofnibiru2907 what does "to many guns" mean? 🙂
I’d put all the pistol’s on the back wall, but I’d do it from floor to ceiling wall to wall around the safe. If possible put some backlighting on the back of the safe.

Another great video and loved who you went through all the details. I like the idea of the pistols against the back wall.

My opinion is yes sir i would move the pistols behind the safe. Nice gun rooms, thanks for sharing
Beautiful
Put a personalized placard on it to push on. Will look cool and keep the prints off
Love the Vault room. And I definitely would put the pistols on that wall next to the safe great job bro love the videos keep them coming
Brother, since it looks so busy... I will happily take some of those guns to free up space lol, sorry had to say it lol. Awesome room, I can't wait to see what you do next.
love your rooms..i'm looking to display all my airguns the same way..winning the lottery would make it so much easier. it is costly.
Wow, nice room. Can't wait to see the next one.
Handguns on one side, long guns, rifles etc on the other side or make different sections? But im just in love with those rooms!!!!! Lucky!!!
🤔 would handguns stick to a strong magnet?? Hmmm
I like the idea of the pistols on either side of the safe, too. The pistols up on the wall with the long guns do make it look cluttered.
U can do sound insulation and using like a soft fome / acoustic panels on the wall
Nice, practical video. Thanks for posting.

A GIFT WRAPPING ROOM! EXTRA WOW🤑
Best video I’ve seen of yours. Thanks for sharing.
Cover that vault door with a 3m auto film or something similar. No more finger prints and you can always change it.
1:41 oh I’m sure that’s everybody’s problem. When you’re getting a 3000 pound vault door better make sure it’s the right color. I think I’m gonna send mine back to Amazon.
Throw couple rugs on the floor. Should help with the echo

The pistols need they're own wall 👍🏽
I feel like I need a credit check to just watch this video. Damn son damn. 😂😂
Great Job. I've shared your content with others and your collection is phenomenal.

Good call moving the pistols and minimizing the clutter
I think putting the pistols on the end wall is a great idea it does look a little busy no but either way its a beautiful room!!
Your videos is my dreams - love it. Greetings from South Africa
Agree, separate the pistols! I am sure it will be amazing!
First time catching this channel and I’m starting to feel like my little 12 gun safe along with its contents and external stickers, are not as cool as I once thought they were.. but that could be a good thing!☝️

I would move the handguns to the end walls. They do tend to get lost among the beastly rifles.
Love that room
Separate the pistols
Maybe tarans guns to the back wall.
First time hearing of a gift wrapping room.
Is it next to your watermelon cutting room?
Yes the hand guns mixed in with long guns is too cluttered. Maybe if there were a matching set put them together in one area. It will look a lot cleaner and have better view's of the long gun's. You nailed it.
Awesome room! What do you think of the fierce Mtn Reaper? Would that be a future purchase?
Great room. Ever think about a light color sound absorbing material on the ceiling?
Maybe directional lighting aiming at the walls to highlight the firearms. And yes, your pistols should have their own dedicated wall/walls....
Plasti Dip Luxury Metal Black Sapphire your vault door it’s just a spray on and looks good. It can be sprayed on any surface.
Moving all the handguns would look pretty good I think
great idea on handguns on back wall
Outstanding!😮😮😮😮
I would go all pistols on the wall by the safe. I think that would look great and do all calibers alike
What about some high end sound deadening panels like you would see in a concert hall that would be colored to match the walls to address the eco. I would go with pistols on the back wall.
That’s wild y’all had a room specifically for gift wrapping lol
With your guns on the wall how about a rotating cabinet like a spice cabinet in kitchen but for guns you can get more on the shelf?
There is soundproofing you can purchase and spread around the next gun room.
I'd like to hear about the indoor shooting range. What kind of backstop, how thick are the walls,what do I need to know if I want to build one myself?
Is your wife ever going to be featured in a future video? Im thinking you two could have a shooting competition, along with your youtube staff...each of you shooting your favorite handgun and rifle, both in your indoor range and an outdoor long range marksmanship competition.🤔 lastly, personally, if i had a gun room, I'd organize everything by their brand/manufacturer(s) largest/longest rifles size up top, pistols in the middle and shotguns & shorter rifles PDWs on the lowest hooks.
Collector: You could easily put sound damping ceiling tiles in the existing room. They have Peel & Stick tiles that will go right on top of your existing ceiling. It's simple to do and doesn't require moving or removing your existing light fixtures.
Yes to the pistols on the back wall!
Love to see the garage!!
He showed it off quite a while back when he showed his other collections (besides firearms).
B&t on the top halve of the panels handguns on the lower halves
Can you do a build blog of the new gun room/ installation of the panels please it would be cool and different
I've always wondered... what does the crazy awesome one and only collector do for a living???
I wish I could have a vault like this.
I was thinking handguns next to the safe just before you said it. Looking forward to see your choice.
I bet a handful of acoustic panels on the ceiling would cut down on the echo significantly
