Gun Cabinet Door

You can select the options for the hidden gun storage solution that best fits your home or property.

Choose between plywood or medium-density fiberboard (MDF) composite for your cabinet's core construction. Next, select from eight finish options with different woodgrains. You can also choose between five different modern or traditional styles for your cabinet doors and panels.

Your size options come next. The depth of the Murphy Door gun cabinet determines the model and, combined with the width, significantly affects storage capacity. The hidden gun cabinet doors come in two types, one with a depth of 12 inches and one with a depth of eight and ¼ inches.

Widths range from 30 inches to 48 inches, mostly in one-inch intervals. You can also order custom sizes up to 50 inches. The door heights range from 80 inches up to 96 inches. The height can also be customized, but 80 inches is the minimum, and 96 inches is the maximum height.

Select your Murphy Door gun cabinet hardware to give the look its final touch. You have ten options to choose from, including an option with no handles if you’d like to add your own.

Finally, select whether your gun cabinet should swing inward or outward, and choose from a couple of style options for the casing and trim of the door frame.

Each option you select affects the look and functionality of your hidden gun cabinet door. Choose wisely. For ideas, check out the awesome hidden gun room and the custom Murphy Door concealing it in this short video.

As mentioned above, our gun cabinet doors come in an 8-and-¼-inch depth and a 12-inch depth. These two models have slightly different features.

Long Guns

The eight-and-¼-inch deep cabinets can hold three to seven rifles, depending on the width. The 12-inch deep cabinets can hold five to eight rifles.

Hand Guns

The 12-inch Murphy gun cabinet doors include a pistol cubby that can hold up to six pistols.

The 8-and-1/4-inch cabinets come with a fixed lower shelf for additional storage. The 12-inch cabinets come with a lockable ammo drawer.

You can choose between mechanical or electronic radio frequency identification (RFID) locks on your gun cabinet door.

While your Murphy gun cabinet will look great on its own and display your guns proudly, its true benefit is concealing a hidden area behind it. The gun cabinet doesn't have any hidden compartments but is itself a piece of gun concealment furniture.

Creating a secret room in your home that you can access through a Murphy Door disguised as a gun cabinet brings several benefits.

Knowledge is power. The simple fact that you have a room that strangers don't know about is an advantage. It provides a place to store most of your arsenal away from prying eyes. During an emergency, you can even hide in it yourself.

Using a gun cabinet as a secret door can give you the extra advantage of putting intruders' minds at ease with false information. They may see the guns in your cabinet and think the display is all you have. Little will they know, what's in the cabinet may just be the tip of the iceberg.

Imagine a situation like the one in this video where a man perceives a threat and accesses the arsenal in his hidden gun room. Now imagine that threat was real and you’ll quickly see the distinct advantages a hidden gun room offers.

A secret room provides a lot of security. It gives you and your family a place to keep your valuables out of view of would-be thieves. It can provide a safe storage place for the firearms you might need during a home invasion. It also gives your family a place to hole up until the area is secure and all threats have been neutralized.

The security of the room is reinforced by its secrecy. Your secret doorway is hidden in plain sight with a Murphy Door — the last place someone will look. Keeping your secret room concealed behind a Murphy Door, especially one that looks like a gun cabinet, could make all the difference in keeping you and your family safe.

In a more peaceful scenario, your secret room can be a sanctuary where you escape the stress of daily life. Concealing the space behind a Murphy Door will ensure privacy so you can stay focused or refocus on your hobby. (Imagine being able to step away into a private, hidden place of peace when the in-laws are visiting.)
