Locking mechanisms for safes, such as gun safes
A safe (e.g., a gun safe) according to various embodiments comprises: (A) a housing defining an interior portion and an opening; (B) a door disposed adjacent the opening, the door being mounted to move between: (1) a closed position, in which the door prevents access to the interior portion; and (2) an open position, in which the door does not prevent access to the interior portion; and (C) a locking mechanism for maintaining the door in the closed position. In particular embodiments, the locking mechanism comprises a lock bar defining at least one elongated (e.g., substantially planar) tab, the lock bar being mounted to slide between: (1) a locked position, in which at least a particular portion of the elongated tab is disposed in an opening defined by the housing; and (2) an unlocked position, in which the particular portion of the elongated tab is not disposed in the opening.
