ABSTRACT:
A security safe includes a housing having an annular portion defining an opening to an interior cavity, a door mounted to the annular portion for movement between opened and closed positions relative to the opening and having an interior side facing the interior cavity, an improved lock and boltworks mechanism mounted on the door, and an improved arrangement for hingedly mounting the door to the annular portion of the housing. The lock and boltworks mechanism includes a coupler member mounted on the interior side of the door and reciprocally and linearly movable between first and second positions so as to concurrently move a plurality of lock members between locked and unlocked positions in response thereto. The lock and boltworks mechanism also includes an arrangement for causing movement of the coupler member from the second to first position to cause movement of the lock members to their locked positions automatically in response to the door moving from the opened to closed position. The door mounting arrangement includes a pair of slidably mounted hinge members pivotally coupling the door to the housing and having elements accessible from the interior side of the door in order to move the hinge members from the door mounting to door releasing positions without the use of tools.
