Have you ever wanted to kid-proof your car the same way you kid-proofed your home? Console Vault in-vehicle safes make it possible.
Made from heavy-gauge steel, Console Vault’s in-vehicle safes turn the console between your car or truck’s two front seats into secure locking storage. A variety of locking mechanisms are available, and they fit perfectly inside your vehicle’s existing console, so they are discreet and out of sight to prying eyes. Believe it or not, you can even install them yourself.
Having the option to secure items in your car or truck comes in handy for all kinds of situations — something that Console Vault has recently urged the public to take seriously through their Safe Travels Campaign. The campaign is a safe firearm storage and education initiative with the goals of amplifying the voices of safety training and firearm training advocates and spreading public awareness on responsible gun safety and ownership measures pushed through Console Vault’s “Safe Travels” podcast.
Keep kids out of danger
First and foremost, Console Vault in-vehicle safes protect your kids from items that could be dangerous. For instance, one of the main reasons people get them is to secure firearms.
According to the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, “Every day, 13 kids are killed by guns, and 8 children are shot unintentionally because of an improperly stored or misused gun.” Console Vault’s Transporter™ model fits a wide variety of handguns and their ammunition clips, ensuring that children never gain access to them.
But weapons aren’t the only dangerous thing you will sometimes need to take with you on the road; according to a study by researchers at Yale, “A total of 8986 children and adolescents died from prescription and illicit opioid poisonings between 1999 and 2016.” One might expect young children to be particularly at risk, since they can’t be expected to know any better, but teenagers made up 88 percent of the fatalities.
Even alcohol constitutes a dangerous poison for children. The National Poison Control Center states that not only strong spirits, but also beer and wine, can give them seizures, send them into comas, and even kill them.
As these reports show, keeping medications, alcohol, and other substances under lock and key is vital. The in-vehicle safes offered by Console Vault prevent children of any age from ingesting things they shouldn’t.
A secure place for precious items
Console Vault’s in-vehicle safes provide a secure place to store valuable items like smartphones or wallets in your car or truck, meaning kids can’t interfere with your most prized possessions, and you also won’t need to lug your precious things around everywhere. The founders of Console Vault originally launched their in-vehicle safes to thwart thieves, which is another great reason to have one.
If that wasn’t enough, Console Vault in-vehicle safes are a great place to stash any confidential materials you might have. No prying eyes can look through heavy-gauge steel.
Control the contents of your car
Moms can exercise control over anything they can fit in the Console Vault in-vehicle safe. For instance, they’re a good place to store motivating rewards for kids — or even pets — like toys or special treats. While children tend to be crafty and figure out where such things are kept, their wandering hands won’t be able to get into a Console Vault in-vehicle safe, letting moms decide when and where to give kids a prize.
Want to hide a birthday gift or other present? Console Vault in-vehicle safes keep these away from recipients until the right moment. They also ensure the wrapping and bow survive until the gift is given to the right person.
Imagine the possibilities with a Console Vault in-vehicle safe. Your contribution to the bake sale won’t get eaten on the way to school, your snack for the afternoon won’t disappear into someone else’s mouth, and when your phone is locked away, nobody can change the song on Spotify.
Responsible parenting
Moms know how frequently kids need to get into a car over the course of a single afternoon at the beach or park. Maybe their son or daughter needs a snack or feels cold, so they need to grab their sweatshirt from the back seat.
It’s simply not practical to accompany them on every trip to the car, and no kid likes being held under constant surveillance. Console Vault’s in-vehicle safes allow you to give your children access to your vehicle while keeping them away from the things they shouldn’t touch. That’s responsible parenting at its best.
Console Vault’s in-vehicle safes are currently offered for a long list of automakers, including American brands Chevrolet, Chrysler, Dodge, Ford, GMC, Lincoln, and Ram, as well as foreign manufacturers Honda, Lexus, Nissan, Subaru, Toyota, and Volkswagen. There are even Console Vault in-vehicle safes for Jeeps, Kias, Teslas, and Hyundai.
Add in the low price and free shipping, and it’s easy to see why every mom needs a Console Vault in-vehicle safe.
