Control Humidity in your Vault with These Lockdown Products

It’s the time of year when the humidity level begins creeping its way up. My first concern is the havoc it wreaks on my hair, since no amount of straightening product tames this wild mane. My second, more important concern, is the costly damage humidity may cause to firearms and other items in my vault. Thankfully, Lockdown offers products to help control and monitor humidity.

Control Humidity in Your Firearms Safe

Here’s a rundown of just some of the products Lockdown offers to help monitor and control the humidity in your vault, cabinet or other storage areas. 

Silica Gel

Prevent condensation, mildew and rust from damaging firearms and other valuables by absorbing moisture from the air inside a vault with Lockdown Silica. When fully saturated, crystals change color. But wait! Don’t throw them out! Simply recharge them in an oven and they’re ready to use again.

An automatic digital control regulates the humidity by turning the unit off and on to set specifications.

Dehumidifier Rod

Lockdown’s Dehumidifier Rod works by slightly increasing and maintaining the air temperature inside the firearm safe, thus eliminating humidity, mildew and condensation.

Hygrometers

Here’s a word you don’t hear every day: hygrometer. This instrument is used to measure the humidity, or amount of water vapor in the air.

With this handy dandy gadget, you can monitor humidity at a glance with three different choices in Lockdown Hygrometers.
