Recent Tactical Wall Installation
« on: April 23, 2014, 03:57:53 PM »
Thought some of you might be interested in seeing a recent Tactical Wall installation that we (Handyman Joes) did.  This installation was part of a larger remodel.  The area where we installed the Tactical Wall was previously a doorway.

Framed and Drywalled the Door Opening


Installed the Wall Inserts after Tape, Mud and Paint (This is a 1450 Bundle - One Small Insert + One Large Insert)


Stained the Frame Dark Walnut

So what does that depth end up being? About the 4"? Hard to tell, but looks like the frame brings it out a bit?

The depth is right at 4".  Yes the frame that's mounted to the wall adds about 1/2" of depth to the cavity.  It will clear an AR-15 with a light mounted on the side of the hand guard.

I'm pretty sure that I saw you the other day in one of your rigs. Question, how much does something like this run? I have a new house with lots of spots that I've thought about having "in-the-wall-storage".

Here's a link to our web page with pricing info: http://handymanjoes.com/tactical-walls/  I have a standing 10% discount for all NFOA members as well as active duty military, law enforcement and fire fighters.  (No 'stacking' of discounts, e.g. 10% for NFOA membership + another 10% for active duty military.)

Feel free to shoot me a PM if you have questions.

Thanks. It is quite a ways down the priority list as we just moved in and of course have yet to personalize the place. I'll definitely keep you in mind, though.

We had about 20 women from The Well Armed Woman group here at Handyman Joes yesterday afternoon.  They LOVED the Tactical Wall.  (Mother's Day gift?)
