As a contractor and carpenter, I’m always looking for practical solutions to real-world residential challenges. When it comes to home security, the biggest challenge is finding the right balance between secure firearm storage and fast, reliable access when it’s needed.

In this video, I take a close look at the Vara Safety RACT B V2—a modular, biometric firearm storage system designed to bridge that gap.

Unlike a traditional gun safe that keeps your firearm completely enclosed, the RACT B V2 is a wall-mounted rack system engineered to securely lock down a rifle or shotgun while allowing quick, biometric access.

This video focuses on the installation and construction aspects of the RACT B V2, including:

• Overall engineering, build quality, and durability
• Biometric lock performance, speed, and reliability
• Proper mounting techniques, including structural blocking, framing, and fastener selection
• Tips for securely anchoring the system to residential wall framing

Whether you’re installing a heavy tool cabinet, wall-mounted safe, or firearm storage system, the same carpentry principles apply: locate solid framing, add blocking when necessary, and use the proper fasteners for a safe, secure installation.

My goal is always to provide honest, field-tested information so you can make informed decisions about the tools, products, and systems you bring into your home or jobsite.
