Herring-Hall Marvin Antique Vault Door: Keep It Secret, Keep It Safe

vaultLook for a way to lock up your valuables? Well maybe this next auction can help you with that. Currently available for online bid via a popular government surplus website is this antique vault door made by Herring-Hall Marvin. This laminated 4″ step jamb bank vault door is approximately 100 years old and was built sometimes in the late 19th century/early 20th century. It has a painted grille gate and is stated to be in good working condition. It measures 31.5 inches wide and weighs 8,000 to 9,000 pounds, so moving it might be costly if you win the auction (so keep that in mind!). Unfortunately this vault door is not ADA compliant, but that doesn’t mean you can’t use it for your own personal use. The current asking price for it is $1,500 with no bids as of yet. This auction will be ending in exactly 11 days, 1 hour, and 30 minutes, so if you’d like to learn more about it, then all you have to do is activate your free GovernmentAuctions.org trial account!
