Since Aug 15, 2024, a firearm left unattended in a vehicle in Delaware goes in a locked box or container, a vehicle gun rack or the locked trunk. The Golden Gate Elite is a 12-gauge steel car gun safe that clicks into the child-seat anchors in your back seat, no drilling. Pistol in, unloaded. Cover down, and it looks like a booster seat.
The beach, the outlets, the courthouse. The gun waits in the car.
Every time you walk away from the car, the gun is unattended, and Delaware wants it locked up. A parked car is also where thieves go shopping.
- The glove box.It’s where everyone keeps a gun, so it’s where thieves look.
- Under the seat.The first place anyone looks.
- A gun rack.On Delaware’s list. Also in plain view of everyone walking past.

On California’s certified list. Look it up yourself.
California keeps a public roster of firearm safety devices certified for sale there. The Golden Gate Elite is on it, listed as the Boosted Safe LLC “Golden Gate” lock box.
You’re in Delaware, so why does California’s list matter? Because you can check it in ten seconds, and it shows this is a real gun safe, not a lockbox with a sticker.
This is California’s list. It isn’t a certification in Delaware or any other state. The listing covers the Golden Gate Elite only. The Golden Gate Basic has not been tested yet.
Your car has steel anchors. We lock a safe to them.
You might not know they’re there. Every passenger vehicle sold in the US since the 2003 model year has them, by federal standard FMVSS 225. A child seat clicks into them. So does a Boosted Safe.
- Locked to the car.Two steel latches grab the same bars that hold a child seat in a crash. The release is inside the safe.
- Looks like a booster seat.Nobody breaks a window for a booster seat.
- Opens in a second.Fingerprint first. Keypad and key behind it.
Why it's a Boosted Safe
Steel. Fingerprint. Anchors.

Straight answers.
Does a Boosted Safe make me legal under Delaware’s law?
We can’t promise that, and no box can. HB 155 says a firearm left unattended in a vehicle goes in a locked box or container, a vehicle gun rack or the locked trunk. Read it and decide how you’ll use the safe. This is a plain-English summary, not legal advice. Laws change. Check Delaware’s current law before you rely on it.
A gun rack counts in Delaware. Why not use one?
You can. It’s also a gun on display to anyone walking past the window. The Golden Gate Elite keeps it locked in steel under a booster-seat cover.
Is it a real gun safe?
Yes. The Golden Gate Elite is 12-gauge steel, and the California DOJ lists it as a certified firearm safety device. That’s California’s list, not a Delaware certification, but you can check it yourself in ten seconds.
Is the Golden Gate Basic certified too?
Not yet. It hasn’t been tested. For firearms, get the Golden Gate Elite.
Can I store a loaded firearm in it?
No. Firearms go in unloaded.
What about driving to another state?
Federal law (18 U.S.C. 926A) covers travel between two places where you can lawfully have the gun: unloaded and out of reach, in the trunk, or in a locked container if there’s no trunk. States apply it differently. See the rules state by state.
When does the Golden Gate Elite ship?
It’s a pre-order that ships in November, and the pre-order price is $35 off.
Is there a deal if I buy more than one?
Yes. Buy 2 to 9 safes and every safe in the order is 25% off. Buy 10 or more and every one is 30% off. Mix any models, Golden Gate included. Refurbished safes don’t count, and the deal doesn’t stack with other codes.
Will it fit my car?
Most passenger vehicles from the 2003 model year on have the anchors. Check yours in a minute.
What if I don’t like it?
Put it in your car and live with it. If it isn’t for you, send it back inside 30 days for a refund. Defects are covered for as long as you own it.
Walk away from the car. Leave the gun locked in steel.
