    Gun safe is the standard as laid down in the Commissioners Guidelines (Garda.ie)
    But you know they could insist on anything if it took thier fancy.......

    As per the commissioner's guidelines & SI 307/2009
    3) Two restricted firearms, or more than three non-restricted firearms.Each firearm shall be stored in a gun safe which complies with BS 7558 and which shall be securely fixed to a solid structure. The place in which the firearms are stored shall have an alarm fitted and the external doors to the place shall be fitted with locks which comply with BS 3621

    The alarm can be just on the room with your gun safe in. But for a little more cash do the whole house. It will give you and your partner piece of mind.
    This is subject to the Super's approval they may require a little more security.

    Before I had to upgrade my system I had a Yale wireless system on the whole house that was bought from the local hardware store for about €250. Very easy to install and get working.
    It covered all the doors, PIR sensor for the hall, and a keypad control unit. Extra door/window and PIR units could be added if and when needed.
