Cool setup, but now Alexa knows where the guns are... and how to get to them....

I can see having a switch, but alexa can be monitored and hacked.

If you can set that up for manual operation along side the motorized then I would make one.
I'd be worried about access during power outage.
It is really cool though.

I'm thinking the guy made it and has provided for manual operation as well as lockable. What kind of motor creates that type of sound when the drawer opens? I'd have it play the national anthem when the top extends to the open position.

Screw Alexa, I think the craftsmanship was terrific. Really cool build!

Maybe one that opens a bit faster too.

I don't trust alexa, nor the firm behind alexa.

That is pretty awesome, in my dream house I have a walk in secure room as would be properly found in The Continental Hotel.
Lighting, bar, plush couches, attached secure 1/2 bath.

Pretty sure the motor sound was a sound effect played by Alexa.

The drawer sounds like normal stepper motors, like you'd see on a CAM router table.
