Precious Metals Custody Through a Multi-Year Term
Metal keeps its value across a long term better than almost anything else a household owns. It also has to physically survive that term somewhere, and a house that may not be kept is not the place.
Consultations with counsel are complimentary. We can meet at the facility or at your office.

Why this matters
What goes wrong over a long term
Bullion at home is the most attractive and least traceable target in the property. If the residence is given up during the absence, the metal has to go somewhere anyway — usually to a relative, which converts a security problem into a family problem.
How custody handles precious metals
- Signed inventory by weight and form at intake.
- Private viewing room, so a named agent can verify holdings mid-term.
- Vault floor loading is engineered for palletised metal.
- Climate at 50% RH prevents silver from toning over a multi-year hold.
Which box size fits
Under 100 oz of gold fits a 5×10×24 comfortably. Silver and multi-kilo positions need a 10×10×24 or larger.
Common questions
- Is the metal weighed at intake?
- Yes, and recorded on the signed inventory. A scale is available at any later verification.
- Can a named agent verify it mid-term?
- Yes, in a private viewing room, with the visit documented.
- Can it be sold mid-term?
- Only by a party with the authority to do so. We are a custodian, not an agent for sale.
Set custody up before the date, not after.
Tours are private and by appointment. You will see the vault door, the man-trap entry, and the box sizes in person. No account relationship is required to visit.
