Description

When America’s founding documents — the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, and the Bill of Rights — were under threat, one company was trusted to protect them: The Mosler Safe Company.

In the shadow of the Cold War and the nuclear age, Mosler built a vault designed to safeguard the Charters of Freedom against bombs, fire, and time itself. This episode of Hardware History Files uncovers the story of how Mosler became the guardian of America’s most important treasures.

🔑 What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • How Mosler engineered a bomb-proof vault for the U.S. Constitution
  • Why the Charters of Freedom required Cold War protection
  • The legacy of Mosler vaults in American history

If you’re fascinated by safes, vaults, Cold War history, or the protection of America’s Constitution, this story shows how hardware and history collide.
