strong room

Secure storage chamber

A strong room is a fortified room designed for storing valuables, cash, or sensitive documents.

Unlike a safe, which is a container, a strong room is an entire chamber with reinforced walls, floor, and ceiling—typically found in banks, jewelry stores, or government buildings: The bank manager led them into the strong room.

Also spelled strongroom.
