Store your case on top of the refrigerator.LOL
Seriously, for safe home storage you could try a hard case with a lock and use the Instroke for the pool hall or league. Just my 2 cents.
Find a box that you can lock the whole case in. You might also consider, one of those travel cases that your Insroke can fit into.bnall said:I was wondering if anyone out there know where I could get a latch that locks installed on my Instroke case?

If you do get it, make sure its secure via a secure lock such as a Mul-T-Lock or Medaco.
Also double check that other parts can't be shimmed open or the locking mechanism bypassed(and then of course you have to worry about the keys).
I think we've all experianced childhood and something that is locked is just that much more interesting, and who hasn't played around with bypassing locks? Most pin-tumbler locks these days can be picked by inserting a piece of plastic in and using the screwdriver...
Just saying if you are going to lock anything, it will become more interesting and therefore will need higher security since you can be sure if they have a time alone it will be a subject of interest...
Just my two cents...

You could put on a ring latch like I did on this case, and then put a padlock on the ring. Just a thought- http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=39999
Gun Safe
How bout buying a gun safe, then you could store your whole case and many other personal belongings in there! Then if your really picky you could get a gun safe that is fire resistant and water resistant, and all your personal belongings could be safe.
Just a thought. That is what I did, but I did it for my guns originally. Then I thought (MMMMMMMMM, my cue case will fit in there too!.).
