Abstract
Embodiments of a concealed, secure storage compartment include a concealed floorboard storage compartment for a front passenger side floorboard of a vehicle to provide a unitary floorboard containment shield sized to fit under the passenger side floormat and a hinged attachment plate securing the containment shield to the firewall portion of the passenger side floorboard padding. The containment shield provides an open bottom, a substantially planar top side surface upon which the bottom of the passenger side floormat rests, and internally reinforced sides affixed to the planar top side and its underside surface in the interior portion of the containment shield. An embodiment of the concealed, secure storage compartment provides a locking assembly securing the containment shield and floormat from being raised absent an unlocking key.
