I'd suggest looking at Metal-Tech Partners, we've had pretty good
experiences with their products.  You will probably be interested in
their all metal seismic line of cabinets.  There is a pretty wide
assortment of industrial grade steel doors that surpass the strength of
cabinets like Chatsworth.  They also offer dual locking mechanisms that
can consist of a center combination lock, and top and bottom key-based
locks.  We have had them customized in the past to alternate the top and
bottom key-base locks (by default, one key is necessary to open both
locks).  A side from building a makeshift colo in an abandoned missile
silo, it should provide both a comfortable level of physical security.
I can not for the life of me remember what their URL is.
