Amazon BasicsSteel Home Security Electronic Safe with Programmable Digital Keypad Lock for Jewelry, Money, Valuables Storage, 43 l, 35 cm W x 33 cm D x 42 cm H, Black

Needed to buy a cabinet safe and looked on Amazon. I found this Amazon Basics steel safe and at £100 thought it looked like a great entry level safe. Took the risk of purchasing and since it arrived I have not had any issues. Everything was in the box, nothing missing, no damage to safe either.The electronic keypanel for setting up a code (3 to 8 digits) was extremely easy to follow. Also the two safe keys supplied worked fine. They are initially a little tight to push in but if you're gentle enough shouldn't have any problems gaining access to the safe if the batteries for the electronic side are exhausted.The only downside I found is that the electronics of the keypanel entry does protrude into the safe space which means you can't place items too far forward towards the safe door as the keypanel housing pushes on to your stored items. However I can live with that.For the price it is value for money and a wonderful entry level safe.Of course burglars could steal it if not secured to wall or floor, they could carry it away, even though it is heavy.For me just nice to have that extra layer of security on items that need protecting.

At this price range you won’t get a drill proof safe but it is clearly well made. It features plenty of space to use the bigger section for most things. I have a lot of files stood length ways up A4 size and the top shelf for smaller items. You have tiny holes on the bottom and back if you are intending on bolting this to the floor or wall. It’s got weight to it so for me, it’s great as a family safe for personal documents and valuables. The lock is quite fascinating if you haven’t had an electronic safe before. It was easy to code, takes 4x AA batteries and you can silence the buttons if you wish. You have 2 spare keys should you forget to change the batteries but it warns you with a red/green light combo when it’s nearing the time. The shelf is removable. You can feel the quality of the build especially when you’re simply opening it. It looks like a 2x 14mm pin locking mechanism that most ordinary people would not know how to bypass and it’s using typical lock keys which are known for being very hard to pick. Similar to the types of locks used for motorcycles and they are generally made for this purpose. The exterior of the safe gives the impression that it’s steel walls are much thicker. If you want security at home in the general sense of other residents or visitors this is exactly what you are looking for. However, if you are wanting a serious cash safe Inside Man job you’re going to be needing a lot more money to throw at a safe.

Very solid and spacious. Good locking system too.

Good quality .Good value for money.

I really like the size of this safe, it came well packaged and was easy to set up with instructions included. Ensure you remove the keys and store them safe before even attempting to set the safe up as if they get locked inside before you set it up, you can’t access them again and will be locked out. Finger print scanner works well and stores up to 50 finger prints!

This was far better quality than I expected and therefore, does more than expected security wiseLots of room for various valuables and overall very pleased
