First of all if you are familiar with guns and gun safes, you will already understand that this is not a gun safe. Its a gun locker. If you want an actual gun safe that will keep most people from getting inside, you will spend many, many more times the cost of this locker. This item here is intended to keep dangerous/valuable items away from tiny grabby hands and smash and grab thieves. I believe it will do this job well. Ive looked at a lot of items like this online and this one was configured perfectly for my needs. Its surprisingly roomy inside and I can fit all my alleged firearms inside it with no issues. Even my hunting shotgun (allegedly) that has a 26 barrel. I just have to tilt it sightly. Youre not going to be storing a lot of boxed ammo inside but all my magines loaded up and some other valuables fit with room to spare. The hanging accessory holder on the door is really handy too. It was easy to install with deck screws through the carpet and into the wood underneath. Securing the back of it was more of an issue but not because of the item itself. The molding along the floor kept me from putting the locker right up and flush against the wall. Luckily I just so happened to have the worlds longest toggle bolt anchors and was still able to mount it to the drywall behind the locker and secure it well enough. The lock seems decently designed and the silent function is nice. Overall Im quite pleased with it.
Overall a decent gun locker
