Equipped with an electronic lock, the AmazonBasics security safe offers quick set-up and easy operation.

To open the safe, enter your passcode using the key pad, then turn the knob clockwise to open the safe door.

The digital display has three different symbols to indicate locked, unlocked, and low battery. *Note: The safe is shipped locked. To open for the first time, use one of the two override keys provided.

2 Live-Door Bolts and Pry-Resistant Concealed Hinges

In addition to the electronic lock, the security safe features two live-door bolts, a pry-resistant steel door, and pry-resistant concealed hinges. These relevant design elements help prevent intruders from accessing the contents of the safe. A black exterior finish gives the safe a handsome look that will coordinate with any home or office setting.

    All fine so far. Only had it for 1 week but seems like it will do exactly what I wanted.

    I needed a sage that is storing and sturdy enough and easy to fit in my apartment. I like the fact that I can fit all my important documents in the bottom shelf as well as place two laptops and my camera, money and gold plated mint coin collection set.

    It is as advertised and easy to install. Worth your money if you are looking to get a sturdy sage that is within your budget.

    I bought two safes one for my parents and one for me.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI bought this Amazon basics safe to replace my previous save to which the keys were missing and the batteries flat. It’s as well made as any I’ve seen in its price range and even has a wee internal removable shelf. I’ve seen no end of YouTube clips showing folks bouncing this type of save on a mattress to unlock the door. Quite frankly if I was a burglar and came across a small safe not fastened down, I wouldn’t be bouncing it up and down trying to open it I’d just take it with me. I’ve also seen folks picking the lock but with a bit of imagination when securing the safe you can stop that from happening to yours. I have mine bolted to a solid wall as was my last one which I needed to open with an angle grinder. A determined professional thief would no doubt open this type of safe without too much trouble, but for what it costs and provided it’s bolted down. this safe will add a degree of security for any valuables in your home.

    Appropriate size for storing laptops. There is also shelf inside for document storage too!!
    This has fairly thin walls, but I think it’s good enough for what I need it to do.
    Super easy to install and to secure to wall/floor. Easy to use electronic lock works great. Instruction manual is easy to understand.
    Overall highly recommended as sn everyday home safe, particularly for laptops.

    Love the safe! Easy to lock and unlock with the code. Have not tried the fingerprint reader. I didn’t know it did that, so I will have to look into it. It’s the perfect small safe.

    Easy to install, simple to use. Have owned for several years and use to store passports and other documents I don’t want to go missing. My batteries fell out one day while the safe was closed, so I put a piece of duct tape over the batteries to hold them in more securely.

    I purchased this safe for my granddaughter who relocated to Chicago for work. She is sharing an apartment with 2 other roommates. She keeps her valuables safe at home and whenever she’s out of the apt. Looks great and compact. Great buy!

    Perfetta per l’uso a cui destinata. simile a quelle degli alberghi. Facilmente accessibile da ladri professionisti ma comoda per tenere al sicuro documenti e alcuni gioielli soprattutto per la sicurezza in casa quando c’ personale che ha accesso all’abitazione

    This safe is more than what I expected. I love the ability to have the keypad and the key to open it. It’s great that you have to turn the lever to lock it again. The space is amazing inside and the shelf is such a help to organize. I wish the shelf was adjustable but that’s ok. It’s wonderful to have the option to secure it to a wall, shelf, or floor. Great purchase and will purchase again if I need more.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersIf you’ve been looking for a safe to keep your valuables, firearms, etc. but you live in an apartment and can’t keep a massive safe around this one is great. It is quite heavy on its own so it would be a pain for a thief to steal the whole thing. The keypad works great and also has an alarm/lockout if you enter a wrong password too many times. I haven’t had any issues with the battery life and I have had this for a few months. Some will say it can be broken into very easily with a ballpoint pen, but I believe that was fixed in newer models. I tried that method and I couldn’t break into mine. Easily fits a few handguns even full size if you are looking to store those. If you are a metals or coin person this can easily fit quite a few silver or gold coins. If you want to store books of coins you might need something a little larger. If you want to store cash or documents obviously that is not an issue.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersIs a decent product at the price. There was a scratch on the top which they have tried to clear using abrasive and this has left a mark.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI haven’t secured this, it just sits atop a cabinet. It’s quite spacious for the price and I have enough room for my needs. I use the keys and have no batteries in it, because I cannot turn off the beeping when you press a button entering the pin, and I have a nosy neighbor below who listens to everything I do and dont want him knowing I have anything I value enough to put in a safe, which is what I subtracted a star for. Otherwise it is great, though I can’t comment on ease or durability of securing it with the bolts

    This unit arrived with increadible speed ( Next day! ) I have an air rifle, which I keep in a proper gun safe. I purchased the digital safe for the storage of pellets, the trigger group and the gun’s breach. I found that the installation of the safe to be easy and that the instructions were very simple and clear. I installed the safe off site so that no one could obtain a complete working gun, in the event of robbery. It is perfect fo the job. This is a very good product.

    Best Regards,

    A good value option. Bought one of these to tuck out the way. Ok so for the price don’t expect fort knox, I wouldn’t recommend it for cash or high value jewellery but for laptops and documents to keep out the way this will be fine.

    The safe is a good size, 43cm wide so fits even some of the widest laptops which mine is. The metal isn’t massively thick, maybe 3mm so would not hold up to a blow torch or drill for that matter but will be enough to stop chancers. It will certainly be secure enough to stop your run of the mill chancers providing its tucked away and secured to the wall or floor.

    Keypad is responsive and the keys don’t look quite discreet if put on your key set. Not bad at all would recommend.

    It’s worth buying – value for money product. Sturdiness is disappointing but easy to fit in furniture.

    Great size for A4 size documents kept flat. Good for aimple household stuff you don’t want disappearing over time. Does the job for me. Don’t know how long it would take for some serious thief to get into or take thw whole thing if not.bolted down. But I’m not holding the crown jewels.

    It’s a decent size if you’re putting it in a wall or new construction. When full it may be a bit awkward to move. The lock is pretty good, and the shelf on the inside is a nice touch

    Classica cassaforte da mobile, non troppo spessa quindi non credo possa resistere ad un attacco di malintenzionati ma sicuramente per l utilizzo che ne faccio io e ottima. Molto spaziosa. Ci sta tranquillamente un pc portatile di medie dimensioni. Do 5 stelle perch nel complesso un ottimo prodotto.
