With a thick 10-gauge steel body and a 3/16" wrap-around door this safe is not only practically impossible to break open but it would be insanely difficult to even dent this thing.

It features the tried and true Simplex push-button mechanical lock which is fast and easy to use with the potential of 1,081 different combinations. The antique silver powder coat finish gives a durable yet beautiful look that creates a sense of strength and quality. The interior is lined with foam in the style of egg crate to help protect your valuables and guns from damage or scratches. Depending on the size of the gun you can easily fit one and potentially fit two. The pre-drilled holes in the bottom make it convenient to be bolted down to the floor, a drawer, or any other flat surface. These pistol boxes come with a manufacturer's lifetime warranty and surpass the California Department of Justice firearm safety device requirements proving its extreme quality.

User questions & answers

Question:	would you recommend bolting this to the floor or would keeping this in say a drawer be fine? suggestions/comments/ help appreciated please and thank
Answer:	It could be bolted.... I have mine sitting on a shelf in the closet..... I have it more for keeping kids safe as opposed to protecting from thieves....
Question:	is the hinge internal ? Can you show a photo of the hinge
Answer:	The hinge is one of two known vulnerabilities of this safe, it is a weaker -- and yes, external -- piano hinge and there are demonstrations of it being pulled off with a medium screwdriver and very little noise. Fort Knox has removed the picture where you can see the hinge from this listing after the incredibly easy vulnerability was discovered. Front plate with lock mechanism is held on by two tack welds. And once you have seen the inside of the safe you know where to apply pressure to those. Any handgun safe you have seen the inside of is likely for a knowledgeable able person to defeat very quickly with minimal tools. There are demonstrations of this safe opened in 20 seconds by lock experts
Question:	Can anyone advise what is the exact distance between mounting holes from the top to the bottom and side to side
Answer:	I took a picture, but could not upload it. Here are the measurements: Looking at the safe with the lid open, TOP Left hole 1 7/8" down and 2" across to the right. Bottom left hole 1 7/8 " Up from bottom and 2" across to the right. TOP Right Hole down 2" from top and 1 13/16" from the right hand side, Bottom Right: 2" in from the right hand side and up 1 7/8" from the bottom up to the top. Hope this helps.
Question:	Does this have any UL ratings
Answer:	This safe is CA DOJ Approved. UL ratings regarding safes begin at Residential Security Container and require a UL Approved Electronic or Dial lock. This safe uses the Simplex lock which does not satisfy UL requirements. Please note, there are zero UL approved "pistol safes" . They begin at home safes typically measuring at least 10" H and consisting of 12 gauge steel.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this american made? And why negative reviews
Answer:	The door automatically locks when you close it. There is nothing that lets you know. Every time I close it when I am outside- I check it -and it is locked. I also have a dead bolt above it that I use.
Question:	does this came with a key for back-up entry
Answer:	No they will not cover both holes. You'll have to get a door with no holes drilled, drill your own or with only one hole.
Question:	I don't see the holes for bolting it down, where are they
Answer:	Not sure how long it last but I bought my lock March 2017 and change battery today Febuary 2019. battery was still working but keyboard lights were not very bright after using the lock for exit and enter every day after install.
Question:	Is the handle removable
Answer:	Yes the handle is snapped onto the side you need it on when you install the main body.

Question:	How can this case be secured? Can it accomodate a cable? Can it be bolted
Answer:	I don't know the exact weight but when it's empty it's very light. I have problems with my hands but it is not an issue with a full cup.

Question:	What does this safe weigh? Thank you
Answer:	I have the standard double cup holder. This coffee mug does fit my cup holder if it’s the only cup. If there’s a second one it doesn’t fit because there isn’t enough space for the handle.
Question:	Would this install underneath the back seat of my crew cab? The back seat lifts up
Answer:	Placing your stainless steel Simple Modern products in the microwave could cause damage to your product and/or your microwave. With that, we advise our customers to never place our products in the microwave. - Simple Modern

User questions & answers

Question:	how do i attach a cable to it
Answer:	No, it doesn’t require any batteries.
Question:	How is this different from the Stealth Original gun box....is it 10 gauge steel
Answer:	There are four mounting holes. They are 3/8ths of an inch in diameter (9 mm) and come with plastic inserts/covers that can be popped out with a fingernail. I don't have a recommendation for hardware other than using smooth-headed bolts on the outside and nuts on the inside so the bolts aren't easily removed. You may want large washers if you mount on wood panel.
Question:	Does it have a light inside when the door is opened
Answer:	Hi - the safe weighs 20 lbs. It's weight / design once bolted down with the 4 pre-drilled holes in bottom of safe ensure solid security for a small personal/handgun safe. It is meant to be bolted down.
Question:	Is the exterior handle removable
Answer:	safe has 4 pre-drilled mounting holes in bottom plate. You would need to have 4 holes through bottom of truck floor to secure. Additionally you would want to leave ~1 inch clearance on left side for door swing clearance. Securely mounted, it's an excellent gun safe.
