Very good value safe and cash-rated for £1000 (£10,000 for valuables)which was exactly what I needed for insurance purposes.

Flexible back and bottom fixings to suit most locations.

Very easy to change combination and 2 emergency opening keys if the combination is forgotten.

2 very strong locking pins which were larger in diameter than similar products on the market, which I assume gave it the cash rating.

Similar to those found in hotel bedrooms, and big enough to store all normal household valuables, documents, etc..

I did not require waterproof, or fire-rated storage, as this increases the price considerably.

The painted finish will protect the safe from corrosion, and should last for many years of use.

Only 2 emergency keys are supplied, so best stored safely away from the safe, and in separate locations, in case one is misplaced.

Relatives, or trusted neighbours are a good choice for one of the keys.

I was advised that replacement keys were not available.

Don't use the factory default code, as this will be the first tried by unauthorised attempts to open the safe.

Also try to avoid house, date of birth, and repeated numbers, as this reduces the security level for someone who has this information.

Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase,

I purchased the above safe and on first inspection seemed to be a good product. I had a minor issue with the changing of the entry code but a quick phone call to Safe and all was resolved. Don't be put off by the small size of the safe as it holds quite a lot more than you think. I think for the price paid (not a lot) it is excellent value for money.I would have no hesitation in recommending this product.

Thanks.

My insurance company decided that I needed a safe to comply with their terms and conditions. So I set off on an internet journey looking for a small compact safe in which to keep a couple of watches and some personal documents. After a little while I came across Safe.co.uk. and they had just what I wanted, a safe that was compact, met the requirements of my insurance company, and was well priced.

Despite the Covid 19 pandemic and all the problems its causing, Safe.co.uk promptly dispatched the safe which arrived a couple of days later. Hats off to the delivery drivers as well.

The safe is compact but has enough space to hold everything I need it to, it is well made and finished in a pleasent, neutral gun metal grey. The electronic entry is simple to set up and easy to use, and all the fittings are included making it easy to install.

Excellent service in difficult times, great product, exactly what I needed.

I purchased this safe as a gift for my husband who has a bit of a craze for collecting loose change, so this prevents money from being in cupboards and drawers around the house.

It was despatched and delivered promptly which was very pleasing. Packaging was strong and suitable for purpose. Once opened clear concise instructions were easily available and easy to understand, even for pensioners like us! Installation and attachment to a secure place was simple and straight forward, the instructions being in a simple language. After installation it was very easy to input the code and set up the safe. The materials in the safe are sturdy and it does not look ugly when in place on the wall. Now we have used it a bit there have been no problems and we would have absolutely no problem in recommending your product to other users or, indeed, purchasing further goods from you in the future, Thank you.

Safe U.K. gave excellent info and service at a very competitive price and I am always happiest when I can buy for a U.K. company .

A very happy customer here.

Would recommend this product wholeheartedly. Great value for money. Delivered when they said it would be with us. Instructions inside the packaging were easy to follow. Installing it where we needed it was simple. It was easy to buy from the internet. I feel sure had we had problems the company would have resolved it straight away. They seem to be that type of company. Safe itself was very well constructed - I'd like to see someone break into it. They stand no chance. This is certainly the best safe I have ever see. So if you are looking for a safe I highly recommend getting this one

It was easy to set up and has proved easy to use as well. It is perhaps a little lighter than I would have expected from a safe: the sheet metal is quite thin and the back sheet can flex slightly when the safe is anchored to a wall through the mounting holes, which means that it isn't too hard to force a thin gap between the back of the safe and the wall when it is mounted. But one shouldn't expect Fort Knox at this price, and it is sufficient for my purposes. Oveall I am happy with this purchase.

Overall, I would recommend this safe for anyone looking for a cheap yet relatively secure safe for smaller goods or items. Despite the fact that the plastic covering for the key snapped off at the start (but was fixable) the safe itself is of a high quality and could easily be installed onto a wall or floor if wanted. The space inside is enough for some small documents (Such as a passport or birth certificate) but in reality could not be used for much more. I haven’t had any problems either with the handle or numbers and the batteries have lasted over a couple months so far easily. Ideal for anyone needing something cheap and as a deterrent.

Don’t know why I dithered about buying. It’s perfect for peace of mind. Not too big yet big enough for jewellery and cash etc. Easy to operate. And there’s a set of keys if you forget the combination. Just remember not to close with the keys inside! And if you’re like me and have loads of keys, it’s a good idea to take a photo of them on your mobile so you can find them If your memory fails.

My old safe had worked well for over ten years but developed a fault. Needing a new one I did an intensive online search.Most were unsuitable for various reasons, too large, small capacity or too expensive. Then I discovered SAFE ! It totally had just what I needed . Large enough capacity to hold jewellery plus important documents.but compact enough to fit in a small hidden location. But also an excellent price .What I also like is how easy it was to change the code.It has the added benefit that the code can be longer than on my old safe which is a huge plus in it's favour. Good quality at a great price !

Fabulous safe. As in lockdown now for a year and a half thinking of ways for improvements in the house, and I thought time I had a place to put insurance documents and papers in a safe place family can reach if anything untoward should happen during Pandemic. This was just the job. Held everything. Bank details, holiday plans, bank cards, Insurance Policies. Euros left from last holiday nearly 2 years ago. all in one place.do not have lots of money so like to be safe. A great gift. Buying more for family for birthdays. safest way. #
