Solidly built. After I installed it the Police Firearms Officer examined it carefully and deemed it more than adequate. The lockable top section could also be used to keep the bolts from rifles separate from the gun in the main section below.

The quality of this safe is excellent and with a 5mm thick door with multi locking bolts the security is reassuring.

The only problem I have found with the GS5 is that if you are considering it for shotguns then be aware that the internal height is limited. I only just got my 30" o/u in and my semi auto has to be broken down. My opinion is that it was originally designed for rifles the manufacturer hasnt thought it through. If they made the lock top box an option then it would be perfect as this isnt of much use for a shotgun user.

Well finished product that was easy to install. Very secure cabinet and easily fits the 5 guns it claims. Useful interior lockable ammunition section. I would reccommend using your own fixings as supplied wall bolts are not the best quality

New House New County New Firearms Officer. I wanted a secure easy to fit gun locker that would meet with police approval. It had to be easy to fit by myself and take at least six guns. This safe fitted all these demands. The installation an drawl bolting took about an hour.

The safe itself is reassuringly heavy of good build quality and has a one key opening with safe like deadbolts on the interior to secure the door. The door would be impossible to force or drill and I have fitted and anti tamper device to the door linked by WiFi to my alarm system.

This gun safe was delivered dy courier and was very well protected by it's wrapping, arriving un damage considering the size and weight of it. It was also nice to hear from the company upon delivery asking if everything was ok and in order.The safe itself came with bolts to secure it to the wall which turned out to a reguirement by my police authority.The police inspected it when secured to the wall and stated it was more than adequate for the job for which it was intended.Build quality is excellent, easy to open with the two sets of keys provided.Great value for money.

This is really a very good gun/rifle safe made to an extremely high standard. It passed the police inspection with no problem. I had the safe installed by Burtons on blocks, which I provided, to ensure that the skirting board didn't cause a problem, as they safe needs to be fitted flush to a wall.

I have never purchased a gun safe before and was a little hesitant. However I found the process of finding the correct safe for my needs through safe.co.uk easy. The safe is well built and fixings supplied allowed it to be easily installed in location. There is ample room for the rifles I have and with a separate ammunition compartment large enough for all the various ammunition it really does tick all the boxes. The police who visited to check the safe before allocating a firearms certificate commented on how sturdy the safe was and well fit for purpose. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a gun safe.

Storage capacity is very good. From an operation point of view it would be better if the door would open beyond the 90deg to allow easier access.

Only real issue is lock handle is stiff and needs encouragement to fully withdrawal the locking pins, I am sure this will improve with use
