Heavy, robust looking and feels robust, Metal construction with 2 keys. The hinges are concealed. It has a fair amount of space inside it. size is reasonable to conceal in confined spaces.
Shelf mountings were broken when received and seemed flimsy. I also had to buy butter bolts for fitting into concrete.

A good home safe for important documents, credit cards and so on. Easy to install and use. I'd use it in addition to a burglar alarm and home contents insurance since nothing will prevent a determined thief.
The safe door moves a little when its locked. Other than that not much else to say.

I needed a small personal safe for important documents and some valuable. So I wanted to be able to place A4 folders on one shelf and jewellery trays on the other shelf. The Phoenix Fortress SS1182k accommodates my needs very well. I chose to have a key operated safe for two reasons. I felt the additional cost of a digital lock made the whole expense rather high and also ensuring my wife can access the safe was easier with a key which we keep in a discreet location in the next room and the spare in the key locker elsewhere. I had the safe securely installed in a built in cupboard so that its not obvious and would be very difficult to remove. I feel I have an excellent safe without going to enormous expense.

An unanswerable question - the safe is only as secure as access to the key! Where does one hide a safe key in a bed-sit flat? As the safe is not accessed regularly, the key is a little too large for keeping on everyday keyrings.

The safe is great - the service was exceptional. The driver carried it to the door as i'm disabled. These days with online purchases, its the service that counts just as much as the price - thank you

We were told by our insurance company that we had to have a better safe, one with a £3000 cash limit (not that we ever have that much cash I'm afraid!)
We looked around on the internet and decided on the Pheonix Fortress SS1182k safe as offering the best value for money along with the space we needed.
We ordered it via the internet from Safe.co.uk and next day it was delivered.
Excellent service.
The safe was what we had expected and was well built and sturdy. I had a query fitting it and rang Safe.co who sorted it out without fuss.
Again excellent service.
I would recommend them and the product to anyone.

This is the second safe I have purchased. It is solid and easy to fix. Be careful to measure the depth of holes before fitting the bolts.
Much better quality than any of it's near rivals smooth locking mechanism good shelf options, and hard wearing paint finish. If ever I upgrade this is the make I will stick to and stay with Safe Co. Delivered before time and kept you informed . Well done.!!!

Compact but not too small. Ideal for our use as it is required to fit in a relatively small space and be easily secured to the floor. Very easy to install using the supplied fittings. The only minor drawback I found is the internal space is limited when the shelf is installed.

This product is ideal for our purpose. The delivery was efficient, it was easy to fit, and it works well. The shelf provides a good split for document storage and provides a focal point that allows us to always know where things are. Putting stuff in the safe is the obvious option for Wills, service contracts, etc. no more searching the house for bits of paper, hidden amongst the dross.
Safes are not just for diamond tiaras.
