Phoenix Lacerta GS8001K - 3 Gun Cabinet Reviews
/ 10
This is a good safe. As I have one I bought this one for my niece for Christmas. It is good value, well made and the locks are slick. We found if we fiddled around and dismantled shotguns it will actually take four. However it is ideal for one or two, plenty of room and good internal support. It was easy to fit, bolted securely and satisfied the FEO's inspection without a problem. It fitted behind a door comfortably and is very unobtrusive. It will take a scoped rifle, two at a push if stored sideways. However I think it is best used as a shotgun cabinet. Excellent product and would buy another.

A very nice cabinet which has a good quality finish. It comes at a decent price and was delivered exceptionally quickly. The main aim was to keep the local Firearms Officer happy and he confirmed it met all of his expectations! The room inside would be OK for 3 guns, but if you have sights attached then I think you would struggle to get them all in there. Fitting the cabinet was easy - all of the necessary wall anchor bolts etc were provided. All in all a very quick and easy experience. I'd be happy to recommend this company.

This is a very solid cabinet, well finished and excellent value for money.
I was able to install it myself using a power drill and driver without any issues at all and the instructions/guide was clear. It is absolutely exactly as described and I have no hesitation in recommending it and safe.co.uk who delivered the safe on time and discreetly packaged. It came with 2 x sets of keys, the locks are robust and have a very positive locking mechanism so you are certain that the cabinet is secure.
This cabinet was bought due to a house move and was approved without hesitation by the Police.

It is a very sturdy cabinet but I find that having two locks is causing me frustration as having unlocked the top lock you cannot remove the key whilst the lock is in the open position so you have to take the second key off the key ring to open the bottom lock. My lever action carbine fits fine but me percussion shotgun is too wide to fit comfortably. This is probably my fault as, being in my seventies, I was brought up in feet and inches and find it hard to visual figures on metric. I will probably have to buy another but deeper cabinet and keep this one for any blackpowder pistols I may purchase..

Great little safe. I’d prob just put 2 guns inside to avoid damaging them as cosy. Plastic Rawl plugs come included.....I don’t like plastic plugs so bought steel anchors for a few quid, but that’s just me being very cautious. Top marks though for a great value safe. Great service too.

This is an Excellent product and is very well built and perfect for the job in hand. It was very easy to instal and also very easy to use. It is very secure. This was a three gus cabinet that i purchased and there is plenty of room for three guns. The delivery was quick and the cabinet was securely packaged and arrived on time. The overall process of purchasing and receiveing the product was simple and hassle free. Having received the cabinet it was well worth the money. I would have no issues recommending any to buy this product.

Relatively easy to fit in upright position on garage wall , with bolts provided - firearms officer could not shift it when he tried to rip it off the wall.
3 gun cabinet accommodates a blunderbuss and a flintlock cavalry pistol with a very bulky snaphaunce lock, but doubt if it could fit in a third

The selection on the web site was very good and the web site itself was very clear and easy to use, from browsing for information through to purchase. The product is very good quality and it and its contents were exactly as described. This also meant that installation was very straight forward. The service from Safe was also very good. The safe was well protected by its packaging so had no marks in spite of a significant dent to the packaging during transit. The delivery was also as committed to by Safe, which made being present for it easy.

Excellent product. Really good quality finish on the outside. The gun safe feels very sturdy. We have mounted it into custom built cupboards and it really does look the part.
I would say that I would probably have gone for the slightly larger one as this one is listed as a three gun cabinet but that doesnt take into account if your rifles are scoped. Perfect for 1 or 2 if you also have scopes, go for a larger one if you are unsure.
Two good chunky locks, order process straightforward, turned up on the expected day with no damage.
I would recommend this safe and also safe.co.uk

My only comment is that the storage capacity is as advertised, but because of the way the door opens, the access size isn't great. Maybe all gun safes are similar. I should probably purchased a larger safe, but it will do fine now that it is installed.

Fast and efficient delivery by very freindly driver. Installed the cabinet with the fixings provided. Security is excellent with two locks with high security keys. Just a small point but thought it was a very good feature. You can't take the keys out of the lock if it is not locked. Hence the security is better still. No taking your gun out and forgetting to lock up. You HAVE to lock the door or the keys won't come out. I only have one shot gun but if I had two or three I can imagine this being an issue. Overall I am very happy with my cabinet. Well made, secure and totally unobtrusive.

The Gun Cabinet is excellent quality, build and ease of use. As I have three different styles of shotgun, an over and under, side by side and automatic they are a bit trickier to fit in the cabinet, it would be perfect for three over and under. To be honest it's no biggie I just have to juggle them. The delivery was a bit of a challenge as we live on a new estate and the address wasn't showing up. Also the carrier damaged it, it was badly scratched and twisted slightly but once I contacted SAFE they were brilliant and offered me a refund, an exchange or money off. I can't say fairer than that. I would highly recommend SAFE and this cabinet.

I bought this gun safe to store 2 guns which it does very effectively and securely. It passed the police inspection with flying colours and met all requirements. So my only small comment was the top key lock is temperamental, it still locks but you have to fiddle with the key a little before it fits into place to open the safe, similar occurs when trying to remove the key. If it wasn’t for this it would have had 5 stars for quality. Now here is why the storage only gets 4 out of 5. I had to store a friends gun temporarily and whilst it did fit with some jiggery pokery (you have to put this 3rd gun in first as the door prevent you accessing it or putting it in with the other 2 guns in the cabinet. A minor point but hence not 5 stars. Overall a very good cabinet and very much worth the money would definitely recommend.
