This is an excellent safe!

Finding a safe designed for a laptop is a problem in its self I was concerned that my laptop which is a 17.3" Vaio would not fit (door opening, not the internal space) however, placing it in at an angle worked perfectly.

It is very easy to use and the fixing bolts supplied and used to fix the safe to a concrete floor are substantial but could perhaps be a little longer.

The LED light is perfect as the safe is installed in a rather dark area. There is lots of space even after the laptop is stored inside too!

The service from The Safe Shop is excellent and delivery was swift and on time and I would not hesitate to recommend them or this excellent safe.

Nice strong safe. Hard to install safety upstarts because most walls are breeze block and weak. So I put my one in the empty airing cupboard (small walled place, so hard to get at) and connect by the back and the bottom.

Extra Items required (Ebay) - two 5*50mm flat iron bars, 8*6mm bolts with security bolts to join the, angle brackets 4* 80mm/80mm 4mm, 4*8mm (about 25mm long) bolts with plastic inserts tops, to connect inside the safe to the iron bar(and you can remove if the safe breaks) - 8*5/80mm (about 15mm long)screws to fix the angle brackets to the wall. 1* 8mm and 6mm Cobalt drill bit (drill very slow and press hard with a drop of oil, else it will go blunt). A lot of planning to get the hols in the correct spot :-) and about 8 hours if you have never done anything like this before, like me.

3mm body and 8mm door. Seems more like 2mm / 6mm. But seems strong and the way I have it fixed in, it would take alot to open or remove.

Nice and secure, easy to hide if you've got the space. A nice piece of kit. Didn't like the bolts, but hey for a couple of quid you can pick some decent ones from Wicks.

This product could do with a shelf so that you can put laptops on one level and all the other important stuff on another level.

This is a very solidly-built and stylish product which is big enough to hold my 17' laptop whilst still having room for many other small valuables. It's the perfect size for fitting inside a wardrobe or cupboard and is light in weight and simple to install. The keypad is easy to set up and security seems to be very good. It's just perfect for my needs!

Very easy to use. Internal light is a nice feature. It switches off on a timer if the door remains open to save battery life. The door opens on a spring which is good if you want this feature; not if you don't. I would buy this again because it feels really solid, is stylish and good value for money IMO.

The fixing bolts are enormous and only just fit through the wholes at the back / bottom (maybe they're supposed to be really tight?). This can slow down the install though.

Before buying this product I did some research. For the specification and price it was the product I chose, and decided to buy from Safe because they had the most competitive price.

The product was delivered next day and packaged well. The instructions were clear and all the fittings I needed were included in the box.

I drilled four holes in the solid brick wall to ensure I had a good anchor point for the safe. The safe itself is very sturdy and solidly built.

Once installed I ran through the set instructions and had programmed it within minutes to my desired code.

Overall I'm pleased with my purchase and hassle free shopping experience with Safe.

An excellent product that I have had for three months now. It was easy to fix to an outside wall with the fixing kit provided. I am sure that somebody determined enough could remove it, but it would take time. We have an alarm and do not need to store anything that would make the effort worthwhile.

It is so quick and easy to open and shut using the key code that we store a number of things in it that we did not originally intend to. Including car keys. My car has keyless entry. As well as the spare key, I store the main key when I am not using it. Being in what is in effect a Faraday cage should prevent my car being stolen using the latest wheeze of a repeater. This has the other advantage that I always know where they are.

The one problem that we had was the spare master key. We have that being held anonymously for us over 100 miles from where we live.

This is a very good product for ensuring that your laptops are secure.It is easy to install.

After installing the safe (securing it to a wall) we found that the display was defective. there were two 7's and no number 3!!! By that time it was too late and we are left with a strange display. The lesson that we learnt was to check the display BEFORE you install it.

I think this is a good product and I bought at a great price. I found the safe easy to install and easy to set up the user and master codes, although the instructions could be clearer. As you would expect from Yale, it appears to be well constructed and solid. There is more than enough capacity for all my needs, including my laptop and documents, and room for valuables from the rest of the family. It is nicely lined and comes with a very useful interior light. It has the added bonus of being a certified safe and the override key gives further peace of mind.

Got this safe as the size and shape was ideal for what I needed it for. Has a big floor space but restricted height and this was perfect for my watch collection. The safe is well made and easy to use. I have it bolted to an external wall plus screwed to the floor should should prove very tricky to remove if I got burgled. Was annoyed when my home insurance insisted I had a certified safe but so glad I have one now. It gives total peace of mind knowing all valuables are locked away.

I wanted a safe big enough to take our Ipad, laptop, USB backup drives and camera lenses along with various paper work. I looked around and in the end focused on this safe due to its internal measurements and its turned out to be ideal. I had seen people questioning the build quality because there is slight movement of the door when it is shut but this is not a fireproof so I wouldn't expect a 100% seal and the movement is no more than I have encountered in the many hotel safes I have used.

A minor criticism of the design is that there is probably enough height to have a shelf to help separate out the contents - it can be a bit awkward to get at things when all lying on top of each other. However I would want the shelf to be removable so that larger objects such as cameras could be held in there when wanted.

A couple of points for people who buy this safe.

1) It comes with bolts to fasten it to a wall through the back of the safe. The bolts include attachments to tighten into a brick type wall. If you take these attachments off the bolts for any reason take note of which way round they were as this is important for getting a sound tight fitting.

2) This safe has two separate combinations so make sure you work right through the set up instructions and don't stop after setting the first combination thinking you've finished - easily done if you don't know about the second combination. The second combination is set to a default value so unless you set this as well the safe could be opened by anybody who knows the default. I guess this is useful for a company or guest house type environment who want to allow different combinations on multiple safes but to also have one override combination so as not to have to use the physical backup keys if combinations are forgotten, etc. As I just have the one safe I set both combinations to be the same.

It might be worth including a bit of info on these last two points with the safe or on the web site, just as reminders.

The unit fits nicely on the shelf of one of our fitted wardrobes meaning it is very securely bolted to the wall. The instructions for programming the code into the lock are not absolutly clear, however after a good read the method does become obvious and is easy to work out from there on. The storage capacity is not huge but it is as expected with a safe this size. The internal light on the unit is a real bonus especially when Like ours the safe is situated in a dark position. The inclusion of a key that can overide the electric lock is a necessity; yes! I managed to forget the first code I entered.

I found the operating protocol of the safe to be more complicated than I wanted or expected, having (like so many people) become used to hotel safes, where you simply enter a code, press 'Close' and that's it. While I am sure that having an additional key activated option makes the security of the product greater, it increases the complexity. My immediate desire was simply to use the code locking process and forget about the key. However, the instructions are not very clearly set out. Like so many 'global' products these days, they have been produced largely in sign language with brief (far too brief) descriptions written in nearly ten different languages, most of which are irrelevant to me.

Takes my 17 inch laptop, my works 15 inch laptop, netbook, ipad and there's still room for passports and other documents.

Looks good too.

Would be useful to have an internal adjustable/removeable shelf.

The base of my safe is not truly flat, slightly raised in the middle, but the carpet masks this a bit.

- Compact but plenty of room inside for all essential documents and IT equipment or other valuables.

- Fixing kit included.

- interior light helps see contents at opening.

- Override key provides safety fallback in case of electronic mechanism failure.

- Pricey for its size.

This product fulfils the brief very well, its made to a very high standard of quality with strong materials, I like that you have the option to use either the key or code choice to operate, neat fob cover for key entry interior carpet lining is practical for any delicate items to store , plenty storage with both hight and width.

Laptop storage works well and still plenty of room for other items of storage.

Yale is a reputable name and this has been proven with this item, it is a brand I would look for should I need to make any further purchases.

I was a bit apprehensive about buying a safe and having it fitted because obviously I had never made a purchase like this before and had no experience with websites of this type. But the website was easy to navigate and the information was clear and easy to understand. I rang the helpline to get further information and found the agent very helpful with concise information in answer to my queries. the fitting also went like a dream.The fitter arrived on time and in a little over forty five minutes had installed the safe with no mess and no fuss. He answered all my questions and I was able to set up and operate the safe in a couple of minutes. Overall I was pleased with how smoothly the whole process went from purchasing the safe to having it fitted and I was also pleased with the price, particularly the cost of fitting which I thought was extremely reasonable. If only plumbers rates were that reasonable! I rate the whole experience as five star.

It's big enough for a couple of laptops, a lot of jewellery, watches, passports and pretty much anything else you value. Coding is pretty simple and there are a couple of override keys in case you forget the code – keep them off site.

Installation can take a while. We installed a shelf for it to sit on and then had it epoxy bolted into the wall. It'll take more than a crowbar to remove it. In all, a good product. Delivery was good – exactly on time, without excess packaging. All in all, good and not that pricey. Recommended.

This save is value for money and provides adequate security if properly bolted down. I use it to store a a laptops and important documents, and it's easy to use once you've setup your initial PIN code. It's quite spacious - I can roughly fit in around three 15" laptops (stacked) with a little room to spare.

There are four locking bolts to help you secure the safe. I chose to secure it to a concrete floor. It would have been good if the walls were a bit thicker, but hopefully it will be enough to deter burglars. Two keys are included as backup, should you forget the PIN code or the batteries run out. Definitely value for month, and I would recommend to anyone looking for a relative inexpensive safe.

The product is solid and well built but you need to buy some bolts to secure it as the supplied ones aren't that good. Also to program the key number to open and close the safe you need to watch a YouTube video as the supplied instructions are the worst ever and totally useless. Having said all that don't let it distract you from the excellent build quality and superb size of the safe. You get two keys provided and although I have not had to use them they are a good back up. The internal light is great as my safe has been installed in a built in wardrobe and it makes finding the contents easy. This safe is well recommended.

Great value for money.

The exterior is very elegant. It was the most elegant safe I found and that was the reason why I bought it. I am sure it was the best choice.

The safe is very easy to use and has got excellent storage capacity.

The material with which it is made is strong and the format (perfectly square) makes it easy to fit anywhere.

I would suggest, however, two changes: (1) the use of a metal piece to cover the key hole (logo "Yale"), as the current type is made of plastic and does not rotate properly; (2) offer more elegant keys, as the current one are too big and old-fashion.

We have purchased a laptop safe from the Safe shop previously so we felt confident purchasing another safe from the same supplier. The safe was purchased online and arrived within a couple of days. The item was very well packaged having the manufacturers heavy duty packaging as well as another sturdy cardboard box as well as plastic banding. The cost of the safe was the cheapest we found from any online supplier. Basic instructions as well as heavy duty fixing bolts (only suitable for brick or concrete substrates) are included. Detailed operating instructions need to be downloaded. The safe has a handy interior light which switches on when the door is opened turning off after a short period of time to conserve battery power. We are very pleased with the product, price and speed of delivery.

I bought this safe for lots of people to have access to, so it gets opened and close quite often every day. It looks good and the buttons on this one are solid, unlike our last safe which were rubber and split after a while. It is used by a variety of people, some quite elderly, and they all find it easy to use. It was very easy to install and set up. We have not had it long enough for me to comment on battery life, but we are still using the original set after 3 months of daily use.

I would recommend this safe.

Very pleased with the safe. It is extremely well made & substantial, we like the led light which is a nice feature.

Ample room for storing laptops and similar items without buying a large office style safe, although compact it has the depth to handle your laptops and tablets easily.

6 digit key code and a quality keyed lock back up, just in case you forget the key code or should the batteries fail. If weight transfers into strength, then this safe is more than ample, certainly has a more than adequate feel to it. Quality fixings and a good number of location points to secure the safe in different positions. All in all a good sized quality safe and great value for money.

It's easy to hide from view. It's not chunky but has enough spaces for 2/3 laptops and a few more gadgets around the sides.

It didn't drill firmly into the ground but that might be more due to the awkward location that we chose. Nonetheless, we are very happy with this purchase.

It have enough space for a laptop and other items is easy to operate and the internal lght is a plus. This is my secon Yale safe this one I bought for personal/business use in order to storage a laptop.

Delivered on time, and competitive price as usual. The data in the website was rerally good and allow me to have an informed choice.

Water proofing and no fire resistent. I know that in case of laptops the fire resisten property can never gurantee the survival of the laptop, but at least they shall be build with some water protection. Initially it was quite hard to understand how to find the key hole.

I bought this safe as I had been recommended to have an electronic safe to store the keys for my gun safe so that opportunist burglers would not be aqbloe to find the gun safe keys and steal the shotgun. Then I thought storing two laptops would be a good idea when we are an holiday as well as all the othe small valuables. This is well made and works really smoothly. The wall fixing is easy, but you have to support it when doing the job. I built a wine rack underneath, practical and uses the space!

It does the job, easy to install except for the fiddly screws to secure it to the floor. It feels well built and the storage capacity is great.

I was originally sent a faulty safe but was replaced immediately by safe.co.uk and pleased with the new one. Obviously it's difficult to test the security of it as I don't want to damage it but seems to work perfectly.

Setting the code and using the instructions was really straightforward (on the replacement one). The only thing I didn't fully understand was the master code and what it's for so might need to do a bit more research. For the money though I'm really pleased.

The safe itself is sturdy as you would expect, fitting instructions are clear and easy to follow; I fitted mine in a cubourd anchoring to a wall. Code reset was simple as long as the instructions were closely followed. I needed the safe to store trays of gemstones, so the laptop style was a perfect fit for this. The safe performs as you would expect. My favourite feature is the light, it’s a real bonus and makes use of the safe so much easier! I would definitely recommend.

Had the safe now for a few months, it's a very good bit of kit, it would be a good idea to give prospective customers some hints or ideas of how to bolt the safe down, not all house's can have brick walls and concrete floors , I won't say how I managed to secure my safe to my wooden flooring , but I did use some large concrete blocks , and some other things , .

My larger laptop fits in it well, and there is enough room for quite a lot of other items. The outside of the safe looks good and I really like the fabric lining and light inside. The safe was quite easy to install, but the correct tools are needed to do the job properly. The delivery was very quick and, after shopping around, I feel the item is good value for money.

The Yale laptop safe is perfect for storing your laptop and any valuables. I have installed several of these safes and my customers are always delighted by the storage capacity and build quality and of course the Yale name gives you additional peace of mind. It comes with operating and full instructions (not needed, it's simple), a set of batteries and a full fitting kit to enable it to be firmly anchored to any suitable surface. All in all its simply unbeatable for the price if you need high security storage and is 100% recommended by me and my customers.

Sturdy, easy to use and confidence inspiring safe. The main criticism is that the included anchors are fairly weak and I replaced with much bigger bolts and needed to drill larger holes in the safe to accomodate larger bolts. The internal light is almost pointless but perhaps a white interior would help this? When it is open the door can be lifted off the hinges and removed entirely. It would be useful if the door could be reversed to open the other way? Overall I would buy again and be prepared for extra work to ensure a firm anchor point.

I've had this safe for 6 months now, accessing it on a fairly regular basis, and it has excelled in every sense. More than meeting my expectations certainly.

The only thing I would point out is that it really is only properly secured if it is installed as directed - ie. by being bolted to either a wall or floor. The size and weight of the safe even with contents is still in the range of being stolen itself.

For the purposes of what it is being sold as, it perfectly fit's the bill and is easy to use. I'd definitely recommend it for laptops, documents and suchlike.

The quality and security features of this product are very good and very easy to use. The flexibility to install it to the wall or to the floor was an added feature. The provision of interior light and the cloth lining is very useful feature of this safe. I feel much safe with safe given it is very sturdy and made of thick and heavy sheet at a price quite affordable. The bolts provided with the safe may not be useful as in my case I wanted to install it to the wall inside the wardrobe, so I needed to by 6inch bolts.

My only experience of laptop safes comes from staying in hotels. Wanted something similar for the house and this fits the bill perfectly. Build quality is excellent. Fitting and operating instructions are easy to follow. I’m a novice when it comes to DIY and managed to fit this securely and have it working in less than an hour.

The safe can comfortable hold a 15” MacBook Pro, iPad and power supplies with plenty of room to spare. Getting the laptop in and out of the safe is easy to do without fear of it causing damage. I’m confident that this safe will secure my gadgets for years to come.

Bought the safe using the the safe.co.uk website - which made choosing and purchasing the safe a breeze. Good communication followed and the safe was securely delivered at the agreed time. I do not hesitate to recommend this safe and safe.co.uk to colleagues, friends and family.

The safe was packed well and easy to install. Using the pre-drilled holes and bolts, I fixed the safe back to a brick wall behind the safe and located it on a shelf in a cupboard.

The safe was easy to programme for first use and operation was straightforward . I have found it best to hold the door in a closed position while inputting the open and closed codes. The confirmation beep in each case is audible and precise.

Capacity of the safe is perfect for our requirements, especially as we wanted to keep our laptop safe while we are away. There is adequate space left for documents and other valuables.

In todays world it makes perfect sense for every home/small business to have a laptop safe. With about £5k of assorted laptop's and tablets its not only the cost of replacement but how would you go about replacing what's on them. No matter how often you back up you will never replace everything they contain. As I am self employed and work from home the loss of earnings for even a day would be more than the cost of the safe, let alone the days spent buying new equipment and trying to replicate what was lost. Apart from that I also get a discount on my contents insurance.

It comes with the bolts so its only a matter of drilling the right sized holes and bolting it to the wall, or floor.

It has exactly the right amount of space I need so everything , including laptops, fit in there perfectly.

Setting the codes was easy and it is useful to have 2 codes. Also the quick lock feature is great.

The keys may be useful if I forget the code and its good to have a reminder NOT to keep them in the safe though they need to be secure somewhere.

The addition of LED lights is brilliant as I do not need to use a torch most of the time.

This safe is not very large, so won't work if you have a lot of jewellery or valuables to store. But, for the average household, and particularly in high risk areas like London, it's really useful at a really good price. I wish we had had one years ago; we now store passports, cash, birth certificates, and a few pieces of expensive jewellery in it and feel much more comfortable leaving the house, or having workmen in the house. Very simple to use. I recommend it.

If you put a laptop in it, there wouldn't be a lot more space, but does what it says on the tin and is a good shape for both documents and boxes. Our first safe had a small component (a spring) that connects the battery missing. Unfortunately, Yale couldn't send us the component and the whole safe had to be replaced and the original safe collected (separately) by the manufacturer. Therefore the reason for selecting this supplier (their very convenient delivery) was negated by having to stay in for the next delivery and collection by the manufacturer. Happy with the safe itself and would use the supplier again.

The safe arrived promptly and as specified by the currier. I found the safe easy to fit with basic diy skills and tools. The safes size and usable capacity are slightly reduced by the bolts/ mechanism on the inside of the door- care must be taken when closing the safe to ensure valuables aren't trapped or damaged by this. The key pad entry system is very easy to program and use. A future improvement would be for the number keys to illuminate whilst in use, this style of safe is ideal for siting inside a cupboard for example, where lighting might not be great whilst entering your chosen code number. The led's inside the safe on opening are ideal. Hopefully the batteries will last as the safe now fitted, is in daily use. I would recommend this product for anyone needing a reasonable size safe for small items, laptops, documents etc that need to be accessed frequently and with minimal fuss.

The delivery was prompt and the safe was well packaged to prevent damage. the safe is quite heavy so you need a good firm surface or wall to mount hte safe on, it comes complete with all the necessary fixings and it has pre drilled holes in the rear and in the base to fasten it in position, you just need to decide whether to mount it on a wall or bolted to the floor, or both for added security. The perfect safe for me at a reasnoble price.

I wanted a safe that would take my old laptop and plastic folders taking A4 documents. This safe was better than expected, allowing me to store more documents than originally planned and also good space at the side for passports and other smaller items.

One feature I would have liked to see is an illuminated keypad. Not a huge problem, more of an inconvenience than anything else.

Build quality is as expected for the price. Installation was pretty straightforward with ok instructions. I use the safe perhaps four times a week and had no battery issues. Overall I would recommend this safe.

Great product. Well made, easy to use - basically 'it does what it says on the tin!'.

Worth paying the extra for this model over the 'standard' laptop safe made by the same company - the build quality seems better, it is certified for a higher value for the items stored in the safe, and the brushed steel front cover looks good.

Some areas for improvement:

1) Operating instructions for setting the security code could be a little clearer, but once you work it out, then it's pretty easy. I assume using pictures only makes it more universal and saves on translation costs.

2) The bolts supplied for fitting could be of better quality, but then the cost of getting more secure fixings is not high. Installation is a little tricky as there is no template supplied for the fixing holes - I strongly suggest that you make your own template as it is quite critical to get the positioning of the holes in the right place - there is little margin for error with this.

I must stress that these are minor points - overall a good product that provides good value for money.

I had been on the look out for a laptop safe and found that your web site had the ideal selection of safes on a sliding budget that surprised me. I hadn't realised I could get a safe of that make and model for such reasonable money.

I can easily fit in two large laptops and a couple of tablets so it is ideal for my home office needs, and helps me conform to a Government security standard as well as an Industry Best Practice in Information Security.

It is a great piece of kit, and a robust and easily concealed safe.

I am impressed with it.

Thanks

This product is very similar to the type of safe one finds in good hotels. It is easy to install, but a little complicated to set up. It is not as intuitive as hotel safes and I had to read the instructions a number of times. I would recommend it for home use.

This safe is easy to use, small but positive keys and LED lights inside. There's a positive clunk when it locks and unlocks too. I don't use it for a computer regularly but the larger floor area means there's plenty of space to lay things out without stacking.

It was heavy to move and feels very strong as a result - as it should.

It was the security ratings that sold this model to me - one of the best for domestic use and complies with insurance requirements.

It comes with bolts for fix it to a concrete floor or solid wall only. I had neither where I wanted to install it so I ended up buying large carriage bolts to fix it down. You will need a spanner / socket set too because there's not much height above the bottom of the safe.

The product is very well made and easy to use.

Larger than those around the same price. i use it every day and i have had no problems with it at all. We looked at all the other safes that are around and read all the reviews and decided on the yale. it bleeps loudly when entering the code and the light inside is a big help. After ordering this safe it arrived very quickly, was easy to set up and it was easy to secure in position with fixing bolts. i would recommend this safe to anyone, a great buy.

I thought that the order process was simple and straightforward. I was able to select the best safe for my purposes. Delivery was very quick and it arrived within the estimated time frame. The packaging was minimal and my safe arrived in good condition. The instructions were included with all of the necessary parts for installation. I was able to install the safe without any specialist tools. The safe itself is of a high quality; I love the electronic lock and the light for inside visibility. The carpeted internal cavity protects my possessions when they are stored. Overall I am extremely satisfied with the product and the added security it awards me.

The order process was simple and all my initial questions were answered when I calling the Safe Shop. This was my fist safe purchase, so I had plenty of questions to ask. Although the website is very efficient on its own. Fast delivery was arranged and item came as expected the following day.

Excellent item and quick to install.

Feels solid and secure and is very easy to operate. Insight LED is a great plus as it makes it easier to find items.

I would certainly recommend the Safe Shop for its items and its customer service as well as reliable delivery.

Great safe ! But for me, I had to changed the bolts for something with more substance. A quick trip to Screwfix solved that problem. Otherwise good storage capacity .Easy to follow the instructions to set-up, and thereafter very easy to use. Looks fairly well made and if weight transfers into strength, then this safe is more than ample, certainly has a more than adequate feel to it. It has a number of location points to secure the safe in a few different positions. All in all a good sized quality safe and great value for money. Very good experience shopping at The Safe Shop.

My first safe, really smart and plenty of room to fit my ultrabook and other bits. Easy to use and auto opening with the code and supplied with fixing bolts etc.

The light is a nice touch and essential although the plastic it is mounted on covering the hinge was a little loose and on the cheap side, have managed to clip it back in a bit better and the wires are a little exposed also so it's just something to take note of if ramming the thing to capacity. So that is my only slight criticism but hardly an issue really 9/10!

Good storage capacity, fits jewellery, iPads, cameras, keys, documents and an assortment of bits & pieces. Need to follow the instructions carefully to set-up, but thereafter very easy to use, and is programmable with any number between four and eight digits. Looks fairly well made, but unable to comment on security because it hasn't been tested yet - and hopefully never will be.

Very good experience shopping at The Safe Shop. The first safe arrived very quickly. When it proved to be faulty, it was collected and replaced very quickly with no fuss. The Safe Shop were also very helpful with a technical problem when setting-up the safe (because I had not read the instructions correctly).

This is a Laptop safe you are looking for, its perfectly fits my large 17 inch laptop in addition to Two other household laptops that i have, the build quality is very good unfortunately it has no shelf but then I bought this Safe for storing my Laptops. the installation was not complex you do get Four standard bolts to keep the unit secure this will require some drilling, but at the end of my two hour secure installation I was proud of the results. The LED light feature is very useful to see inside, it will auto shutoff after some short time but you can turn them back on using the LED button on the keypad.

Our daughter returned to her home after a holiday to find she had been burgled. This prompted us to investigate a safe for my jewellery, a few documents and the iPads etc. when we are away from home. We wanted the higher insurance 20,000 rating.

This safe met all our requirements and at the right price.Husband fitted it with relative ease and it is easy enough to use with the key pad that I do use it most days.The interior light is useful to find smaller items.We would recommend this safe and like the feeling of security it affords us.

Its very well made and fits in the space just right ,the led lighting is supurb as its in a dark area and although i used a different method of fixing my safe (4 x 8 mm threaded rods through joists into concrete) the fixings supplied were ok for a standard installation

its important to read the instructions to the letter as if you lock the safe with the key you can only open it with the key.

when you input the correct combination the locking bolts retract and the spring loaded door opens smoothly with the led lighting covering the entire internal area

I am very pleased with this product

Excellent product. Stylish and well constructed, easy to operate. After a burglary where all my jewellery was stolen I decided to buy a safe. After a bit of research I opted for he Yale laptop. Its wide enough for my laptop but I would have liked slightly more room for other valuables. Not a criticism of the safe however, just hindsight. A bit like buying a safe AFTER a burglary! Don't wait, buy one and your precious items will be safe from opportunistic burglars. I've had it properly wall mounted and it has given me peace of mind.

Ideal product, I have been looking for a suitable safe to store laptops and iPads while away and this is an ideal size accommodating my needs without being intrusive on space. Needless to say, it also comfortably holds jewellery, watches, passports and other valuables on a daily basis.

The safe is simple to use, without a long series of steps each time it is locked, and the interior light is a definite aid. Installation can be completed quite quickly by anyone even slightly handy with a drill. I think the safe is tremendous value, although not the cheapest available it certainly provides the level os security to give me peace of mind.

Excellent Safe, best price I found and smooth and easy transaction process. Safe was delivered promptly in a plain box giving additional piece of mind whilst item in transit.

The safe came with fixing bolts and is easy to install and had clear instructions for usage, the safe has a bright internal light, which auto switches off, and has a key to open in the event of battery failure.

There is plenty of room within the safe to store multiple laptops and other valuable items, although there is no shelf - meaning items need to be stacked (but I don't see this as a main problem).

I bought this Yale Safe around four months ago, and I am extremely happy with the purchase. The size is perfect for two or even more laptops, iPads, cameras, documents and many other valuables. It is extremely easy to use, and we haven’t had the slightest problem in this regard from the beginning. It’s great that it has an interior light that goes on as soon as you open the box. I always use the code, but it is reassuring to have the key, just in case. When I bought it, I had excellent advice from the manufacturer about the fittings to fix it to floor and wall. We hesitated about whether to buy one or not for a long time, and, in fact, wish we had bought it earlier, instead of trying to hide valuables every time we went on a trip. We are really happy with our purchase, and fully recommend it to anyone who needs a middle-sized safety box.

Yale laptop safe - Would highly recommended this product, great quality and great price from safe.co.uk. Although, this is branded as a laptop safe, the extra size is excellent to get everything in and the added internal light feature is a massive bonus and reinforces the quality of this product.

I would highly recommend this safe if you have taken the time to click on the website page, you will not be disappointed and will start to think if you purchased a second one, where would you place it.

Again, great buy and would highly recommended safe.co.uk as a company as they are friendly, professional and supply top products, no rubbish!
