We use this safe to store controlled drugs/ medications in a busy residential service supporting adults with Autism. It is accessed multiple times throughout the day.
This safe appears to be an excellent quality product. Number buttons for access are robust and seem able to stand the test of time (repeated frequent use), they are easy to use with plenty of space for big fingers- cannot easily press wrong buttons and can be accessed quickly. Access is simple but contains sufficient steps to avoid unauthorised access. Safe is easy to use and operate so suits a busy staff team with residents with high support needs. Will be replacing other safes over time with this model.

Button style keypad is far better than a flat keypad. Included shelf is very useful. No quite big enough to take A4 sheets in a folder without creasing.

Ideal Home safe for securing personal documents etc (* Check internal measurments against actual requirements prior to purchase)
Shelf is not adjustable so it is either across the middle or laid on the bottom.

Size, Ease of installation. Compact and yet secure. I wish it would take a standard A4 folder.

Excellent stylish product, easy to fit setup & use.
A good security point is that the door auto swings fully open when unlocked.
A big bonus point is the ability to open the safe with a key. My last safes lock failed and it took hours with drills/lump hammer/chisels to smash the door open. All being done in a very confined space.
No light. I use a small stick-on LED light inside.

The safe itself is nice and big and does feel very sucure. Iv not had a crow bar on it to test it but it looks like it could withstand a criminal.The shelf inside is very useful. I have added an led light that comes on when the door is opeded to mine but apparently there is a model that has this included. The one issue i did have was with the fixing bolts, they were very light which instinctively told me they were cheap and not made of a good material and when i drilled the hole and tried to tighten them they snapped, which meant I had to head to the hardware store for replacements.

Dimensions do not include the control panel which is about 1 cm more this meant the doors won't shut on my cupboard when I ordered safe basedon stated dimensions

I ordered the large safe so that I could keep an A4 document inside... which it does but only if you stand it up don't think you could put an A4 file into tho. On the positive side I really do like this safe it was easy to set up and not as heavy as I was expecting. I love that it comes with keys and batteries included so you literally could just set it up and you were good to go. There is an internal shelf inside the safe too which can be removed but I preferred to keep it in there to separate my items. On the whole I'm really pleased with my purchase and the communication and delivery of the product were second to none. Would definitely consider buying from this firm again in the future 10/10😃

This is our second purchase of a Yale Office safe for our new home office which was based upon our satisfaction with our first Yale (smaller) safe.
We required an additional one with just a bit larger capacity and this ticks all the boxes. We particularly like the keypads operation as they are easy to read. Our research found there are cheaper safes on the market but we feel Yale offer value for money and home insurance company recognise the name and I believe reduced the premium. The Web site is clear and ordering process is straight forward and delivery was as promised.

The product is good, well made and sturdy. The locking/unlocking mechanism takes a bit of getting used to but can be mastered easily enough. Plenty of storage space inside and it can be securely mounted easily. I had a slight problem when I tuned the safe upside down while the door was open - The door fell off its hinges and a little spring came free! A bit of thought allowed me to understand the spring loaded door mechanism and put it all back in working order. Beware if you turn it upside down with the door open - although why you would want to I have no idea. I can't remember why I did.

This is the second (larger) safe that I have purchased and I wish that I had bought it in the first place. It is ideal for all our key documents and easier to use because of the larger door. The operating arrangements are straightforward and the safe itself is not so large that it cannot be anchored in a cupboard. It was good value for money and I have no hesitation in recommending it for general household use, even for those households with a relatively simple lifestyle. I did look at other options but this safe came out top when taking into account the functionality that we were looking for.

This Yale safe was just what we needed for our small office. It is the next stage up from a home style office safe that is so easily fills up. This Yale safe offers you plenty of storage to securely store money and valuables and documents with two shelves to easily organise everything neatly. The safe is also so easy to use. It can so easily be secured to the office wall or floor offering added security. This Yale safe is smart looking and made by a company that is well known providing added peace of mind that everything is secure.

The safe is exactly as described. It is easy to programme and use. You can only JUST fit an A4 folder in, if the safe were 1cm deeper it would fit easier

It comes with the insurance guareantee and its reasonably priced.
fixings supplied are not very robust and I found it quite easy to drill as I needed to enlarge fixing holes for larger fixings.
Also I think it could be cut quite easily with a thin stainless steel blade in a cordless mini grinder

Safe is as good if not better than a hotel style safe, with the added bonus of a key lock. Asking how secure it is in a questionaire is like how long is a piece of string.If it was wrenched off the wall and opened with a grinder then not very. Perfect against casual burglar.

The people at the safe shop were very good and helpfull, the order was quick and handled efficiently by the team there. The delevery run was perfect for us and the product very well packed with no dammages to the unit. Once out of the box, it was easy to handle it and find a suitable place at home. We like the colour and the digital screen is nice as well. We find it simple to use, fits easely in a confine space within the home. We find it practical as it has in addition to the number screen a set of keys was provided should we forget the pass code or the batteries fall flat! Thanks

I had to use the safe as a template to secure it to the wall, this was difficult as I wanted to raise it above the skirting board. - A template sheet would have been useful. Once secured it is sturdy and feels a very professional fix. The combination lock is very easy to operate and open; and closing couldn't be simpler. I have to raise the shelf to take out A4 files but it is an insignificant problem overall I am very pleased with the purchase and consider it great value for money. Although not Fireproof I feel it would give at least 30 minutes protection similar to a fire door

The service from ordering to receiving was first class. It is a fairly good size (although would have preferred a few extra inches wider).
It has a shelf which is removable if you prefer to put in larger objects and also to move up to get A4 size papers and cards in without having to bend or scrunch them up. The other good point is having 2 keys should you forget the code or the battery dies.
I would recommend it to anyone that has documents, jewellery, passports to keep safe and the size is so versatile that it would fit in lots of places where is not on show, such as a storage cupboard, under the stairs etc. The pre drilled holes and bolts are a necessary feature and a must for good security.
Overall I am very pleased with my purchase.

I bought this safe for home use. It is ideal for installing in our fitted wardrobe -- room for shirts hanging above and shoes stored below. Plenty of room for jewellery, cameras, watches etc. inside.
A4 folders can be stored flat.
Fixing the safe to the wall was quick and easy with the plugs and screws supplied.
Setting the opening code is straightforward and even my wife says that locking and unlocking the door is a piece of cake.
My big worry was thinking of a hiding place for the key which opens the door if batteries fail. (Hard for a thief to find and easy for me to remember)
This safe should deter most burglars and what we keep in it is not likely to attract the skilled safecracker.
