Guest Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/part...IGITAL+SAFE.htm I was bought one of these for christmas, and fixed it next to my cabinet, is probably a bit bigger than that one, but is a good piece of kit. Well worth £11 for that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurcherboy Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 @ £11.00 I wouldn't put anything of any worth in it LB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 The one I have (which was admittedly £30) has a welded construction with a strong door, heavy guage steel, 2 big locking bolts, bolted to a block wall, you'd have to be a very determined thief to get into it, and this £11 version looks very similar, It's better than leaving ammo and shooting kit lying about.

Andy W Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 I have one of those safes, my FEO had a look at it and advised me to keep my gun cabinet keys in it so it cant be that bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radio1ham Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 i bought one of those when applying for my fac to keep bullets in when feo came to inspect it he would not pass it and i asked him why it was well made and good guage steel his reply was they were to easy to break into he said all you would need to do is remove the flap for where the manual key over ride is and force a screwdriver into the lock and turn and it would open or it would push the lock right through just like what the toe rags do when breaking in to cars so i would not recomend using one of these when applying for fac but any real safe should be ok not these cheap ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackNco Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 (edited) Hey sorry to drag this back up. but I just joined the forum to do some more reading on applying for a FAC and noticed something that I can actually help on. There are at least 4 ways to open a "safe" like this, if not 5. and all take under a minute. Even if it was officially passed as something you could store ammunition in I wouldn't recommend it. B&Q do a doubled sided 4 lever lock mechanical safe which should be easy enough to upgrade to past BS ratings even up to a 7 or 9 lever safe lock. and its only £20.00ish. As a tip anything with a mechanical override is a waste of money and any safe with an electronic keypad or user interface under a group1 safe lock is not worth bothering with. Hope that helps John EDIT: PS hello everyone, first post. I'm sure I wont be posting much till I get round to getting a FAC but great forum. everyone seems pretty helpful and friendly Edited March 19, 2008 by JackNco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taz24 Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 (edited) I agree Jack. Most DIY stores do a key locked safe for about £15 to £20. They meet the minimum British standards so will prevent all but the most determind thief. I have had a Gun safe built for me and I put one of those smaller safes in the top for the carts and it does the job well. Cheers taz.

Lloyd90 Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 I used one of these when applying for my FAC and it arrived yesterday, I guess some forces will allow them and some wont. You might want to check before you go and bolt it to the wall lol :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
