Even in this digital age there are important documents like auto titles, wills, birth certificates, etc. that you need to keep safe. Our document file is big enough for all of these, yet not too large to keep in an unobtrusive place. I appreciate having this fireproof /waterproof box, as I've had a couple of friends lose their papers to house fire or water damage. This box may help us avoid that hassle.

I am glad to have the safe cause I know my papers ect are well protected in case of a fire happened at my house. That’s why I wanted a safe such as the one I got. And plan to have it many years to come too. I like the idea it’s by a key you can get in other then a combination. Like that lots better too. But overall I do like it lots.

Large with lots of space. File folders for nicely. I haven't had a fire so I can speak to how it holds up then. Only down sides I have is that the key doesn't want to go in and you have to fight it a bit, and it's heavy and slick so moving it can be a pain though I guess that can help prevent it being stolen.

I just hope, if ever needed, that it actually works. I read the reviews before purchasing, and I agree. It is NOT a safe. The locking mechanism is very flimsy. And the unit is heavy and awkward. Definitely needs a handle or two. But I bought it to keep valuable papers safe in the event of a house fire. So I trust I am secure in that aspect.

I Bought this safe to replace a previous 1170 I like the weight, storage and fire rating. One drawback are the hinges. I had to replace my other 1170 due to the hinges wearing out and the white construction material coming out. Once the hinges were wore out it was no longer secure and you could pry the lid off easy. Otherwise I like it.

thought the price was great and I am happy with this product. So nice to have the hanging file capability rather than papers, folders piled flat in my previous safety box . No more having to take all out to go through for specific paper. Organized and hanging neatly. It is heavy and sturdy.

The metal part of the latch that locks the box gets bent easily preventing the lid from shutting until it’s bent back straight. Anyone can easily open this safe with a flathead screwdriver or even a butter knife. My safe didn’t come with keys, so I open it with a knife when needed.

The safe certainly serves its intended purpose. However, it's heavy. Being heavy and slippery, it really needs handles to pick it up and carry it. Other than that, only minor issues. The label on the inside was peeling off upon arrival. I took it off and attached it to a piece of paper since it didn't have a prayer of staying on the inside cover and I didn't want it to fall off and get stuck to papers I put in the safe! The key lock isn't a lock, more like a latch. It's not for security, it's for fire safety so don't expect top security. The file folder rails are built in but the description isn't clear. It's a very good value if all you want is a fire safe.

I like the size of the safe, and the fact that I can place hanging file folders in it to keep all of my documents organized. I purchased it specifically because it is fire resistant so that I feel I can safely keep my personal documents in my home for my children to easily access in the event that something should happen to me.

This safe has taken the place of multiple other containers. I really like how much it holds and the built in tray for the hanging folders is great to have too. I wish it had a Pocket built into the front or back of the inside, or even the top to put small things in like spare car keys, just so they aren't in the bottom or causing bulges in the hanging folders. I would also like to have some kind of edge on it to lift with because I don't always get into it where I store it.
