Customer Reviews

I was looking for a gun safe that would allow me to store a handgun in the bedroom in a safe manner but still would allow for quick access. This safe does both of those things. It is solidly built and is well thought out for the job it was designed. (Easy to mount, inconspicuous, and even has an alarm if it gets picked up when it is armed - although I recommend mounting it to something)
Although it is electronic, the combination/latch mechanism is simple enough that I am not that worried about failure. There is also a key release. My fingers fit into the grooves very easily and the safe is very easy to program. The fact that I can program keys in any order as well as any group of keys (I can press down multiple keys at the same time as part of the combination) adds to the ability to create combinations that are simple, but would be difficult to discover.
The safe runs of both AA batteries and an AC adapter. Putting in the batteries the first time is a little tricky, but once you do it once it is not a big deal.
For any prospective buyer of a quick access gun safe, I would definitely recommend this safe. One point though, I ordered the smallest safe which has one tier. This allows for the safe storage of one firearm and one clip and not much else. If you want to store extra ammo or another firearm as well, definitely go for a larger model.

I purchased a Gun Vault gv1000 std in January of 20006. The first set of batteries I installed lasted 7 months. I thought they may have been old so installed a second set. They Lasted 6 months. I then called the firm and spoke with a tech who informed me that heat has a very negative effect on battery life. The third set lasted 3 months. I then determined that Gun Vault was not acceptinjg their safes for repair and my warrenty was expired. I removed the mechanism from the safe, installed new batteries and tested them daily. I found the batteries losted .1 volts daily with no use in an air conditioned environment. There is an obvious defect with this product which the company is not responding to. I caution against purchasing this otherwise fine looking product.
