Tools and Hardware Reviews of First Alert 2054DF 1 Hour Steel Fire Safe with Digital Lock, 0.80 Cubic Foot, GrayCustomer Review: Pleased with my purchase Summary: 4 Stars
What impressed me the most about my purchase was the packaging. In so many past experiences with amazon I have had outer boxes literally destroyed by the UPS delivery people. This time a pleasant suprise - the shipment came through by FedEx and was drop-shipped as opposed to having amazon simply put the manufacturer's box into their own. Whoever prepared the safe for shipment should be given an extended coffee break, for the safe came through without harm or injury. The care and attention given to the packing and material used was most evident. Well done!
Now to the item itself: I found the interior shelf to be a rather skimpy and cheap accessory. It could have and should have been made sturdier. The four clips used for it to rest upon fall out easily whenever the shelf is pulled forward - a "natural" procedure when trying to get to the item(s) placed upon it. Not a very well thought out design.
The instructions for setting up the key code are lacking in specificity. I could not locate the hole behind the door to proceed with the set up. At first I thought perhaps the wrong safe had been sent. Then it "dawned on me" to remove a plate that was screwed to the back of the door. There it was! The plate apparently was provided for heat protection for the inner workings of the comination. None of this was mentioned in the instructions. At any rate, mission accomplished!
I think this safe should have been provided with the fixture(s)necessary for bolting to the floor. The weight isn't sufficient to prevent someone from carrying it off - with difficulty, but still it could be done.
I'm not convinced that an override key isn't also a key to burglar access. Meaning if one key can do it all, why couldn't a burglar?
While I'm hardly an expert on assessing whether this safe or any other one will meet the tests, I hope that day never comes. It appears to have been manufactured well and does provide for the security we have sought.
This item meets our needs and I am pleased with the purchase.
