I store a few guns and then paperwork and other personal items. The safe is seldom opened. After a few years, the dial mechanism will not open due to a design flaw. Since this is over one year from purchase, Sentry will not fix or replace the safe. Their only recommendation was to hire a locksmith.
I would not recommend this or any other produce due to their inability to stand behind their product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We are sorry for the experience with your safe and thank you for your feedback. I will pass it along to our quality team.
This safe met my expectations for a secure safe and, with the adjustable shelves there is ample room for everything regardless of shape or size!. (I do miss a light source ; however a torch works just fine) this safe is well made and not difficult to install; best of all it is user friendly. VERY IMPRESSIVE.
i loved the size and liked the room for my documents etc

Thank you for your feedback. This particular fire/waterproof safe is designed to store documents and protect them from extreme elements. It is not designed for high security. We do offer other high security safes. To view our options please visit www.sentrysafe.com .
I have experienced several problems with this safe. The first delivery had to be returned because front of safe was badly scratched. The replacement has the felt lining on the shelves and interior is hanging off the edges instead of glued to surfaces. There had been wet, and glue spots on the back of the shelves that needed cleaning. The door needed to be left open to dry out the safe. Now the door will not close properly and it can't be locked.
