Tools and Hardware Reviews of HOMAK HS10036683 Electronic Access Pistol Box, 10 X 3.5 X 7.5 InchCustomer Review: Great Customer Service, Great Product, not so good instructions. Summary: 4 Stars
This product works as advertised and is made of heavier metal than others in the price range. The locking system works smoothly and quietly. The only issue was the instructions for setting the personal code...they didn't match the model very well and were difficult to understand. One call to the manufacturer fixed that though and my lock boxes are working flawlessly now. The interior size of the box is excellent for a subcompact handgun but a larger frame weapon might be a tight fit (especially if you have big hands).
Customer Review: Great Pistol Box Summary: 5 Stars
I got this because I needed a budget-minded way to store my home defense pistol. The unit comes with clear instructions and it pretty easy to setup. The outside of the box is a black enamel with a sturdy coating on it. The letter keys are padded with raised markings for touch.
The box performs great for what I need; a simple, safe solution for pistol storage in the home. With the combination entry I feel safe that my little one, were he to even find the box (which is unlikely), could not open it. It operates on AA battery power. There is also a fail-safe method of opening the box if the batteries fail which is outlined in the manual. With the raised letters on the pads I can even open the box in complete darkness (after some practice) so it is suitable for a home defense safe that may need to be opened without the use of lights in the middle of the night.
The interior of this safe is not very large though it easily holds a small frame revolver or automatic. You could probably get most Glock pistols in there but I'm not so sure about a 1911 or full sized H&K (I didn't test fit them) but it may be possible. The limiting factor will be the opening of the box, which is limited by the pads on the left side. You don't want to cram a big gun in there that might be hard to remove in an emergency. A small frame Smith & Wesson revolver fits easily still in its holster and can be removed very quickly.
Bottom Line: A nice budget gun box for the home; peace of mind, easy on the wallet, works as advertised.
Customer Review: Great Safe! Perfect for securing my Handguns! Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great safe! It will not protect your guns from fire, water, or even an extremely determined thief, but it WILL keep your weapon safely stored in an easy to get to location should you need to access it in a timely manner. I bought this safe to keep my handguns out of the reach of my growing 3 year-old while keeping it close enough to access quickly - it did just that. It takes approx 2 seconds to open, and is plenty quiet. It is well built, and is not a huge eye-soar(no gun safe is pretty to look at). It holds my G23 and my wife's Tomcat with plenty of wiggle room. I have a 9v battery with a Velcro strip on the bottom of the safe should the internal batteries die at an unfortunate time.
Customer Review: Great for mounting in my Avalanche Summary: 4 Stars
I bought it to mount inside the bed of my Avalanche. It's great for valuables and handgun(s). I mounted it just under the drip-rail near the tail-gate so it is easy to access, but doesn't stick out like a sore thumb. Works great.
Customer Review: Great gun safe for the AMAZING price!!! Summary: 4 Stars
I don't know WHY the picture that Amazon shows for this gun safe is wrong...the real photo is the smaller safe that Amazon has listed as HS10036685 (which is 10"x14.25"x7.5" - a much larger safe) - I am VERY pleased with the size of this safe and it will hold both our Glock 27 & My S&W 38. I STILL can't believe the price...the box is very solid in construction. I am having trouble setting up the code so will probably call HOMAK to see what I'm doing wrong but besides that I am VERY thankful to have a place for my gun to go out of "small" hands! I HIGHLY recommend this gun safe!!!
