Tools and Hardware Reviews of SentrySafe H4100 FIRE-SAFE Waterproof File, 1175 Cubic Inches, Silver Gray

Customer Review: Complete Waste of Money!
Summary: 1 Stars

I cannot open his safe. Yes, I have the keys! I have turned the keys every which way, kept the keys in the lock, removed them from the lock, nothing I do works. The latch that is supposed to release the lock will not budge. I have important documents in there that I need and cannot access. I saw a reviewer with the exact same issue on another site. DO NOT BUY THIS SAFE!

Customer Review: Find something else
Summary: 1 Stars

The first one I bought had the keys locked inside which should have been my hint. But I got another and this thing is really not well made or designed. The hinge on top is very weak, when you open it you can see the plastic around the hinge starting to bend and it looks and feels like it is about to separate if you push it a little bit. I didn't try my luck and held onto it to make sure the lid didn't flop down and fall off. And despite the claim that it is designed to hold hanging files it does not. The opening is too narrow, you had to twist the folders to get them to go in. (NOT the 12 inches they claim I measured mine at around 11 1/2 inches.) And it is not deep enough either. the folders drag on the bottom and did not hang off the sides like they are supposed to. I tried 3 different brands of folders and none of them fit so I know it isn't just the folders I had.

Maybe I will try the FIrst Alert brand one, it has to be better than this.

Customer Review: GOOD QUALITY
Summary: 5 Stars

Is very well built. Has tight seal, lots of room. Really like putting papers in hanging file. Glad I purchased it and would recommend it highly.

Customer Review: Great price for a quality item.
Summary: 5 Stars

I was very pleased when I promptly recieved my item in the mail. It made a perfect Christmas gift, and was a remarkable value. Amazon shipped the item quickly, and it was well packaged. We have not had any problems with the item, the only downside is that it is a pretty tight squeeze for hanging file folders. You can make it work, and it appears that it will keep your belongings safe, but it is a little tight if you want to file a bunch of papers away.

Recommendation. Minimize the paper you have to store by scanning documents and saving them on an external harddrive that you can then place in the box. That was the other half of my Christmas gift, and I think it makes for sensible security!
