4.0 out of 5 stars A lot beefier than I thought it would be, January 30, 2007

By	Mike and Griffin (Madbury, NH) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

Thieves can knock over banks so recognize that this unit simply serves to delay and frustrate... ideally you should couple this with other home security measures.

Pro:
-Heavy duty... this thing has some heft to it
-Easy to install, 4 screws/hardware included
-Holds a lot of keys, but I think 30 would be a little crowded especially if you put a ring of keys in here (but it's doable to hang 30 keys in here-just note the limitation on size)
-Has a place for key on the back of the door, plus you can set some keys (or other things) inside on the bottom
-Code can be more than 4 digits
-I think this is the same unit featured on the TV show "It Takes a Thief"
-Code was extremely fast and easy to set (and would be fast and easy to change)

Con:
-Color leaves a lot to be desired... a lot darker than pictured too
-Can use each number (0-9) only once in the combo
-It was a little difficult to see the lock codes as they were being set, so be sure to have good light and your glasses
-If you have a lot of junk on your keychain, you'll have problems fitting your keys into this box

Bottom Line: Decent for smash and grab robberies, might as well make it harder. Recommended for use with other home security products such as an alarm, charlie bar, etc.

1.0 out of 5 stars Convenient, easy access, April 1, 2007

By	Ben Lampel (Bethel, CT) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this 30 key locking key-box a few months ago so I could keep car keys and other spare key in my garage without having to worry about some stealing one of my cars. It is very convenient for me to have all my keys easily accessibly so I don't have to find them if I have to move a vehicle. The locking mechanism broke and would not allow me to get my keys out. I opened it in less than 15 seconds with a small pry-bar - I'm not sure it would slow anyone down if they wanted to get in, with or without the combination... I would, however, recommend this unit to anyone who wants to keep their keys centrally located with easy access and isn't too worried about anyone stealing them (and who is handy with a pry-bar.)

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Product with same flaws of the Single Key version, February 11, 2007

By	Angela Lee (Madison, AL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We love the fact that you can lock up all your keys in this box. It makes us feel more secure. Is very nice to keep extra sets of keys in and to keep your keys in when you are not home.

I didn't have too much to complain about the color. We just have it in our garage so it is no big deal. If you were going to have it in the house out in the open, then the color would probably be annoying.

Installation of the entire system ("2-key" key box AND this device) took about 20 minutes total. It wouldn't have taken that long if we hadn't poked a hole in the drywall where we were going to put one of the screws :P

Setting the combination was much easier that I would have thought. The hardest part was figuring a combination that was secure, but easy to remember. While setting the combination was easy, the combination is also the source of my only complaint.

My main complaint with this is the same as with the GE AccessPoint 001413 Slimline Pushbutton 2-Key KeySafe. The sequence of numbers for the combination doesn't matter. "1 - 2 - 3 - 4" could also be "4 - 3 - 2 - 1", etc. I didn't want to have to pay a lot for this (and really couldn't find one that had this feature) so this will work out fine.

I would definately recommend for about anybody to get this device. It is very handy and much better than laying the keys on the dresser, table, or where ever you can find a spot. An added bonus is that you always know where those keys are and don't have to tear the house down looking for them when you need to get out the door!
