Our verdict

A small portable fire box with a key lock and carry grips for papers and valuables. The fire rating is short, and the copy claims water protection that the specs do not list.

Overview

A privacy key lock closes this small SentrySafe box, and carrying grips make it easy to move. The lock is meant to hold the lid shut in a fire, which protects papers inside.

A half hour fire rating and a replacement promise suit basic document protection at home. The sizes in the title and specs differ, and the copy mentions waterproofing and a different capacity that the specs do not back up.

Who it's for

People who want a small, movable box for passports, papers and media on a closet shelf are the target. Anyone needing a water rating, or a high fire rating, should look at a larger safe.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Key lock holds the lid closed in a fire
  • Carrying grips for portability
  • UL Classified fire rating
  • Replacement promise after fire
Cons
  • Short fire rating
  • Water rating not in the specs
  • Sizes differ between title and specs

Performance notes

The fire rating gives contents protection for a limited time at a set temperature, and the key lock holds the lid shut under heat. The interior is shallow, so thick items will not fit and everything lies flat.
