    I believe they're 14g steel and always bolt them down.

      Good price, I have one a little bigger then that with a dial combo. Fits perfect in my walk in closet, makes a great second safe.

              I want to say congratulations, but those safes are a joke. Can be broken into with a large screwdriver. If it's just to keep the kids out, it'll work.

                Haven't seen the screw driver trick on these. The real deal is when they are occasionally 299. Ironically the interior is much nicer than the 500 dollar Canon safe.

                  Years ago I made the mistake of buying a cheap Sentry Safe without doing much research. I figured a safe is a safe. Man was I wrong lol.. A sturdy safe is my next safe. Best safe for the money.

                  Good video on safes. Worth the time to watch:

                      Any safe can be compromised. The key is multiple levels of security. Safe, alarm system, dog/dogs.

                      In the absence of dogs....a proper security system will have the bad guys running out the door before they can ever find the safe.

                        Second on security system. Get one that has a back up battery with its own wireless in case your power gets cut - Simplisafe or Frontpoint.

                          Layered security is the key as others have posted

                            The absolute top elements of security revolve around keeping your guns a secret and hiding the safe in the house.

                              I saw those. A bit pricey for how small it is.
