This is a solid option to secure weapons safely while providing multiple options to access (key, code, and fingerprint). While the fingerprint reader is not perfect, I found its accuracy to read prints improved after storing several prints of both the same finger and multiple fingers. They system holds plenty of prints to store mulitples print across multiple users, thus no concerns of wasting storage on duplicate scans. The one feature I beleive it could benefit from would be a motion sensor light and/or luminated keypad to assist in operations should you choose to remain in the dark when accessing the safe. Ill likely look into attaching a magnetic, motoin sensing, battery powered light for better illumination in the dark for both the key pad, and for the interior storage area.
I cant turn the knob completely to lock the safe. (Not to be confused with the door handle, but you need BOTH to lock the safe). It locks sometimes on the 1st try, but usually, the turning knob stops just short of locking. Help!
I did a good amount of homework on a variety of similar gun safes. I purchased this one and have not regretted it. Read the instructions thoroughly for set up.
Perfect safe! It fits all of our long guns perfectly even the ones with larger scopes, the manufacturer sent us a door panel organizer to put our hand guns in as a free gift! Im very happy with this purchase!
This is a great little gun safe. It might be more accurate to consider it a high security gun cabinet. The reason I say this is the cabinet is not water or fire proof. The sides are a thinner metal than fireproof safes and the door is a bit thicker to house the locking pins. Even though the sides are thinner than a fireproof safe I dont think anyone could break into this safe without a lot of time on their hands. My main reason for buying this particular safe was that I needed a way to keep my guns locked away from the kids while having quick access should I ever need them in a hurry. The fingerprint reader is working great so far. I like that there is a backup battery pack that you can plug into the front in case the batteries that you would usually access from the inside go out while the safe is locked. If that fails there is also a small rubber cap hiding a keyhole you can use to manually unlock the safe. Also, I have a long 12 gauge and I needed a safe tall enough to house it. This safe is a bit taller than most safes at this price point. I had to remove the included shelf, but I think it could be modified with a slot in one side to allow the barrel of the longer guns to pass through. This will be a future project. The other thing I wanted to point out is the AR in the picture has a mounted scope and a 30 round banana clip attached. Even with these accessories the safe door closes easily. The description for this safe says that there is not room for mounted scopes, but I dont see how this would be the case unless you had a huge night vision type rig. Even then I think it would fit if the gun clip were removed. If you are not worried about fire or water proofing this is a great buy!
I really like the product and features to this LAN01XF (Biometric) gun safe offers.? The product is built good with amble room inside.? It also contains an anchoring system (expanion bolts) for the gun safe cabinet for added safety and security.
I especially like that the safe maybe access by a biometric finger scan (multiple prints can be added) or keycode (4 / 8 digits) pad.? Added benefit, the safe also feature emergency back/up key (set of two) and an external interface battery back/up access in the event of internal battery depletion or malfunction.
The multiple rack has storage to fit 5 rifles.? The rifle rack will fit a Wincherster 1300 with a 1/2 clearance to bottom of adjustable shelf (when shelf is place at the upper poistion.
I would recommend this product for anyone looking for a nice quality safe for a great value.
This small ,but sturdy, gun safe was just what I was looking for. Small enough to fit in a small closet but big enough to fit 5 medium sized guns with shelf at top position. The shelf was about an inch shy of being tall enough to fit an old shotgun. I raised the shelf by adding a couple of inch thick strips of wood under the shelf for more clearance. For long barrel shot guns you will have to remove the shelf. My Remington 870 came with a 20slug barrel and a 28 bird barrel. I just put on the short barrel and stowed the long barrel against the back corner of the safe. My deer rifle ( with scope) fit just fine.
I opted for an aftermarket light kit. There are several good options on . It makes it much easier to see your safe contents.
Fingerprint and passcode setup was quick and simple. The fingerprint reader works most of the time. I registered two fingers and thumb on both hands. If the reader fails I just try a different finger. But in most cases, it works first try.
Locking the door is simple. Just be sure its closed all the way before you turn the locking handle. Also, be sure the locking pins are in the open position before attempting to close the door.
The inside locking compartment is small but its adequate to hold some paperwork. Another shelf would have been better.
It comes with a lock out key (2). Also a separate battery pack if your safe lock batteries die. Just install 4 AA batteries in the pack and insert the wire plug into battery port below keypad and enter passcode or fingerprint. According to the user manual, your fingerprints and passcode will remain in the memory even if the batteries die.
Shipping was much quicker than I expected. FedEx actually delivered it on Sunday after Christmas. Packaging was excellent. Lots of foam in the box. It arrived in pristine condition.
Overall, I am very satisfied with this gun safe. ITS NOT A FIRE SAFE. And if someone wants in it badly enough, they will get in it. But its going to take some time. Its solid enough to keep out nosey people and kids. Basically, its built to keep out honest people. Like doors and windows on a house.
This safe is exactly the product I needed to keep my rifles and handguns away from the grandchildren and great grandchildren. I looked at many products before deciding on this as the perfect combination of size and design. My concern was not so much on the anti/thief issue as the safety issue. It was also very easy to set up and secure to the wall in a coat closet.
The safe accommodates 4 rifles, three with optics and easily my three handguns. A fourth I keep I keep in a bedside safe.
Knowing the firearms in the house are secure is worth every dollar spent.
The safe is exactly as advertised and provides a secure storage space without taking up a lot of space. Safe came well protected and was easy to set up. Excellent value for the money.

The knob at the top wont lock!

Spacious and good quality for the money
Love the finger print scanner and the laser cut keys it comes with are top quality the safe itself looks well made and I am enjoying it

Great secure storage without a huge footprint
The safe is exactly as advertised and provides a secure storage space without taking up a lot of space. Safe came well protected and was easy to set up. Excellent value for the money.
