As 2legit said, get one with a "mechanical lock". I had one of the touch pad electronic type and on two different occasions I went to use the touchpad and the batteries were dead. Now I cannot get my weapon. Think how that is going to go over in the middle of the night when you hear noises and cannot get your gun. I KNOW HOW IT FEELS, AND I DID NOT LIKE IT. Needless to say I threw the safe in the trash, I would not even give that junk to someone. OK, it was a "Gunvault"!

I purchased a Fort Knox unit that has a push button mechanical combination system and have been very happy with it, unfortunately it is pricey. Someone most likely makes a less expensive unit, but if not I would highly recommend spending what it takes to have something that actually works.
