SentrySafe Quick Access Pistol Safe Review
September is Child Safety Month. Although a pistol safe isn’t a typical “child safety” item that would immediately come to mind like a baby monitor, it can be a life saver… literally.
I recently contacted SentrySafe in response to a local incident. A 3 year old child found his Dad’s pistol and accidentally shot (and killed) his sibling while playing with it. With my husband’s line of work, we have had a pistol in the house for 20+ years. Up until recently we had been relying on pistol locks and keeping the gun on a high shelf, but in an emergency a pistol lock can be clumsy and the key may be on the other side of the room.
The Sentry Safe Quick Access Pistol Safe is one of the best products I have found on the market with the attributes I was looking for. This safe offers features such as a zero feedback electronic lock and compression gas strut allowing you to quickly defend your home when seconds count. Engineered with a solid steel, pry-resistant door, your home and family are protected by the most secure pistol safe SentrySafe has ever made.
This safe can be opened by pressing a programmed series of buttons or with the key. In an emergency situation the buttons are in a great location and easily found then pushed… even in the dark. There is plenty of space inside for my husband’s concealed weapon as well as a duty pistol.
Some of the amazing selling points that convinced me this was the safe for us…

I’d like the 0500 FIRE CHEST
I like how quick and easy the safes can be opened while still being secure – had envisioned difficult/time-consuming combination or key lock – wow, has technology improved things!
1150 White Safe.
Thanks for the chance.
I really like that it’s quiet and can be opened one handed so it’s quick and easy
I love that the safe can be opened one handed!
I like the quiet features that are available. Especially at night everything is louder, so quick, quiet access is important.
I like the fact that it is super quick to get open and that it open quietly.
My husband really wants to get a gun and get a conceal and carry license, but with 2 small kids in the house I was very uncomfortable, this makes it seem like it really would keep the kids out and I could rest easier….
I want this gun safe. My husband would use it!
The Keep/Safe® -KS4100 would be another item I could use.
I like that this safe has a pry-resistant door to help prevent unauthorized access.

I like the Fire-Safe-GM12459E for guns. My daughter wants to get a safe for her husbands guns for Christmas
I like the key-less entry for it making it quick to get in.

kims2312@verizon.net
I’d like the KS2100 KEEP/SAFE® FIRE CHEST
Could also use the CB-12 Safebox
I like the H2100 Waterproof Chest
Would love this! With my husband’s profession, we also have guns in the house. This would be great to add extra safety!
I like the SentrySafe GM1055E Electronic Lock Gun Safe.
I learned it only takes one hand to enter the safe!
Love how easy it looks to open one handed…we could really use this!
it’s nice that it’s quiet and quick and easy. love that it’s one handed!
I am a very paranoid personal to begin with, but having a gun makes me super paranoid. Like you mentioned above that is my worse nightmare. I would get some relief with this.
i love this! my ex has a gun in his house and it makes me very nervous when our son is over there.this would help ease those nerves and give him a place to keep it while still having it readily available.
I also like the Gun Safe-GM1055E that can hold 10 long-guns. Such a great Christmas idea for anyone who hunts!
I would also love to have the KS4100 KEEP/SAFE®
I like that it has quiet entry and can be done one handed in emergencies

Thank you! Great features for safety, but also accessibility if necessary.

i like how easily you can open it if some burglar is in your house
Would like to win one for our household!
I like the quick quiet entry
The Waterproof Fire Chest-HD2100 looks like exactly what I need for peace-of-mind. We live in a manufactured home, but we had extensive flood damage when a 220 gallon fish tank had a pump malfunction. Thank goodness all my files were kept in the closet at the other end of the house instead of the closet behind the tank!
I really like the 7150 wall safe. Small and convenient, would be perfect for me.
I learned that this safe is specifically designed with a pry-resistant door that helps prevent unauthorized access to your firearm.
I like this product has a quick and quiet entry.
Thanks so much for the giveaway!
I like that it opens quietly.
I wouldn’t need this, we are a gun free house but I have a friend that could. Her husband owns guns and they keep them locked up tight but I always wonder if someone broke in their house how would they get everything together? I mean the intruder has their weapon ready, they are not going to say ” Oh, wait a minute, I will let you get your gun together so it will be a fair fight” . This would be perfect for them!
i would love this safe for my gun
I love the quick access feature. When using a firearm for home security it doesn’t provide much security if getting it out takes forever in an emergency.
i like that you can open it with one hand
I like the Guardian Storage Box-GB20L boxes too.
I like the 1180 fire file!
I like the 1150 Fire Chest
I’d like to have the SentrySafe Quick Access Pistol Safe. I carry concealed everyday and just lay it on the dresser every night, but we don’t have kids right now. The Quick Access Pistol Safe would not deter me from carrying daily or from keeping it locked up because it is simple and quick to get into.
Perfect for keeping the kids and family safe.
That Pistel safe is the neatest thing ever! Knowin u can even whisper to it and it will open in case of emergancies! My father had passed on in October and left me our family pistel, this would be great to have for it!

The pistol safe would be my choice, since I just have 1 handgun to secure.
i would like to have their fire safe file 2B2100
I love that you can register your safes online to be able to retrieve any combinations in case of forgetfulness or loss.

Wow…this whole post and the Sentry website really got me thinking. We don’t keep a concealed weapon in our home, but my sister does, and she doesn’t have a place like this to stow it safely away. As my children get older, this will actually become more of a safety issue for them when they visit. Thank you so much for bringing this product to my attention!

I like that it featers a “whisper quiet” entrie. Makes u feel safer instead of a big click and sound as to alert a burglar you have a gun. I also just like the idea of a gun being im,possable for a child to play with!

I seriously want this pistol safe, but I would also like to have the KEEP/SAFE® Fire Chest-KS2100.
I could use this, I recently purchased a gun for protection and could use a nice case to put it in to keep the young ones safe. I leave it up out of reach and hidden but you just never know.
I like the fact that you can get cases without keys because I can just picture myself fumbling for the key.
I like the long term Guardian Storage Box-GB20L.
I like the X075 Security Safe.
GM2459E – We need one of these! We are storing guns for 2 of our kids. I’d feel better if I had them safe!
Something that holds 24 guns sounds like a lot, but it would be holding guns for at least 4 people & would have lots of room.
I like the quiet entry
I really like that it’s easily opened with one hand and still able to be over ridden with a key, all while keeping my little ones inquisitive little hands off my fire arms
I want the 2460 FIRE-SAFE® Document Chest
I would love this gun safe. My husband wants to buy a hand gun and we need one of these first!

My husband would love one handed whisper quiet open! The one he has now is old and it is a combination lock AND code! It takes forever to get in his safe…I keep several hidden baseball bats in the house…just in case he can’t get in that safe 🙂
I like their line of Cash and Key boxes. I could really use one for things like our birth certificates, Social Security cards, passports, etc. I really like the DCB-1 Deluxe Safebox.
Thanks!

I like that I can pick this up at home depot…I know of several people I’d like to get this for as a holiday gift… I can always secure my house, but I have no idea what is going on next door, etc… I’d like to give this so I can feel better about my kids being at someone else’s house ..
I would love the SentrySafe Quick Access Pistol Safe to keep the gun away from the kids but easily accessible if we need it for an emergency
