First Watch / Homak 8-Gun Double Door Security Cabinet, Black, HS30136028

Great for not only long guns but also good to store a lot of ammo metal boxes filled with ammo. Especially like double locks.

This product came just as shown. We have used it now for years and it is held up wonderfully. Nice sturdy product. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a safe place to keep things with not alot of space to put one ... holds my more than I expected.

At first, I was a little hesitant about buying this cabinet because of the reviews. But the price was good ($131.00 & free shipping) So I decided to get it. It came well packaged with extra cardboard on the corners (My big concern would be that it would be damaged in shipping) It was fully assembled which was nice considering some of the other cabinets you have to assemble. It is a very sturdy cabinet with a good size front door that seems to be made well. It also came with 4 keys (All the same)Mine did have an owner's manual included, but it wasn't too specific about how to put the accessories in place, so you just have to use common sense & measure your guns before you start to attach things. The biggest problem I noticed with all the reviews on all gun cabinets was the adhesive-backed foam that you have to put in place. For the bottom piece, I just left the backing on it & tucked it into place. For the back piece, I measured what I needed, cut it to size & then took a razor blade & ruler & scored the backing paper about 2 inches from the top edge. I then stuffed it into place & peeled off the part that I scored, & it worked great!The rack was 4 adhesive-backed plastic sections that could lock together (Probably for the wider cabinets) so you could place them at different height levels depending on the length of your guns. The little plastic cups that clip onto the inside of the front door are okay, but might get in the way when closing the door.The top shelf is a joke (Like the other reviewer said) but just held in place by 4 screws & nuts. I just took the shelf out, & measured & made my own shelf out of a small thin piece of plywood & some 1 inch "L" brackets. I mounted the brackets on the board to line up with the existing holes on the cabinet & it worked perfect! Now I have a full size shelf on top, instead of the dinky little one that they had.Also. You need to mount this cabinet to the wall because of the weight of the front door when you open it, or it might tip forwards on you. (The mounting screws are included with the cabinet)A couple of final notes. These cabinets are just for security, not safes. They're great for locking up your guns & providing basic security, for the price. If you want total theft prevention & can afford it, get a safe.Also, the capacity of these cabinets is deceptive. They will hold the number of guns they claim, provided they are your bare-basic gun, without any accessories. Make sure you buy a cabinet that is deep enough to hold your guns with scopes, & any other accessory. I was BARELY able to fit my 3 long guns into this cabinet (A .22 rifle, a 12 ga. shotgun, & my AR-15 rifle across the front) So if you have extra space for a cabinet, buy a bigger one!

This is my 3rd Homak Gun Cabinet so I have lots of experience with this brand. First thing you should ask yourself, are locks to keep honest people honest? Or should they keep bad guys out. If you are in the first camp, this is a great cabinet. It's perfect for keeping kids in the house safe without all the expense and weight of a real safe.You should know the 12 gun safe is a great 10 gun safe but a crappy 12 gun safe, unless you have only thin leverguns. I like to leave two holes between each barrel holder making 10 rifle fit perfect.The "12 gun" safe is good for rifles with scopes, pistol grips or large magazines. It is slower getting them in and out though. You need to be careful not to bang the cubbie sections or other guns when trying to remove guns from the back. The smaller cabinets lay the rifles along the back making getting them out much easier.When it comes to putting it together, there's a few things you should know. First, you'll want to make some spacers out of scrap wood if you have molding around your walls. If you aren't bolting to studs, use some good drywall anchors.Second, the foam it comes with is very big and hard to apply. It's cheap but does it's job well. PRO TIP! Cut the foam into smaller more manageable sections before you apply it. DO NOT try to stick on one giant piece. The adhesive is very unforgiving. You will screw it up. You have been warned!Third, the rails that come with it has VERY WEAK adhesive. It will not stick.PRO TIP! Apply a small bead of super glue to the rail backing. This sticks to the foam very well. It will be very sturdy if you use super glue. BONUS PRO TIP! If you have some branch clippers in the garage, use it to trim the rail. Measure twice, cut once. The branch cutters do a great job.Lastly, the small cubbie holes are 8"x9". They can hold two small handguns each. PRO TIP! If you have a lazy fat wife, steal her yoga mat. First make a template with paper then cut the yoga mat to size. They will sit in the cubbie holes very well, but if you feel the need apply super glue.These may not be perfect cabinets but for the price they are an excellent value.

Great safe! I love the amount of room provided. The left site is great for storing handguns, ammo, misc parts, etc. The right side is perfect for long guns. In my photo I did a crap job of putting up the foam and didn't bother with the gun rack plastic pieces. Though it did come with it.The size of the safe is excellent, it feels extremely sturdy, and the 4 locks (two per door) while a bit annoying does give you an added sense of security regardless of how false that sense is. I'm confident in using the safe to protect the weapons against small children. It's heavy enough that it won't be easily carried out of your home, does have holes and small bolts if you wish to mount it studs in the wall.You could easily fit 9 handguns on the left side, 3 per shelf. Maybe more. Long guns, I suspect you could fit 4. It's a great safe definitely worth the money. Well built. My last gun cabinet was thin metal (good enough for kids) but I broke the key in the lock, and had to break it open. I used a hammer, flat head, and bolt cutters to cut through the metal and it was fairly easy. This feels much thicker and since it uses the round keys, I feel as though breaking into this unit would be much more complicated.I would recommend this for anyone wishing to secure firearms from kids or average thieves. Obviously nothing but a true safe is foolproof, but this is close enough.
