## Description

The SentrySafe SFW205GQC Fireproof Safe and Waterproof Safe offers ETL Verified water protection and UL Classified fire protection for your important documents, digital media, and other valuables. This safe is also equipped to protect from unwanted access, with solid steel construction and a pry-resistant hinge bar.

Dual key gives safe owners the ability to disable the primary lock, even if other people know the combination or access code. The SentrySafe SFW205GQC protects your important documents, digital media, and other valuables from fire, water, and theft. Dual digital lock with key, solid steel construction, pry-resistant hinge bar, and live locking bolts keep your items secure in the event of a break-in. The tall safe also offers ETL Verified water protection and UL Classified fire protection for your irreplaceable items. For optimal performance, SentrySafe recommends the use of four high-quality, name-brand alkaline AAA batteries with an expiration date of 8-10 years from the current year. Generic and rechargeable batteries often do not have the lifespan needed to support long-term usage.

Review: Perfect for what we need - Why did you pick this product vs others?: the reviews that I read all said it was the best in my price range for home security Security: I like that the key overrides the combination. I had read that there are ways to defeat the combinationlock with a magnet but if that is true, the key will prevent that. Design: In spite of some reviews, my safe came p[ackaged secury with no dents or scratches. It was heavy to put in position,but the quality and ease of use is impressive. Value for money: I had a cheaper safe and thought it was secure. After my home was broken into I found out how easy it was to use a crowbar ( which the thieves found in my garage) and pry the side with the bolts out and the door [popped open. Unless I am missing something here, this is not going to happen with this safe. Works well: Simple to understand programming the combination. Thickness: As I said, this thing is heavy and if you hit it on the side, it sounds solid. I don't usually write reviews but in this case I wanted others to know what a great product this is. I am very happy with this purchase and recommend this safe very highly. No negatives to report.
Review: Just what I need for storage security - Still setting up but seemingly easy to do so. Perfect size for me as I mostly store papers, lighted inside, manufacture's initial entry code last forever while 2 other codes can be personalized and any of the three can be used; note that using the floor screws invalidates the waterproof warranty. Appears to be very high quality.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: The issuse with opening the safe with a magnet has been resolved right?so, how do i know that i recieved one that has been modified to fix this issue?**
A: I don't know either about opening with a magnet.  Sentry Safe is NOT very open with information.  Also they do NOT full fill their warranty.  I got a safe with defective electronics that kills the batteries very quickly and will not open.  I have replaced the batteries many times in seven months and even used batteries with 10 year exploration and they still die.  Sentry Safe will not comply with the warranty on the box.  They are very frustrating to call and deal with.  Sorry I don't know about the magnet problem, they won't answer.

**Q: Does this offering include the interior locking drawer in the $229.99 price?   It is included in the iItem Description & in photos.**
A: I will never know because they locked the keys inside and shipped it to me with dead batteries.   I have no way of opening it.  The instructions say in order to open it for the first time, we need to remove the shipping screw, located on the INSIDE.   If you got yours open, I'm happy for you.   Because they STOLE my money and sent me a worthless heavy junk box.

**Q: What are the inside dimensions?**
A: what are the exact interior dimensions of this safe?

**Q: What are the OUTSIDE size measurements of this safe? Thank you!**
A: So is it 18 5/8W x 17 1/4D x 23 3/4H or 19.3 x 18.6 x 23.8 inches?  Two different answers were given.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The handle is SUPPOSED to be somewhat flimsy!!
*by B***R on January 26, 2026*

Growing up my dad had a Sentry safe. Now I understand why, this safe while it is a budget safe easily is worth the money. So first thing to address is the design. People have complained the handle feels cheap. That is only half of the story, it’s SUPPOSED TO BE!!! If you look at the photo I put the manual states this. Reason being if someone tries to force there way inside the safe will not allow it. This is exactly what you want in a deterrent! Anything to slow down a thief including the safe purposefully destroying itself. As long as you remain clam and patient the safe will open. You just have to remember that IF you man handle it, the safe WILL punish you. As it believes you’re a thief, I brought this for my Tiffany Jewelry and large sums of cash handling. And it is worth the investment I am actually glad people complained because $286 for the amount of features you get is a steal. The lock isn’t what you think! This safe is two factor authentication!! If I turn the lock to “locked” the safe WILL NOT OPEN even if you have the code. And if “unlocked” all you need is the code. The keys alone will not open it. This is exactly what you want in a safe. Now it’s unpickable and much harder to open. All that being said a safe is a safe it can be forced open. However with this particular model I sure as hell wouldn’t want to be the thief trying. Let me tel you this safe would suck to force open. With bolts are huge and the door is so thick I couldn’t imagine it taking anything less then 2-3 hours to force your way into. If your debating on buying think about it as one, an investment and two something built to last. The inside lock box is somewhat cheap however when it’s locked it will NOT come out of the safe. So I would have to use a hammer to beat it out after spending hours trying to force it open as a thief. 100% worth every penny I just can’t believe it was only the price it was. Feels illegal for the security that you get. If your safe arrives damaged just return and get a new one. Mine came in fine. One small dent but it’s where you would drill for mounting so it doesn’t bother me. The 90LBs too means it’s hard to rob I couldn’t see anyone picking it up and walking away quickly or easily. So with that here is my final piece of advice- remember to be patient and go slow the safe is designed to work against you if you panic and try to force your way in. If the handle doesnt turn be patient. DO NOT TRY TO FORCE IT. The safe will punish you my mechanically disengaging the handle you will hear a click and it will disengage the bolts. This is EXACTLY what it’s SUPPOSED to do. I almost did this to myself when the key wasn’t opening the safe because I failed to read the manual. Don’t let this happen to you. Be patient read the manual and use your factory code always. Never try to force this safe open it will lock you out indefinitely and force you to either wait or get a lock smith. This safe is designed to take a few minutes to open. This also massively increases security. It’s up to you and your needs when it comes to security. But I made the mistake of buying a Vevor safe that was about trash the door was crooked and the safe had rust and was easily lighter. While you can get larger cheap safes for the same if not less money. There is something to be said about quality and spending damn good money on security. I do not think Sentry is the end all be all. We’ve all seen those YouTube videos were a guy opens one up in 60 seconds when it’s a simple lock box. But with this model’s features I’d love to see someone try to open it without the code.
