- Is the Night Guard worth it over a plain keypad safe?
- If you want to open the safe by touch in the dark, the RFID tag is the main draw and is faster than typing a code. A basic keypad safe costs less but gives up that speed and the alarm.
- Will a full-size pistol with a light fit?
- The drawer is about 2.2 inches tall, 9.2 inches deep and 6.9 inches wide. A full-size pistol usually fits, but a mounted weapon light or red dot may not clear the lid.
- How is it powered?
- It runs on batteries, and the RFID reader, keypad and alarm all draw from them. Check the battery level regularly, since a dead battery means falling back to the key.
- What comes in the box?
- The safe, an RFID watchband, an RFID key fob, an RFID decal and a backup key. Mounting hardware is included for bolting it down.
- Is it child resistant?
- Yes. It is certified child resistant and California DOJ approved, though the keypad code and RFID tags should still be kept away from children.
- When is it cheapest?
- The $216.95 at Amazon as of November 4, 2026 is already near the bottom of its recent range. Watch for holiday sales, when it has dipped lower.
