Paragon Safees (Paragon Safes) Wall Safe with Electronic Keypad and 2 Manual Override Keys - Protect Your Money, Jewelry, Passport in Home or Business (Gray)

This is my second wall safe and I'm very happy with this one after making some adjustments. Comparing to the Stack-On PWS 15522, this one is cheaper but may be a bit more solid. It uses 6 bolts into the studs instead of 4. However, the Stack-On allowed me to turn off the button beeping without modifying it. I also found the Stack-On to have sturdier shelves. As for the Paragon 7725, the first thing to note is after unboxing, I tried the key with the safe flat on my table, the safe door facing up. The key didn't work until it was tipped upright. I almost thought I had a problem since I had read a review about the key not working. Installation was as expected. It fit easily between the studs which were just slightly wider than the safe width. I added a piece of 2x4 at the bottom to help with installation. I use a Kreg Mini Jig Pocket Hole Kit to attach to the studs on either side. The door had a little play to it which I found irritating when hitting the keypad if I didn't hold the door closed so I added a piece of 1/4" weather stripping to the inside of the door jamb, lengthwise. (photo attached) As many have noted, the beeping is too loud for my purposes. I didn't want to use a solder gun on the circuit board. Instead, I removed the cover to the circuit board and used a small screwdriver to carefully pop off the cover to the speaker (photo attached). Under the cap was a small metal piece which amplified the beep. With that removed, it made a very muted, barely audible beep when pushing the keypad buttons. This was perfect for me, although I realized I was proceeding at my own risk. Please proceed at your own risk if you attempt the same. Overall, great product for protecting a few small items out of sight.

It's great. Easy to install, only took a few minutes. Works amazing. Super cheap.

Perfect, thank you very much

Excelente caja fuerte. Precio insuperable. Calidad buenísima. Difícil de instalar ya que lo hice en muro de ladrillo y fue un gran trabajo hacer el agujero para ensamblarla. Pero una vez hecho quedó súper oculta, resistente y además le coloqué tornillos de muro a muro así que imposible de arrancarla. El único detalle es que no se puede desactivar el ruido al oprimir cada tecla de la clave y puede escucharlo gente cerca. Además se abre con llave así que no hay riesgo de pérdida de clave. El espacio interior suficiente para una caja de este tipo. Realmente es una buena caja de seguridad anti ladrones. Aunque la llegaran a encontrar tardarían horas en arrancarla al menos que llevaran picos y palas para hacerlo. La clave es que no la encuentren. Y con un cuadro encima no lo harán. Es fácil para abrirla diario si uno desea. Caben perfecto relojes, llaves de coches, dinero, monedas, joyas, facturas vehiculares (dobladas) y demás. Está pesada pero es prueba de su resistencia. La puede instalar uno solo (yo lo hice). Por tan poco dinero no entiendo por qué la gente sigue arriesgando esconder sus valores en lugares simples y vulnerables.

Just finished installing this wall safe. A few comments on the installation. There are no installation instructions but it's all common sense and there's a few You Tube videos out there to show you what to do. The safe itself fits exactly between two studs. IMO - Having a good stud finder made all the difference. I purchased a JAXWQ stud finder on Amazon and it worked great. Also, I added a 2X4 on the bottom for the safe to sit on while installing the screws into the studs. Use a level to make sure everything is straight. The safe is no frills but solid. Installing the batteries and passcodes was easy. So overall, there were no surprises on install which I appreciate. You really can't go wrong with this safe for the price point.
