but got it off ebay, brand new for half the price, i only need something small, easy to keep out of site, also bolted down

I always wondered what is the point of having an electronic keypad and a manual override key? Kind of defeats the purpose of the keypad.

incase the electronic keypad runs out of battery or a fault develops, saves smashing it up to get into it

I bought one some years ago. Fireproof, waterproof, bolt it down and a reasonable size. Not cheap though, but it contains all our wills/insurances etc.

I went out and bought one after BIL broke in and stole from us. Didn't get the money back, but OH did break his nose....

If OH and I die together and Dad needs access to the wills and insurance stuff in it (he has the key and lives in another country)
