Large Digital Security Home Safe – Tigerking BGX-D1-58JJH

BASIC OVERVIEW

This Tiger king BGX-D1-58JJH home security safe is the large version of this particular model. The small one has a capacity of 1.4 cubic feet and this one offers 2.05 cubic feet. Just by comparing the two you can see this one is just as wide but it is also taller.

It has similar features to its little brother with a few additional extras. Even though this can be considered a mid to high-end home safe I am impressed by the amount of useful features offered for a “not so expensive” safe.

This Tigerking safe has pretty much everything you need including a digital keypad, multiple locking mechanisms, a nice looking interior and exterior design, a secret compartment and a lot more.

Unfortunately, Tigerking didn’t go the extra mile to make this BGX-D1-58JJH fireproof and waterproof but I guess they had to keep to a specific price point. Adding those extras would have certainly raised the price.

So let’s look at some of the features this home safe offers.

This large Tigerking home safe provides a high level of anti-theft function as well as giving you plenty of interior space for storing your valuables.

The construction is very sturdy and made with durable thick solid steel making it hard for any burglar to try to break their way into it using tools.

There are thicker safes out there; however at this price range I would say this is one of the strongest in terms of thick outer casings for long lasting and reliable protection.

High security is where this safe shines as it is obvious that the designers made that a top priority. There are a total of 6 live-locking bolts and what makes this safe stand out from the rest, regarding high security, is that there is 3 sided bolt actions.

So there is a locking bolt at the top part of the door, the bottom part of the door and four live-locking bolts in the opening side of the door. This means prying this door open will be virtually impossible due to the fact that it is bolted in on three sides. Amazing physical protection from forced entry.

This Tigerking home safe also has a digital locking mechanism with additional manual override.

What this means is that you can programme your own digital combination in order to gain entry to the safe super-fast.

If, for whatever reason, you have trouble getting into the safe you can use the emergency override key. That is a very handy option if you forget your personal entry code.

If you want additional protection you have the option to use the secondary master key lock. This adds an extra layer of safety for your stored valuables because it will prevent entry by someone who has your personal code or your emergency key. With the Master Key only YOU will be able to gain access to the safe. Basically, you can deactivate the pin if somebody finds out what it is and use the master key instead.

To add to the security measures, this BGX-D1-58JJH digital safe has an alarm system that will go off if there are three- incorrect code entries. To stop the alarm just enter the correct code.

The interior is what you expect from a Tigerking safe. It is very spacious and well designed. There is a removable shelf that you can use to keep your smaller items organized.

It has a protective liner on it; however people have stated that the liner does eventually peel. Not a big issue especially seeing as you can add your own liner to the shelving.

The ability to remove the shelf means that you make more room for larger items. So if you are someone who prefers to stack items you can do so while using the majority of the space inside.

If you have smaller items that you want to secure even more then you can put them inside the top locking compartment which acts as a mini safe within a safe. This interior locking box will allow you to store things like keys, cash, jewelry, important papers and more.

At around 60 pounds in weight this is a fairly heavy home safe. The positive to this is that it is heavy enough so it would be hard for a burglar to carry out.

Overall, this is a really good, strong safe for its price range and should provide enough security for the average home user. It is a large safe so you need to make sure you have the room for it because it will not easily be hidden in the average sized closet.
