Lousy customer service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Lost keys to two Gunvaults during a NY to FL move; replacement offered for $20 each.
  • - Only one key sent; it didn't work; refund; I had to drill boxes.

Lost keys to my 2 small Gunvaults during a move from NY to FL. Gunvault said they could replace them for $20.00 each.

Ok fine. Take pictures of the entire box, not just the key numbers engraved on the lock. Then find a notary to get their form stating that you are the owner of said product. Send it in.

Wait. Then they send only one of two keys and it doesn't work. Neither does the second one of a different number that they don't send the first time. All form letters in response.

Then they just refund the money and I have to drill the boxes. Worst customer service EVER!

Pros:
  • Good product if non battery powered
Cons:
  • Lousy customer service

Preferred solution: Apology

User's recommendation: Don’t

The number on this site does not go to gun vault. The other numbers have not been tried because it is Sunday.

Original review updated Oct 09, 2023

I bought a Gunvault safe from Menard's. It lasted less than a year when the door jammed.

Clearly a defective product. It was technically just out of warranty but they agreed to send me a replacement. Unfortunately, they sent me a smaller, cheaper model and they refuse to send me the same size as the one I purchased.

I have also reached out to Menard's to help me but so far no response. I would consider purchasing from other companies that back their products properly.

Their customer service department doesn't exist

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Contacted GunVault several times with no reply about the issue.
  • - Battery lasts under four weeks; unit dies unused, suggesting faulty electronics.

I've reached out to GunVault several times now and have yet to get a reply about an issue I'm having with my safe. It must have faulty electronics as the batter doesn't even last 4 weeks before the unit dies and that's without ever touching the unit during that timeframe.

Loss:
$450
Pros:
  • Most of their products are good
Cons:
  • Tacvault is horrible

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Most of their products are good, but their customer service sucks.

Tried to reach customer service.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Every number is disconnected making it literally impossible to get in touch with someone. It asked for you number and email but no one gets back with you. Looks like gun vault is dead in the water.

Technical assistance

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Contacted the company first

The reviewer tried to contact the company before posting this review.

AI Highlights
  • - The safe faulted after about two years and reset attempts failed.
  • - CS advised using the key and said safes made in China are unreliable, not used daily.

SVB 500-my wife bought this Gunvault biometric safe in 2014 or so. It worked OK for a while, but started to fault two years ago.

So I followed the instructions to try to reset it and re-enter my fingerprints but it would not reset. So I called CS to ask for assistance. The lady there basically said use the key. Several times she said these safes are made in China ie.-they are junk and not reliable.

She said that if they arent used every day they fault and will stop working.

Really Gunvault? You blame your reliability problems on where you have these safes manufactured

Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution

User's recommendation: Do not buy anything from Gunvault. They make junk and do not stand behind their products

Buttons do not work

AI Highlights
  • - Told I was out of warranty and would get an email.
  • - I did not receive the promised email.
  • - Cannon Security Products emailed about customer service.

Received a call from service telling me I was out of warranty but I would receive an email so I could state my case. I did not receive the email.

I did receive an email from Cannon Security Products asking how my experience was with their customer service. I answered that I had not received the promised email. Have not had a response from them as yet.

Still want them to follow through. If you can help I would appreciate it

User's recommendation: So far so good

Product reeks, company refuses to help

AI Highlights
  • - Foam in NV100 safe has a mothball-like odor that persists.
  • - Manufacturer refused replacement after receipt and customer service was not helpful.

I recently purchased a GunSafe brand NV100 gun safe. As other reviewers on different sites have indicated, the foam in this safe reeks to high heaven of naphthalene (AKA mothballs).

I tried the Febreeze trick and leaving it in the sun, and two weeks later it still reeks. I purchased this item at a local retailer new, and thinking that the issue was a batch problem I decided to contact the manufacturer rather than return it to the retailer only to have the same problem. Upon speaking with a Tony Hernandez (who seems to be the only employee working the phones or the email system) he assured me that all I needed to do was email a copy of my receipt and he would send me a new safe. A week after I emailed the receipt I received a reply stating that the smell was not a defect and he could not replace the safe.

When I mentioned that the vapors could be hazardous and all I needed was new foam the response was "There is no way of knowing if that safe was new or preened (sic)..You need to understand that every company has policies and that you didn't purchased this from us. So there is no way we can help you out with that issue." Seems like the company policy is to not assist the customer in any way.

I will never purchase a product made by this company again, they have terrible customer service and don't care about the customer after they have your money. Otherwise the safe does as advertised, and if they can get the foam issue straightened out they will have a great little safe.
