GunVault Issues

A whir is not good. Broken cable? Alot of complaints on that. Good luck. I've talked to a few other owners with less than satisfactory customer service.

They should really recall these GunVaults.
 
The GunVault design has apparently changed? I am super impressed by their customer service and will report back.

Torontogunguy,

This is a thread w/pics on what sounds like the same problem you are having. Seems the design has been the same for several years as this post was in 2007. I have no idea what the failure rate of that part is or if it is still part of the current design. It does seem like that little cable would be a high wear item as it is twisted up on the shaft.

Thats just a poor design. It needs a straight pull instead of spinning the cable. Any engineer,mechanic or tech. could have told you that would break.

ANy one know if that circuit board behind it can be relocated?
 
I have the single basic and my batteries go dead in about a month. Duracell alkaline. Is this normal for do I need to call gun vault. I use it everyday because I CC.
 
When did you buy yours?
I have to state here and now, for the record, that GunVault customer service has improved like night and day. I am ecstatic and will report back with my results!

Why is everyone using Gunvaults if they suck? I have a Sentry Safe with a digital combination, its still on the original batteries, I've never had a problem. And I think they are a more reliable brand name.

Is the problem that you want the hand print button things instead of just numbers?

Because they are cheap, and people automatically assume that they are decent quality (even though they are cheap).

I wouldn't trust any sort of electronics for a self defense weapon. They simply aren't reliable enough to trust your life to.
