    Barska top opening biometric safe question

    If anyone owns a Barska top opening biometric drawer safe, can you tell me if it will fit in a space 6 inches tall?
    The advertised height is 5 inches but I don't know if that number includes the finger scanner on top. Thanks!

    Not sure about the Barska but I am Not happy with the biometric I bought.
    Sometimes it takes forever to open! Very glad I have not needed it in a real emergency!
    I will try to dig up what brand it is.

    I have the Barksa rifle safe with biometric. I scanned the same finger in a few times and then scanned in a couple of other fingers, also a few times each just in case I've got a new cut or or other skin damage. The lock works 100% of the time for me and still keeps out unregistered finger prints.
    The reason I originally posted is because I'm thinking of the same brand for under the bed so I'm limited on height. Barksa safes aren't real heavy duty, I'm just interested in keeping the grandson out.

    The only name I see on my little one is imprint.
    It always opens but sometimes it takes a looooooong time to do so, we have found that it prefers the last finger that opened it in order to open quickly even though they say it "works" with multiple prints.

    This doesn't help with your dimension question but...I've got two front opening Barskas and they work great. I have yet to change the battery on either and hope the ROM works as it should.
    You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig.
