Frequently Asked Questions
What type of batteries does the Hollon HS-500E require?
The electronic keypad is powered by four external AA batteries (not included; Duracell recommended). The battery compartment is accessed externally on the face of the lock, allowing for fast battery replacement without needing emergency lock override tools.
What is the difference between the Hollon HS-500E and HS-500D?
Both safes share identical 2-hour 1850°F fire ratings, outer dimensions (19 3/4" H x 13 3/4" W x 16 3/4" D), weight (121 lbs), and interior storage volume (0.94 cu. ft.). The HS-500E features a digital electronic keypad lock for fast PIN entry, whereas the HS-500D features a mechanical combination dial lock with a secondary key day-lock.
Is the Hollon HS-500E water and smoke resistant?
Yes. The HS-500E features a specialized grooved door design that forms a seal to protect internal contents against water intrusion and smoke damage during firefighting efforts.
Does this safe include mounting hardware?
Yes. The safe comes with one pre-drilled anchor hole located in the base and includes heavy-duty concrete mounting bolts for secure installation.
How does the 1850°F fire rating compare to standard fire safes?
Most standard residential fire safes carry a 1-hour rating up to 1700°F or 1750°F. The Hollon HS-500E doubles that thermal duration to 120 minutes while withstanding temperatures up to 1850°F, keeping internal vault conditions safe for critical paper documents.
