Tiskgg White 29.53" Tall Fireproof Wall Safes Between the Studs 16" Centers, Heavy Duty Combination Lock in Wall Safe with 3 Removable Shelf, Hidden Safe for Money, Jewelry, Document, Passport

First impressions and install

I cut a rectangle out of my hallway drywall, slid the Tiskgg wall safe between the studs, and had it anchored and powered up in under an hour. That pretty much captures the appeal here: this is a flush-mount safe sized to fit standard 16-inch-on-center studs, with enough height (about 30 inches) to make the interior genuinely useful for passports, documents, small valuables, and a compact handgun, yet shallow enough to disappear into a stud bay. It’s a practical mix of concealment and convenience.

The exterior is a clean matte white that blends well with painted walls and disappears completely behind a framed print. The face flange sits flush against the drywall, and the door closes true without rubbing. Construction-wise, the steel feels thicker and stiffer than the flimsy lock boxes you see at big-box stores; the door doesn’t oil-can when pressed and the frame has minimal flex. Two motorized deadbolts engage into the frame, and the turn knob has a reassuringly solid feel once the bolts retract.

The lock and day-to-day use

Access is via an electronic combination and a turn knob, with a mechanical key override hidden behind a small badge on the door. Out of the box, you open it with the keys, set your code, and you’re off. Programming took me a couple of tries to memorize the sequence, but once set, the keypad has been reliable. The motorized bolts cycle briskly; you turn the knob to open and close after the code is accepted. Keep the override keys in a separate, genuinely secure place, because the battery compartment is inside the door—as it should be for security—so the keys are your way in if the batteries die.

The lock housing does protrude into the interior space, so plan shelf placement around it. It doesn’t ruin the capacity, but it makes the center area shallower. That’s a reasonable trade-off for the motorized bolts and electronic convenience.

Interior layout and the hidden compartment

Inside, the footprint is tall and narrow with a shallow depth, consistent with in-wall construction. Three removable shelves let you configure the space for passports, envelopes of cash, jewelry boxes, and small electronics. Letter-sized documents fit fine when placed flat or in slim folders. Bulky binders won’t. Key hooks on the inside of the door are handy; I used them for spare car keys and a couple of USB drives.

A nice touch is the false bottom panel. Press and lift, and you get a thin hidden compartment perfect for flat items—a few bills, a spare key, a micro SD card, or a small piece of jewelry. It’s not a bank vault, but it adds an extra layer of discretion inside a concealed safe, which I appreciate.

Installation experience

If you’re comfortable with a stud finder and a drywall saw, installation is straightforward. I measured the safe’s flange and body depth, traced a cutline on the wall between two studs, and opened the cavity carefully. Because residential framing isn’t always textbook, check spacing—16-inch on center typically leaves 14.5 inches between studs. The safe’s width is designed for that, but if your studs aren’t perfectly parallel you might need a shim; I added a thin plywood spacer on one side to get a snug fit.

A few practical tips from my install:
- Verify there are no wires or plumbing in the bay you’re cutting into. A small inspection hole and a flashlight save headaches.
- Remove the shelves before mounting. It gives you clear access to the mounting holes.
- Pre-drill pilot holes into the studs. The included hardware grabs better and you reduce the risk of splitting older studs.
- Use all the mounting points you can. The more secure the anchoring, the harder it is to pry or wiggle the safe out of the wall.

Once anchored, the face sits flush, and a picture frame hides it completely. If you’re recessing it in a closet, paint the flange to match the wall and it visually disappears.

Security posture: what it is and isn’t

Wall safes like this are less about defeating a determined, well-equipped thief and more about stopping grab-and-go theft, keeping valuables away from kids, and adding real friction to opportunistic attempts. Anchoring into studs removes the “carry it off” risk that plagues small portable safes. The two motorized deadbolts and steel door resist casual prying and quick attacks with hand tools. For a typical home threat model, the combination of concealment and sturdy construction is effective.

There are realities to acknowledge. The safe’s depth is constrained by the stud bay, so you don’t get the mass or insulation found in floor-standing safes. If you need certified burglary resistance (think TL-15/30) or you expect power-tool attacks, this category isn’t the right tool. Used as intended—hidden behind artwork or inside a closet—this safe adds a meaningful layer of security and convenience for common household needs.

About the “fireproof” question

The product literature uses the word “fireproof,” but there’s no stated fire rating and no visible fire insulation or intumescent door seal. In practice, I would not treat this as a fire-rated safe for documents or data. In-wall placement surrounded by gypsum board can offer some incidental heat resistance, but that’s not the same as a rated 30/60/90-minute fire safe designed to keep internal temperatures below critical thresholds. If fire protection is a priority, pair this with a rated document safe or store critical papers off-site.

Living with it

Daily use has been uneventful in the best way. The keypad wakes up, accepts the code, and the bolts throw consistently. The door sits square and shuts without slamming. The white powder coat has held up; it resists fingerprints and wipes clean. I did notice a small shipping scuff on the door edge on mine—cosmetic and irrelevant once hidden—but it’s worth inspecting your unit on arrival.

Capacity-wise, it’s a good organizer for the little-but-important stuff: passports, Social Security cards, spare keys, a few pieces of jewelry, emergency cash, and slim documents. With the shelves removed, I could store a compact pistol and a couple of magazines in a lockbox inside for an extra layer of safety, though check your local laws and best practices for firearm storage.

Battery changes are simple—open the door, swap cells—so as long as you keep the override keys safe, you won’t get locked out. I set a calendar reminder to replace batteries annually.

Who it’s for

• Homeowners and renters (with landlord approval) who want a low-profile, concealed safe for everyday valuables.
• Parents who need secure storage out of children’s reach with quick access.
• Anyone who values the combination of flush-mount concealment and an electronic lock but doesn’t need a high-capacity or high-security floor safe.

It’s less ideal if you need certified fire protection, lots of depth for bulky items, or hardened resistance against power tools.

Pros

• Clean, flush-mount design that truly fits 16-inch-on-center studs
• Sturdy steel construction with dual motorized deadbolts
• Flexible interior with three removable shelves and key hooks
• Hidden “false bottom” compartment adds discreet storage
• Electronic keypad with mechanical key override
• Straightforward DIY installation with included hardware

Cons

• No stated fire rating; not a substitute for a fire-rated safe
• Interior depth is naturally limited; center area is shallower near the lock housing
• Fit can require shimming in imperfect stud bays
• Instructions for code setup could be clearer for first-time users

Recommendation

I recommend the Tiskgg wall safe for homeowners who want a well-built, concealed in-wall option for everyday valuables and documents. It installs cleanly, anchors solidly into studs, and offers a thoughtful interior layout with a useful hidden compartment. The electronic lock and dual deadbolts strike a good balance between convenience and security for common household scenarios. Just go in with clear expectations: this is not a fire-rated safe, and it’s not intended to resist prolonged, tool-based attacks. Used as a concealed, quick-access storage solution, it represents strong value and a practical upgrade over flimsy lockboxes or desk drawers.
