Hollon TTW-2015E Through The Wall Drop Safe Review

Hollon has been one of the fastest growing safe companies in the United States over the last decade. They have a full product lineup ranging from residential to commercial. While they don’t actually manufacture anything themselves, they do bring in a lot of different high quality products. In this Hollon TTW-2015E Through The Wall Drop Safe Review, I will explain why it is one of the best drop safes in the industry.

Lock – Hollon TTW-2015E Through The Wall Drop Safe

First and always most important for any safe is its lock. Hollon offers three lock options depending on your preference.

UL Listed Dual Key Lock

Included in the price is a UL listed dual key lock. This is a high quality key lock and pick resistant. When it comes to depository safes, I always recommend going with an electronic lock. Drop safes are accessed very frequently, often multiple times a day, so requiring a combination or keys can become tedious whereas an electronic lock just requires the 6 digit code.

UL Approved High Security Mechanical Lock – S&G

Second, Hollon offers the classic S&G Type 2 UL Approved high security Mechanical Lock. S&G is the oldest and most reputable lock company in the United States. This three number combination lock is built to last forever and is known for its longevity and reliability.

UL Approved High Security Electronic Lock – S&G

The final lock option is is the S&G UL approved high security electronic lock. This is an excellent quality lock made by a longstanding and reputable company. S&G has a premier reputation and makes very high quality locks. UL Approved type 1 is the highest security rating available. Finally, this lock features one user code and over 1 million possible combinations.

Hard Plate and Re-Locker

All three lock options are also protected by both a hard plate and internal spring-loaded re-locker. The Hard plate is a piece of hardened steel that absolutely destroys drill bits. The internal re-locker fires if the lock is punched through securing the bolts in place. Both of these are essential security features and included on this safe.

Security – Hollon TTW-2015E Through The Wall Drop Safe

The Hollon TTW-2015E Through The Wall Drop Safe is equipped with a massive 1/2″ thick solid steel door. Hollon then adds three 1.2″ solid steel locking bolts covering the door along with a full steel dead bar on the hinge side that locks behind the external hinges. The body is constructed of high tensile 1/4″ steel certifying this depository safe as B-Rate construction. All in all, the body thickness is nearly double the thickness of all competitors and is a substantial amount of steel.

Style and Function – Hollon TTW-2015E Through The Wall Drop Safe

Hollon Drop Safes are finished in a textured blue gray. Hardware includes both a chrome L Shaped Drop Down handle and black dial or chrome keypad along with chrome fascia plate. Finally, the interior is all metal and includes a carpeted bottom.

Overall, drop safes are not meant for overnight storage and should be emptied each day with the deposit being taken to the bank.

This drop safe is unique from the traditional front load style and uses a chute that is designed to be installed into a wall. After placing items into the chute, it slides down and lands into the main compartment which is accessible from the safe door. This application is great for companies requiring drops from customers to a secure office.

Warranty

All Hollon Drop Safes are covered by a 1 year parts and labor warranty on the lock and all other components. Hollon will pay for a safe technician or locksmith to come out to your home or business and repair the safe. If the safe needs to be replaced, they pay for all shipping costs and do not require you to ship the safe back to their warehouse.

The Bottom Line
