The Space Safe: Price, Features, Data, and Evidence

The Space Safe

The Space Safe is a connected physical safe with cameras, a touchscreen, PIN and fingerprint access, sensors, an app, and over-the-air software updates.

As of July 27, 2026, the official product page lists a price of $1,299 and presents the product as a preorder. It displays December 2026 for the United States and January 2027 for Europe, with another October 2027 option.

The diagram describes the public product system. It is not an independent architecture audit or security rating.

Published specifications

The product page describes a ten-inch display, two HD cameras, a fingerprint sensor, accelerometer tamper sensors, temperature and humidity sensors, WiFi on 2.4 and 5 GHz bands, a speaker and microphone, USB ports, lighting, and a 10,000 mAh backup battery.

The page gives a roughly 55-pound weight in one section and roughly 60 pounds in a comparison table. It lists 180 fingerprints in its technology section and 100 in a later product answer. Confirm the final specification for the exact production unit.

The page says the enclosure uses a double steel wall described as 9 gauge, with a 4 mm box and 5 mm door. These are manufacturer specifications. They are not a substitute for a current independent burglary listing.

Access and fallback

The product page describes multiple users, PINs, fingerprints, temporary five-minute access codes, optional two-factor authentication, lockdown after failed attempts or movement, and mechanical keys.

It says use of the backup key generates a notification. It also says WiFi is optional unless the user wants notifications and all smart features.

Before relying on the system, verify which functions remain local during internet loss, cloud outage, app removal, vendor failure, and a fully depleted battery. Confirm how a key event is recorded when the device lacks power or connectivity.

Cameras, activity, and privacy

The Space App page describes live interior and exterior views, successful and unsuccessful access history, shared access, temporary PINs, lockdown, and environmental readings.

SPACE's March 2023 privacy policy says the service may process voice, video, photos, safe location, opening and closing events, users, movement, updates, screen activity, settings, PIN attempts, uploaded images, phone numbers, and connected mobile devices. It says recordings may be kept locally and in the cloud.

The policy contains broader wallet, transaction, and blockchain language. Ask for a current product-specific data-flow and retention description. Do not infer the exact shipping architecture from one broad policy.

Power and update behavior

The product page says the safe uses external USB-C power and a hidden rechargeable battery during an outage. Its footnote says the battery lasts a few hours and that the company is working to improve longevity.

SPACE's January 2026 OTA update says its updater requires WiFi and external power before proceeding. The company reports repeated successful internal tests and says printed circuit board assembly testing continued.

The public material does not fully document update signing, staged rollout, rollback protection, recovery, vulnerability reporting, or the supported lifetime. Buyers should request those details.

FCC authorization and physical ratings

The public manual is available through the product's FCC record under FCC ID 2BEAZ-TSS1. Related reports address the radio equipment.

FCC authorization is not a burglary rating, fire rating, cybersecurity label, biometric-performance certificate, emergency-service approval, or firearm-storage determination.

UL Solutions identifies UL 687 as a standard for burglary-resistant safes and describes separate treatment for residential security containers. Venture Step did not locate a current burglary or fire listing tied to The Space Safe during the July 27, 2026 review.

Ask SPACE for the exact standard, class, model, listing identifier, test body, and current record if a rated property is material.

Emergency feature boundary

The product and app pages describe sending an emergency text from the app. They also say the function is still being tested nationally and that the user has responsibility.

The company's terms say text 911 and panic PIN features are not monitored. 911.gov says calling is best when possible and text-to-911 availability varies.

Do not rely on the product as a monitored alarm or guaranteed dispatch route unless a separate current service agreement proves that workflow.

Delivery and company dependence

SPACE's March 2025 update discusses manufacturing-partner challenges, financial losses, capital needs, pricing, and production uncertainty.

A preorder buyer is exposed to delivery risk and long-term service risk. Review cancellation, refund, warranty, repair, replacement parts, app availability, cloud operation, final firmware, data export, and product behavior if the company or a provider stops support.
