VaultzLocking Clipboard with Storage - Heavy Duty Metal Clip Board Box Holds 8.5" x 11" Letter-Size Paper or Tablet Device - Key Lock, Floral Pink

Thr front is cardboard, not metal. The back is metal. It's built fairly well, but the front dings easily. If someone were to out a piece of paper on the front and write on llit, the writing would leave an imprint.

I am sad, the last Vaultz board I had just like this lasted over 5 years. Within 2 weeks the coating on the top was falling off, now earlier this week the buckle at where it locks fell off, i tried to fix it but it did not work! I am upset. How long should this last without breaking? Just over one month is too short. I put duct tape on it to fix the front and back but the buckle is beyond fixing...I think it need to go to a range for target practice!! And since I cannot find any link to complain about this will do.

works well as a lap-desk but has really cheaply made strap holding bolts and clasps. I work as a casemanager in the community and I am always driving to peoples home and getting paperwork signed. I need to protect my documents so I keep them in a locked box. This works well as a standalone solution for having a briefcase and a clipboard as it is obviously advertised, but it is also serves as a stable surface to organize paperwork and bear down on when it is open. It holds a large amount of paperwork and the mesh pockets are the perfect size for cards, paperclips and pamplets. The main drawback of this document holder is the strap and the clasps. They are cheaply made and weak and have broken on me multiple times. the bolts that hold the clasp bars are easily worn out and warped and then they pull out at unexpected times. The clasps on the strap break as they are small and cheaply made. I advise anyone who decides on this solution to change the strap to something else with better clasps and when the bolts pull out picture frame hanging wire works well as a replacement. overall I dont regret this purchase but it is a design that is executed with flaws.

Love the pattern, I got the B&W polka dots. Was worried it’d be too heavy but honestly it’s lighter than my old plastic one, which I’ve had for probably 15 years of being a night RN. That one has fallen off desks & carts too often though & is finally cracking. I hope this one lasts. I like the clasp/lock but hope it holds up. The interior is lovely, lined, with actual pockets for pens & scissors. Looks like it’ll hold my large stethoscope too. However, my OCD is going to take a real hit when I can’t write neatly since the surface is NOT SMOOTH!! Wth?? Who wants a textured desk top?? This is gonna drive me insane but I gotta keep it because all the others I’ve seen are too slim >:/

I'll start out by saying that many negative reviews are half correct and half misrepresented. I say this because many people believe they are buying a assa locking safe and clipboard. To start this review I will list the negative qualities first. Keep in mind I am still giving this product 4 stars. This is not secure. This is not made of solid metal. The lock will keep kids out and anyone who doesn't have the slightest idea of how a lock functions internally. It can be picked open in under a second. It can be brute forced open in a quarter of a second by a toddler wielding a plastic butter knife. This is a very thin MDF-like presswood with a laminated "for looks" sheet on the outside and a fabric material (without padding) applied internally with spray adhesive. The edge banding is constructed using a high gauge (thin) anodized or powder-coated aluminum or malleable non-hardened cheap steel. All metal (banding, hinges, locks, clip, and hanger reinforcement) is fastened using rivets (the "for looks" kind not the "for durability" kind). This is not designed to take a beating daily. I knew this from the product photos before my purchase. The one thing that I am entirely disappointed in is the texture. You will not get a smooth writing surface as the camo laminate is textured. To demonstrate this undesirable trait I placed a blank lightweight thermal receipt paper on clip and tested different writing utensils (see attached photo). Luckily I almost exclusively use gel pens and heavyweight paper so this is not an problem. An issue arises when attempting to affix a label to the surface of the clipboard (standard labelmaker print) because the surface texture inhibits the hermetic adhesion (see attached photo). The rubber bumpers are slipped on to the steel clip. This is an undesirable trait as they can become dislodged when attempting to affix a pen or any upsetting lateral or horizontal pressure is applied. Upon unboxing they were loose in the packaging. However, I have only had one other circumstance where this has become an issue. I use the clip with around ten sheets of paper interchanged 2-3 times daily, 5 days a week. Completely molding the bumpers around the steel clip after manufacturing (instead of post manufacturing/finishing touch) would be a nice improvement and prevent upsetting and/or possible loss of papers and bumpers). The only pen holder is contained within the compartment. There is no unmodified way of affixing a gel pen externally as they are typically larger in diameter. They do not fit well into the stretch band internally either. Given that they are the best writing utensils for this product with it's qualities, this is also a disappointing trait. When attempting to place a gel pen under the clip to secure it between the clip and paper, the affixed papers usually dislodge and end up all over the vehicle or counter. You cannot affix pens by the pocket clips to the finger handle of the clipboard clip as most plastic and metal pocket clips break due to the incline angle. It would be a nice addition if this included an outside pen storage option. The texture of this product might help with abrasion resistance, however it is more or less just a nuisance. All of this being said, I use this clipboard daily at work. It takes a little bit of a beating, and goes in and out of a jam-packed, non-padded leather/canvas backpack daily. The locking closure is the only effective securement of the compartment. I do believe the lock was added to make the device stay closed better instead of preventing access. The clipboard always ends up opening up on me when I grab it, however if everything contained internally is stowed in the mesh bands or under the hook&loop closure nothing falls out. Loose items do not do well inside. Smaller thin items can possible slip out as the sealing edges are by no means hermetic; they are constantly ever-so-slightly misaligned. The key is about as unsecure as it gets -- sadly I would say even 5 times worse than US handcuff keys and 10 times less durable. This is a simple locking mechanism that every single product is keyed-alike. For my usage the product performs semi-nominally. This product does not appear like it would be able to perform well in evironments that are moist, harsh, or where the security of the compartment is imperative due to its manufacturing and components. I do like the fabric inside as you can use the hook part of the "Velcro" (generic Hook&Loop) adhesive strips and attach items to the inside. You can use the inside strap for attaching belt clip items (Leatherman [or other generic multitools] in a case) through the holder and it will remain in place. All photos were taken after a few months of daily use.Durability: 3.5/5Looks: 4.5/5Functionality: 4/5Build Quality and Fitment: 3.5/5Manufacturing Component Selection: 3/5Storage Size: 4/5Storage/Compartment Security: 2/5I am not considering Price for Value in my final rating as it is ever changing however I would give that a 3/5 at most as I paid almost $30.

I purchased this to use at work. I'm in whatever the weather happens to be while at work, but before even having the rain begin or anything, after using it for roughly 2 weeks, the clipboard had 2 of the little rivets start slipping loose. I pushed them back in, kept an eye on them(upper right side of the clipboard), and then one day noticed that they've just completely fell off, leaving this exposed/falling apart.It's obviously possible that I just happened to get a defective unit, but still, sucks for the price nonetheless since it was exactly what I was needing.

Very good strong construction. Storage space is good with pockets and in the main section there’s a strong Velcro strap to hold paperwork.

I brought this item a couple of years ago I still use it to say very good

Arrived on time excellent quality , strong and roomy but neat and compact, perfect for carrying official documents inside with good quality keys to lock it and strong clipboard ont the outsidewell. Definately recommend it.

Use this for work and it is very sturdy and does what it needs to, it arrived from the USA intact and within a reasonable time frame.

Great product, saves me from having to carry loads of papers around when I’m working. the clipboard on the front is a bonus.
