• Safes are incredibly secure places to store your
  most precious or valuable items in the home or
  office, but sometimes, getting into them when you
  need to, isnt always straightforward. Whether
  youve lost the key, forgotten the combination,
  or the bolt work is jammed, you wont be getting
  back into it, without the help of a qualified and
  experienced safe technician.
• Breaking into your safe without professional
  guidance is not advisable, even in an emergency,
  since you could do far more harm to the safe and
  even injure yourself.
• Here are 3 things that you mustnt do when you
  get locked out of your safe

• 1.Try and override the safes security
• Attempting to override any of the security
  features of your high security safe could make it
  even harder to get inside it, and without
  specialist knowledge, you should never try to do
  this, Instead, you should call a local safe
  installer and give them the make and serial
  number of your safe, so that they can guide you
  to get back into it without damaging it, or send
  a technician out to help you.
• Disassemble the safes wiring
• Trying to disassemble the wiring of your safe
  will likely result in a manual lockout (a feature
  designed to prevent an attack from a burglar),
  and could even render your safe useless once its
  open.

• Drill into a locked safe
• Whatever type of safe youve got, be it
  electronic, combination or standard lock,
  drilling into it is extremely dangerous and if
  you dont injure yourself while doing it, youll
  make it unrepairable at the very least.

• Seeking professional help to get back inside your
  safe
• Whether you call the company that you bought the
  safe from, or choose another safe seller and
  installer in your area (or even a locksmith),
  they are the only people qualified and
  experienced enough to get your safe open without
  causing any harm to anyone, or anything. With
  specialist training in all kind of lock
  emergencies, safe technicians and licensed
  locksmiths can fix broken locks, remove broken
  keys from locks, and help with all manner of

  experiencing. They can also give you up-to-date
  security advice and help you choose security
  systems for your home, if you feel that its not
  as secure as it could be.
