Safe Opening — FAQ
Will opening my safe damage it?
We always attempt non-destructive methods first. In most cases the safe is opened without permanent damage. If drilling is required, we repair the drill point and restore the safe to working order.
Can you change the combination once the safe is open?
Yes. We can reset mechanical dial combinations and reprogram electronic keypads so you have a fresh, secure code.
How long does safe opening take?
Simple bypasses can take as little as 15 minutes. Manipulation of a mechanical dial may take 30–90 minutes. Drilling, if necessary, adds additional time but is still typically completed in a single visit.
