We’ve worked on everything from antique combination safes to high-end electronic models. Whether it’s stuck, jammed, locked out, or completely offline, we’ll get it open carefully and without damage whenever possible.
What Counts as a Safe Opening?
Safe openings aren’t always dramatic, but they’re rarely straightforward either. Sometimes it’s just a forgotten code or a lost key. Other times, it’s a safe that hasn’t been touched for so long that it’s refusing to open when it matters most. Regardless of whether the lock is mechanical, digital, or a combination of both, when something goes wrong, a simple fix often isn’t enough.
This is the most common type of safe opening call, and it usually starts the same way. Someone used to know the combination, but now they’re not sure. Or the safe came with the property, but no one ever had the access info. In some cases, a previous employee left a business without handing over the safe key or login code. Other times, it’s an old family safe passed down from a relative, sealed for years with no clue how to open it.
Safes with digital keypads are everywhere now, from hotel rooms and home offices to retail shops and back offices. And while they’re convenient, they come with their own set of problems. Batteries die. Circuit boards fail. Keypads stop responding. The access code might work perfectly, but nothing clicks or opens when it should. If time is of the essence, our emergency locksmith services are available 24/7 to help you avoid delays.
Even if you have the code or the key, that doesn’t guarantee the safe will open. Over time, internal parts wear down. Bolts misalign. Hinges get stuck. A mechanical lock might click like it always has, but the door won’t budge. Or the bolt might partially release but jam partway through. This is a frequent occurrence with older safes that haven’t been serviced or opened in years.

What Makes Safe Opening Different from Other Locksmith Work?
Opening a safe is not the same as unlocking a door. Safes are built by design to resist entry. The thicker the walls, the stronger the bolts, the more complex the locking system, the harder it is to break into. That’s what they’re for. They’re meant to hold out against prying, drilling, forced entry, and manipulation. Which is why opening one without ruining it takes real care and experience.
Many of the safes we work on have backup protection built in, things like relockers, time delays, redundant bolts, and glass trigger plates. These systems activate if someone tries to force the door, making the safe even harder to open afterward. That’s why we always recommend letting a trained professional take a look before anyone tries to open it themselves.
Even small and personal safes have delicate internal components. One wrong move and the safe goes from stuck to sealed.

What Happens After the Safe Is Open?
Once we’ve opened the safe, whether gently through lock manipulation or carefully with specialized tools, we’ll help you decide what happens next. That might mean:
Resetting the combination
Replacing the lock entirely
Switching from mechanical to electronic
Upgrading to a dual-lock system
Decommissioning the safe and securing the contents elsewhere
We don’t just get it open and leave. We help you secure it again. That’s part of why clients return to us when they upgrade or relocate. If you’re dealing with a safe in a workplace or a rental property, we can also advise you on future-proof options and other commercial locksmith solutions that prevent similar access issues later.
