Safe Opening Services

Ideally, a safe should be one of the most secure ways to protect valuable possessions and documents. However, losing access can be a huge threat and is often due to a forgotten combination or mechanical failure. CJW Locksmiths specialise in safe opening, so we offer professional solutions to help you regain access to your belongings.

Above all, our experienced locksmiths are trained to open all types of safes using non-destructive techniques whenever possible. This way, your safe will still remain usable and will be undamaged.

How Does Safe Opening Help You?

There are several reasons why a safe may become inaccessible, the most common being a lost or forgotten combination. Most safes rely on numerical codes or dials to open, whereas key safes rely on having a physical lock mechanism. So, if you lose the combination or the key, you may be locked out indefinitely.

However, electronic safes can also fail due to battery depletion, software errors, or damage to the circuit board. As a result, this may render them unresponsive even with the correct code. The biggest problem here is that if you don’t have the access details, you will need a professional locksmith to open it safely.

Mechanical failures can occur over time, thus causing jammed bolts or faulty locking mechanisms that prevent the door from opening. Most importantly, call in a trained professional if you’re struggling to open your safe. Even professional forced attempts to open can cause permanent damage.

Methods We Use As Bolton Locksmiths

CJW Locksmiths always prioritise non-destructive techniques to preserve the integrity of your safe. Above all, we always select the most suitable method based on the type of lock and security level.

Lock Manipulation

For combination safes, we use manipulation techniques to determine the correct sequence. Therefore, this makes it seamless to open without causing any damage.

Lock Picking

Key-operated safes can often be opened using professional lock-picking tools. As a result, CJW Locksmiths will restore access without the need for a new key or replacement lock.

Electronic Safe Bypass

Many digital safes have override features or reset options, thus allowing locksmiths to regain access without damaging the locking mechanism.

Drilling (Last Resort Method)

If all other options have been exhausted, we may need to drill a small access point in the safe. This is done carefully and precisely to minimise damage, so it will allow the lock to be repaired afterwards.

Types of Safes We Open

Digital Safes

These safes use keypads, which require you entering a numerical code. Therefore,  the use of advanced bypass techniques allows us to regain access when your system fails.

Combination Dial Safes

Traditional combination safes require precise alignment of the locking mechanism. If you forget the combination or the dial becomes faulty, our locksmiths can manipulate the lock to open it without damage.

Key-Operated Safes

For those who have lost their key, CJW Locksmiths can use specialist lock-picking tools or create a new key. Alternatively, if you are dealing with a broken lock then we can solve this too!

Fireproof Safes

Fireproof safes have fully optimised locking mechanisms, specifically designed to withstand high temperatures. CJW Locksmiths have the expertise and tools necessary to safely open any high-security safes.

Deposit & Cash Safes

On the other hand, these commercial safes are optimised for secure cash deposits. As expected, these have highly secured locking mechanisms for a truly effective solution.

High-Security Safes

These safes are built with reinforced security features, built to prevent any structural damage or unwanted access. Therefore, our locksmiths are trained to open them without compromising their future use.

Additional Services

Repair services are another vital service, which will contribute to restoring your lock to working condition. Many customers opt for a combination or key change, particularly after inheriting a safe or experiencing a security breach. CJW Locksmiths can reset your safe’s code, replace locks, or rekey key-operated safes, so only authorised individuals have access.

For your safe’s security, we offer lock upgrades that can fulfil maximum protection against unauthorised access. For example, this includes installing digital keypads, biometric locks, or reinforced locking system.

Additionally, regular safe maintenance is essential for maintaining top working order and smooth operations. More specifically, we provide lubrication, bolt alignment, battery replacements, and general servicing.

Emergency 24/7 Service

Safe emergencies can happen at any time, and leave you locked out of a safe containing cash or valuables. So, CJW Locksmiths offer a 24/7 emergency safe opening service for any hour of the day.

Our emergency service provides fast response times, thus ensuring that a professional locksmith reaches you as quickly as possible. Finally, we are available around the clock to assist with urgent safe-related issues.

CJW Locksmiths use non-destructive methods whenever possible, so guarantees that your safe remains functional after being opened. If drilling is required, our locksmiths carry out the process with precision to minimise damage.
