A retail client in Wigan contacted us after their Burton Aver Deposit safe suddenly stopped accepting the correct combination on its digital lock. With the safe refusing to open, the business faced an immediate problem — the cash collection company could no longer access the contents, disrupting their normal banking and cash handling procedures.
Deposit safes like the Burton Aver range are commonly used in retail environments because they allow staff to securely deposit cash throughout the day without giving full access to the main compartment. They are robust, reliable units designed for demanding commercial use, but when a digital lock fails, it can bring operations to a standstill.
Understanding the urgency, we attended promptly and diagnosed the issue with the lock mechanism. Using our specialist safe-opening techniques, we were able to open the safe cleanly and without causing any damage, preserving both the safe and its locking system.
Because we carry a wide range of parts and locks in our service vehicles, we were also able to replace the faulty components from stock during the same visit. This meant the safe was quickly restored to full working order, allowing the business and their cash collection provider to resume normal operations immediately.
The client was relieved to avoid the downtime and expense that can come with prolonged lock failures or replacement safes, and appreciated having the problem resolved in a single visit.
