Fort Knox Chancellor Lost Combination

The combination had been lost to this Fort Knox Chancellor under floor safe at a private residence in Maghull, Merseyside. We attended the customers home and identified the lock as a La Gard Group two, three wheel combination lock, initial diagnostics suggested that the lock was working correctly so we began the process of manipulating it open.

Manipulation is a process of discovering the combination of the lock and is often depicted in movies with the safe cracker using a stethoscope or an upturned glass tumbler to listen to the lock. Whilst we carry high tech listening devices they are not always necessary and with this lock we didn’t need anything but our un-sanded fingers to identify what the lock was ‘saying’ to us. Within a short space of time the lock had given up its first number of the combination shortly followed by the second and the third at which point the lid could be removed to reveal the safes contents. We then reset the combination to one of the owners choosing and gave instructions on how to dial the lock and how to insert and remove the lid.

Fort Knox safes are unfortunately no longer trading but they were based in Maghull so this one didn’t have to travel far from the factory where it was made.

The keys had been lost to this mobile cabinet at a shop in Salford, Manchester. We attended site, picked the lock open and supplied a new lock and keys.

Sentry Safe Keys Locked Inside

The key had been accidentally locked inside this Sentry safe at a Solicitors office in Liverpool. The contents were required for them to start their business first thing in the morning so we agreed to go out immediately and open it for them ready for the next day. Once on site we picked the lock open so that the safe could be put straight back into service once the keys were retrieved from inside. The whole thing from the initial call to the safe being opened took less than an hour, now how’s that for service!

Sentry X075 Flat Batteries No Keys

The batteries had run out and there was no override key for this Sentry X075 safe at a pub in Oldham. They had been told by another company that the safe would need to be drilled open and replaced. We disagreed and advised that we could pick the lock open without damage to the lock or safe. This is exactly what we did and had the safe back in service within five minutes of arriving on site.

Whilst it’s true that some locks and safes may require the use of a drill to open it is always our mission to open them non-destructively wherever possible. We train hard and have all the latest safe opening equipment to ensure that we can repeatedly provide the best service to our clients.

If you have been told that your safe requires drilling in order to open it then please give us a call for a second opinion.

The keys had been lost to this CBS Security Company safe in Chorley, Lancashire and the contents needed to be retrieved as the owners were moving house. We picked the lock open causing no damage which allowed the owners to proceed with their move.

SMP Wessex Safe Opening

We were asked to pick open and change the lock on this SMP Wessex safe at a nightclub in Lancaster. This wouldn’t usually be a problem but a look through the keyhole revealed that the lock had been removed which meant that when the door was last shut the safe thought it was under attack and went into lockdown mode by firing its internal relocker device. This was therefore a much bigger job than expected but we opened the safe, fitted a replacement lock and made an essential replacement part which was also missing.

This Chubb Trident safe was opened at a private residence in Bolton after the owners could not access the contents. The Chubb Trident provides a high level of burglar protection and is suitable for Banks, Building Societies and other organisations holding large amounts of cash or other valuables.

Brattonsound Sentinel Plus Gun Safe Lost Keys

The keys had been lost to this Brattonsound Sentinel Plus gun safe at a residence in Warrington. The lock on the main door is a double bitted lock which needs picking twice to fully open it which we did and then we picked open the lock on the internal ammunition cabinet. Both locks were replaced and new keys supplied to the happy owner.
