The keypad on this Sentry S3817 safe at an office in Bolton had stopped working so the staff were unable to open it. As our first safe opening of 2017 we were happy to get out of the office and were on site within 2 hours of receiving the call. Once on site we repaired the damaged keypad and had the safe open and back in service in no time at all.
The previous owners of a pub in Southport hadn’t left the keys for this Milners Thief Resisting door and the new owner required it to be put back in to service. We attended site and made new keys for the lock giving it a new lease of life.
The safe plaque reads: “Milners’ Patent Fire Resisting Thief Resisting Door No.2” and has the common “212” number which is the boiling point of water on the Farenheit scale. In smaller script it also reads “Improved for the government registry & courts 1857”.
The safe escutcheon reads: “Milner’s safe powderproof solid lock Liverpool & London”.
The digital lock on this Chubb Europa safe at a shop in Warrington was randomly failing to lock and would open intermittently. We identified a worn lock as the issue and replaced it for the customer.
This Dudley D2 safe at a National Gym chain in Bromborough, Wirral was looking a bit sorry for itself. The hinge pins were missing and the keys had been lost. We replaced the hinge pins, swapped the lock and cut extra keys so that they could reuse the safe which had been out of service for a number of years.
The door of this SLS 1000 safe at a pub in Skelmersdale, Lancashire would not open when the correct combination had been dialled. Unfortunately a lot of brute force had been attempted prior to calling us out causing much more damage by breaking the handle and damaging the combination lock dial. Once the door was open we repaired the handle and lock and put the safe back in to service.
The lock had failed on this Bristol Maid medicine cabinet at a care facility in Burscough, Lancashire. We were asked to attend to remedy the problem which we duly did by changing the lock and supplying new keys.
We were referred this job by a locksmith who had identified that the key had snapped in the lock and would not move in either direction. This Phoenix safe was located at a medical practice in Denbigh, Wales. On attending site we confirmed the locksmiths findings and diagnosed an internal fault preventing the bolt from retracting which caused the key to snap. At this stage we thought there was a high probability that the container would need to be drilled but pulling an ace out of our sleeve we got the bolt to retract and open the door. Once open we could see that the door had been violently closed whilst the lock was in the locked position which had bent the boltwork enough for it to jam. Having straightened out the boltwork the next step was to extract the broken key which turned out to be very stubborn and we ended up stripping the whole lock down in order to get the broken bit out.
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 Safeplace Magna 800 Digital Hotel Safe would not open when the correct code was entered. We attended the Hotel overlooking Lake Windermere in the Lake District to open and repair it as they urgently required access to the contents. Once on site we discovered that the top bolt was not retracting but we were able to open it without any damage and reattach it to the boltwork. A nice clean job leaving a fully functional safe with no holes to fill. Another professional safe opening completed by Paladin Safe Services.
We were called to this safe at a shop in Whiston, Merseyside as the key was stuck and the door would not open. We identified that there was a boltwork failure and managed to open the safe without any further damage. Once opened the boltwork was repaired and the safe put back in to service for years to come.
