Salvus Safe Safecracker Liverpool

We were recently called to a busy restaurant in Liverpool city centre that was having serious trouble with their Salvus deposit safe. The safe featured two separate digital locks—one on the main compartment and another on the deposit drawer. Unfortunately, both locks had become faulty and unresponsive, leaving the staff unable to access cash deposits or the contents of the safe.

With daily business depending on secure and efficient cash handling, this presented a major problem for the restaurant team. That’s when they called Paladin Safe Services for a fast, professional solution.

We attended the same day and quickly diagnosed the issue: both digital locks had failed electronically, preventing the safe from opening through normal means. Thanks to our experience with Salvus models and other commercial-grade safes, we were able to open both the main compartment and the deposit drawer non-destructively, avoiding any damage to the safe body or locking mechanism.

Once open, we replaced both digital locks on-site from our van stock, ensuring the safe was immediately put back into full working order. The restaurant team were relieved to have access restored without disruption to their business, and they now have two brand-new, fully functional locks with reset codes for improved security.

Whether it’s a failed electronic lock, a jammed drawer, or a complete lockout, Paladin Safe Services is ready to respond—fast. Another same-day, damage-free resolution delivered in Liverpool city centre, keeping local businesses secure and running smoothly.

Digital Kacsoo Safe Lost Combination – Safecracker Bolton

We were recently contacted by a customer in Bolton who had lost access to their Kacsoo safe. Not only had they forgotten the digital code, but they had also misplaced the emergency override key, leaving them completely locked out with no way to retrieve the contents.

Kacsoo safes, while compact and typically used in homes or small offices, still offer solid protection and are designed to prevent easy bypassing—especially when both access methods are unavailable. Fortunately, the customer got in touch with Paladin Safe Services, and we were happy to help.

We attended promptly and used our professional safe-opening tools and techniques to gain entry to the safe without causing any damage. Non-destructive entry is always our goal, and in this case, we were able to carefully open the safe while keeping both the lock and the safe’s structure completely intact.

Once the safe was open, we reset the digital lock to a new code chosen by the customer and ensured everything was back in perfect working order. They were relieved to regain access to their valuables and pleased that the safe was still fully functional—with no need for costly replacements.

If you’ve lost your safe code or keys, don’t panic—Paladin Safe Services provides fast, expert solutions in Bolton and across the North West. Another safe opened, secured, and restored by the professionals.

G.Lucas Antique Safe – Safecracker Liverpool

We were recently contacted by a church in Liverpool that was struggling to open their G. Lucas double-door antique safe, despite having what they believed were the correct keys. The safe, which had been in use for many decades, was an important part of the church’s operations, used to store historical records, valuables, and important documents.

Antique safes like those made by G. Lucas are known for their heavy-duty construction and intricate internal mechanisms. While the keys may have physically fit the lock, age, wear, or internal misalignment can sometimes prevent the bolts from disengaging properly—leaving the safe stubbornly locked even with the right key in hand.

Understanding the importance of preserving the safe and its historical value, we attended the site and set to work using our non-destructive safe-opening techniques. With care and precision, we were able to open the safe without causing any damage, preserving both its appearance and functionality.

Once open, we checked over the internal mechanism and confirmed everything was in working order. After a bit of maintenance and realignment, we were able to return the safe to full working condition, ensuring it could continue serving the church well into the future.

The church was delighted to have their trusted safe back in service—and relieved that no damage was done to this beautifully crafted piece of security history.

If you have an antique safe that refuses to open, don’t force it or risk damaging it—call Paladin Safe Services. Proudly serving Liverpool and beyond with expert care for old and new safes alike.

Lost Keys To Safe – Safecracker Bury

We were recently called out to a social club in Bury that had found themselves locked out of their safe after the keys had been lost. With no way to access the contents and no spare keys to be found, the staff needed a prompt solution to regain access without causing unnecessary damage.

The safe in question was a well-used, older model that had served the club faithfully for many years. Although time had taken its toll on the exterior, the lock was still a challenge to bypass—something that highlights just how well-built some of these older safes really are.

Using our non-destructive lockpicking techniques, we were able to open the safe cleanly and professionally, allowing the staff to retrieve the contents without any damage to the cabinet or mechanism.

After discussing options with the club, they decided that—due to the age and wear of the safe—it was time for an upgrade rather than having new keys cut. We provided advice on modern, secure replacements suited to their needs and budget, helping them make an informed decision about improving their security moving forward.

Another successful, damage-free safe opening carried out in Bury by Paladin Safe Services—trusted by businesses and community organisations alike when secure access matters most.

Phoenix Fire Fighter 0421 Safecracker Warrington

We were recently called to assist a homeowner in Warrington who was having trouble accessing their Phoenix Fire Fighter 0421 safe. Despite having the correct combination, the safe simply wouldn’t open — a frustrating situation, especially when you’re confident you’re entering the right code.

The Phoenix Fire Fighter range is well-regarded for its high level of fire resistance and security, making it a popular choice for protecting valuables and important documents. However, like any mechanical or electronic locking system, faults can sometimes occur — even when the correct code is being used.

After contacting Paladin Safe Services, we attended the property promptly to assess the issue. Using our specialist knowledge and tools, we were able to diagnose the problem and open the safe non-destructively, ensuring no damage was done to the lock or the safe body.

Alpha Safes Hotel Safe Lost Combination – Safecracker Cheshire

We were recently called to a home in Cheshire where the homeowner was unable to access their Alpha Safes hotel-style safe. Like many digital hotel safes, this model allowed the user to set their own code — but in this case, the code had unfortunately been forgotten, leaving the safe locked and the contents out of reach.

While hotel safes are often compact, they still offer solid protection and can be tricky to open without the correct code — especially if you want to avoid damaging the safe in the process. Fortunately, the homeowner contacted Paladin Safe Services for a professional, non-destructive solution.

We attended promptly and used our expertise to open the digital lock without causing any damage to the safe or its electronics. Once we had it open, we fully reset the lock and ensured it was back in full working order, ready to be used again.

To give the customer peace of mind going forward, we also demonstrated how to set a new code and provided advice on what to do if they ever forget it again — including how to contact us for safe, secure assistance.

John Port Antique Safe Stolen Key – Safecracker Manchester

We were recently called to assist a customer in Greater Manchester who found himself locked out of his John Port antique safe after his van was stolen — along with the only key to the safe. The situation was frustrating, not only because the contents of the safe were now inaccessible, but also because the safe itself was a valuable antique with both practical and sentimental value.

John Port safes are known for their robust, old-world craftsmanship and solid security features. As with many antique safes, destructive entry would not only ruin its function but also destroy its historical integrity. That’s where our expertise comes in.

At Paladin Safe Services, we specialise in opening vintage and antique safes using non-destructive methods, and this was no exception. We carefully picked open the original lock without causing any damage to the safe or its mechanism. This precise approach meant that the original lock was preserved in full working order, and if the customer ever chooses to do so, new keys can be cut to the existing lock.

The owner was relieved and grateful to have his safe open again, with its structure and function completely intact. It’s always a pleasure to work on a piece of British security history, and even better when we can restore it to working order without compromising its value.

Chatwood-Milner Bank Vault Door Safecracker

We were recently called to a job in Bradford, West Yorkshire, where a team of contractors working inside an ex-bank building had accidentally closed a Chatwood-Milner vault door—without the combinations needed to reopen it. With no way to access the room and concern growing about what was trapped inside, they needed a fast and professional solution.

Chatwood-Milner vault doors are iconic pieces of British engineering, designed to protect high-value assets in banking environments. Known for their immense strength, complex locking mechanisms, and layered security features, these doors are built to resist even the most determined attacks. That makes them excellent at keeping intruders out—but also a major problem if they’re closed by mistake.

Luckily, the owners knew who to call. At Paladin Safe Services, we’ve opened countless high-security vaults and strongroom doors over the years, including many Chatwood-Milner models. Our deep understanding of these historical locking systems, combined with specialist tools and non-destructive techniques, means we can handle even the most intimidating jobs with confidence.

We attended the site in Bradford promptly and, after a detailed assessment of the vault door’s condition and lock configuration, we got to work. Using our expertise, we were able to open the vault door without causing any damage, restoring access to the sealed room and avoiding what could have been a costly and time-consuming situation for the building’s owners.

This job is a perfect example of why experience matters when dealing with vintage and commercial-grade safes and vaults. These doors aren’t just heavy—they’re highly engineered pieces of security history, and opening them properly requires both technical knowledge and a careful hand.

If you’ve found yourself locked out of a vault or strongroom—whether through accident, lost keys, or forgotten combinations—Paladin Safe Services has the skill and discretion to get the job done right. Another big vault, successfully and professionally opened in Bradford.

Dudley Safe Lost Combination – Safecracker Morecambe

We were recently called to assist a customer in Morecambe who was unable to access their Dudley safe, which was fitted with a La Gard electronic combination lock. The owners had unfortunately forgotten the code and had no way of bypassing the system, leaving the contents of the safe completely inaccessible.

La Gard electronic locks are known for their reliability and security, often found on commercial-grade safes like the Dudley range. However, when a combination is lost or forgotten, these locks can be incredibly difficult to overcome without the right expertise and equipment.

Fortunately, the team at Paladin Safe Services is highly experienced in dealing with situations just like this. We attended the property in Morecambe and used specialist non-destructive safe-cracking equipment to carefully open the lock without damaging the safe or its components. Our priority is always to preserve the integrity of the safe, allowing it to be fully functional once the issue is resolved.

Once we gained entry, we worked with the client to reset the electronic combination to a new code of their choosing, ensuring the safe could be used again with complete security and confidence.

This job is a perfect example of how professional tools and knowledge can solve what feels like a major problem—without drilling, damage, or costly replacements. If you’ve forgotten your safe combination or experienced a digital lock failure, don’t panic. Paladin Safe Services is here to help with expert, non-destructive solutions in Morecambe and across the North West.

European Union Safe Company Vienna Lost Keys

We were recently called to a property in Newton-le-Willows to assist with a locked European Union Safe Company – Vienna model safe. The owner had unfortunately lost the keys and had no way of accessing the contents inside. With the safe securely locked and no spares available, they needed a professional solution that wouldn’t damage the safe or compromise its future usability.

The Vienna model is known for its solid construction and reliable key locking mechanism, designed to provide a high level of security. Opening one of these safes without keys is no small task—it requires a steady hand, the right tools, and detailed knowledge of the internal workings of safe locks.

Rather than taking a destructive approach, we used our specialist non-destructive entry methods and carefully picked open the lock. This allowed us to gain access without damaging the lock or the safe itself—meaning it remained fully functional and undamaged throughout the process.

One of the key benefits of this approach is that it preserves the original lock, allowing us to cut and supply a new set of keys to match the existing mechanism if required in the future. In this case, the customer didn’t need new keys immediately, but they now have the option to restore full use of the safe whenever they choose.

Another job completed professionally and cleanly by Paladin Safe Services in Newton-le-Willows—demonstrating once again that even high-security safes can be opened without damage when you have the right skills and experience.
