A customer from Wigan had been using this Clarke CS1055 safe for years by just using the key and not locking the combination lock.

We opened the safe and provided the customer with the combination and instructions on how to dial it should the same thing happen again.
Yale Digital Safe Lost Keys
The batteries in this Yale digital safe at a hair salon in Manchester had fallen out and the owners had lost the override key. This had happened several times previously and was getting expensive for them to keep calling a locksmith to open it as each time they were told that they could not have a key provided to them for the emergency override lock. We attended the job, opened the safe and provided them with two new keys in case the batteries ever fall out or go flat again.
Seized Secure Safes Under Floor Safe
This Secure Safes (Coventry) Ltd under floor safe in Shevington was found by a relative dealing with the estate after the owners passing. The lock was seized up with rust and required lots of lubrication to free up the moving parts before we could pick the lock open. Once opened it was full of water and it was later mentioned that there had been a leak in the room. One of the drawbacks to under floor safes is that they are generally not watertight so any water from leaks or fire hoses will find it’s way down to the safes contents. It is important therefore to store things in watertight containers within the safe.
Dudley Ludlow Safe No Keys
Shop fitters at a Burnley shopping centre needed to move this Dudley Ludlow safe which was bolted to the floor and the keys had not been left by the previous tenants. We picked the 9 lever lock open giving them access to the securing bolt so that they could continue with their shop refit.
J W Timms Safe Rekeying
This J.W.Timms safe from 1951 was open but didn’t have any keys when acquired by the new owner.

New keys work nice and smoothly and the old girl can go back in to service for another 60+ years.
