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.
