We were recently called out to Rugby to open a Sandwell Security safe, manufactured by the historic Thomas Withers & Sons Ltd of West Bromwich. The safe had been locked for some time, and the keys were nowhere to be found. The owner was keen to access the contents but also wanted to preserve the integrity of the safe, which held both practical and sentimental value.
Understanding the importance of maintaining the safe’s condition—especially one with such historical significance—we used precise, non-destructive lockpicking techniques to carefully open the safe without causing any damage.
The Thomas Withers & Sons brand has a long-standing reputation for robust, well-built security products, and this safe was no exception. Built to last, it was a pleasure to work on such a solid piece of British safe-making history.
With the safe successfully opened and left completely intact, the owner was delighted to finally access the contents and retain a fully functional, characterful safe.
Another piece of security history expertly unlocked by Paladin Safe Services—proud to serve Rugby and the surrounding areas with professional and respectful safe-opening solutions.
