The combination had been lost to this Dudley safe at a business in Northwich, Cheshire. We opened the safe by manipulation so as not to cause any damage and reset the combination. If you need a safe cracker in Cheshire then please give us a call.
Lost Safe Combination
Phoenix 2500 DataCombi Safe Lost Combination
The combination had been lost to this Phoenix 2500 DataCombi data safe at a facility in Skelmersdale, Lancashire. Fortunately we were able to get it open without any damage so that it retained its fire rating and could continue to be used.
Eastcom Potevio 8100 ATM Machine Lost Combination
The combination had been lost to this Eastcom Potevio 8100 ATM cash machine at a business in Skelmersdale, Lancashire. We opened the S&G lock and set it to a new combination.
Dudley Europa Grade 1 Lost Combination
The combination lock had accidentally been locked on this Dudley Europa Grade 1 safe at a pub in Wythenshawe, Manchester and nobody knew the combination. We opened the combination lock without any damage which enabled them to use the key lock to open it once again.
Phoenix 1253 Titan Safe Opening
Having opened a Phoenix Titan 1250 Series safe at a business in Wigan we were asked to have a look at the safe next to it. This one was a Phoenix 1253 Titan for which the combination had been lost. Once again we opened it without damage and put it back into service allowing the customer to set a new combination of their choice.
Hilka Digital Home Safe S-50EA(II)
The key and combination had been lost to this Hilka Digital Home Safe S-50EA(II) in Lytham St Annes due to a bereavement and we were asked to sort out the problem. We picked the lock open and changed the cylinder to provide a new set of keys and reset the combination to put it back into service.
Fichet-Bauche Safe Opening
We were called to open this unusual Fichet-Bauche safe at a residence in Ormskirk due to a lost combination. The lock uses four separate clickers to set the combination after which the key can be used to retract the boltwork to open the door.
Fichet-Bauche is of French origin and came about through the merger of the Fichet and Bauche companies in 1967.
Crado Hideaway Under Floor Safe Opening
The Crado Hideaway is a rather unique under floor safe which has three separate dials which can be independently set to a number ranging from zero to nineteen. Each dial must be set correctly in order to retract the boltwork and allow the lid to be opened. The safe was made by Crado Devices Limited which were a London based company incorporated in 1975 but who unfortunately went into liquidation in 1981.
Although we were aware of this safe we haven’t to date been tasked with opening one so when this unit came up for sale we just had to have it out of professional curiosity. Safe engineers are a rather strange breed, we just love to tinker and see how things work so when this arrived in the workshop we were all over it like kids at Christmas. It didn’t take us long to set a random combination and open it using existing knowledge and techniques but it was still a great pleasure to finally see exactly how they work and to ultimately be able to use that knowledge to open them non-destructively.
So if you have a Crado Hideaway safe that you require opening then please do get in touch as it would be a pleasure to be able to open it for you.
Brattonsound Gun Cabinet Lost Combination
After an unfortunate hospitalisation of several years the owner of this Brattonsound gun safe could no longer remember the combination to open it. With a firearms inspection due it needed opening urgently so we headed to the home in Bolton to open it up for him. It is unusual to find these with mechanical combination locks but we got it open without any damage as we would have done with the key locking versions.
Chubb Lichfield Failed Combination Change
The staff at a Liverpool city centre store had attempted to change the combination on this Chubb Lichfield safe and could no longer open the door. The safe was fitted with a La Gard digital lock which would not open with the new or old code and having tried various permutations we had to drill into the lock to get it open. With the small hole repaired the lock was replaced and the safe put back in to service.
