A busy match day was not a good time for a club in Preston to be unable to access their till drawers. The combination on this Tann Cashier safe was never used and somebody had accidentally knocked the dial so they could no longer open the safe with the key. We attended and opened the safe without any damage.
Lost Safe Combination
Chubb Bank Vault Door Lost Combination
The new tenants of an ex-bank building in Liverpool had been using this Chubb vault for several weeks with just the key locks as they did not know the combination. As often happens in these circumstances somebody moved the combination dial which locked them out of the vault. We attended the site and determined the combination through the process of manipulation to open the door without damage. We then reset the combination to one of their choosing to enable them to open it themselves in the future.
Fort Knox Underfloor Safe With Combination Lock
The combination had been lost to this Fort Knox underfloor safe at a home in Mawdesley, Lancashire. We attended site and opened it without any damage for the customer.
Fort Knox Chancellor Lost Combination
The combination had been lost to this Fort Knox Chancellor under floor safe at a private residence in Maghull, Merseyside. We attended the customers home and identified the lock as a La Gard Group two, three wheel combination lock, initial diagnostics suggested that the lock was working correctly so we began the process of manipulating it open.
Manipulation is a process of discovering the combination of the lock and is often depicted in movies with the safe cracker using a stethoscope or an upturned glass tumbler to listen to the lock. Whilst we carry high tech listening devices they are not always necessary and with this lock we didn’t need anything but our un-sanded fingers to identify what the lock was ‘saying’ to us. Within a short space of time the lock had given up its first number of the combination shortly followed by the second and the third at which point the lid could be removed to reveal the safes contents. We then reset the combination to one of the owners choosing and gave instructions on how to dial the lock and how to insert and remove the lid.
Fort Knox safes are unfortunately no longer trading but they were based in Maghull so this one didn’t have to travel far from the factory where it was made.
Phoenix 2500 Datacombi Lost Combination
The combination had been lost to this Phoenix 2500 Datacombi safe at an office in Manchester. We attended site and opened it, reset the combination and put it back in to service.
The Phoenix 2500 Datacombi safe provides fire protection for paper documents, computer diskettes, tapes and all forms of data storage and security for cash and valuables all in one unit and is suitable for use in residential or business premises.
Fire Fyter FF1500 Safe Lost Combination
Due to a family bereavement the code to this Fire Fyter FF1500 was lost and the relatives required access to it’s contents. We attended the private residence in Manchester and opened the safe as requested.
Chubb ABP Anti-Blowpipe Lost Combination
The combination had been lost to this Chubb Standard Quality Anti-Blowpipe (ABP) safe at an office in Birkenhead, Wirral. Standing within an outer Chubb strongroom this was obviously intended to provide maximum protection and proved to be a formidable opponent.
This one took a lot longer to open than we had anticipated but as always we had provided a fixed price opening quote which we stick to no matter how long it takes us so you can rest assured that the price we say is the price you will pay.
Post Office Safes, Lost Keys And Combination
Chubb TDR Safe With Combination Lock
The owners of this Chubb TDR at a supermarket in Burnley were unable to open their safe. We attended site within the hour of the call and with a bit of lateral thinking had it open within five minutes.
Ministry Cabinet Mark IV Manifoil
The combination to a Manifoil Mark 4 combination lock on a ministry cabinet in North Wales had been lost. We were asked to open the unit as they were disposing of it and needed it emptied prior to it being let off site. Due to the nature of the facility we were not allowed to take photographs and had to be escorted at all times but we got the job done.
