We received a very late emergency call at 10pm to open this Yale under floor safe in Crewe. The owner had lost the keys and required the cash it contained to pay for building materials at 6am the next morning. We attended and opened it up despite the time as we appreciate that problems often occur at the worst possible moment and we will always do our best to help out our customers.

We were called last night after a break in at a property in Formby in which the keys to this Fort Knox safe had been stolen. Unfortunately during the robbery the keys to another safe had also been found and the contents taken but they had been unable to locate this safe which was well concealed. We picked the safe lock open so that they could retrieve the contents to prevent the thieves from being able to return and use the stolen keys. Due to family circumstances the safe was no longer required and so we were able to keep the safe lid for refurbishing. This is always welcome as these locks are no longer in production and are very difficult to source.
This Churchill Domestic under floor safe in Sandbach, Cheshire would not open for the owners and the key was stuck in the lock. Initial diagnostics suggested that the lock was open but there was something blocking the rotation of the lid to both the open and the closed positions. We were able to rectify the situation without damaging the lid on this occasion but it’s important to never over-fill any safe. This is particularly important for this style of safe as the lock and bolt work are exposed underneath the lid so that anything touching it can block it and cause a lock out.
The new owners of a tanning salon in Wigan had not been given the keys to this locked Fort Knox under floor safe and wished to use it. We picked the safe open and were amazed to find it contained bags which appeared to be full of coins. On closer inspection they turned out to be tokens for the old tanning beds so not the great fortune that we were hoping for but it certainly added a bit of excitement to the safe opening. A new key was made by hand to the existing lock and the safe was put back in to service. The excitement must have been too much for the safe engineer who managed to leave one of his big toolboxes in the Salon and had to make a return trip to retrieve it.
This Fort Knox under floor safe was found by the new owners of a property in Rhyl, North Wales. They wanted the safe opened and had a great idea of using it as a time capsule for their children to open when they were older. We opened it up by picking the lock to reveal that the safe was empty. The lock was changed and new keys provided to prevent any potential existing keys from opening it.
The combination to this Fort Knox underfloor safe at a church in Liverpool had been lost. We attended the site and successfully opened it without any damage. We put the safe back into service and gave instruction on how to dial the combination.
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.
This Secure Safes (Coventry) Ltd under floor safe had been found by the new owner of a property in Southport who wanted it opened out of curiosity prior to tiling over where it was. We picked it open but unfortunately it was empty. As an added bonus the locking lid in the picture was given to us and makes a fitting trophy and a useful practice aid.
