4. 

I am getting no response from my electronic lock. 

Replace your battery with a new 9V Duracell™ or Energizer™ battery with a “use date” of  
at least 4 years in the future. Low current will cause keypad to malfunction.  Make sure all 
wires are properly and tightly connected to the keypad with no pinched wires or bent 
connectors. 

 

5. 

My electronic lock is randomly flashing and not allowing me to enter my combination. 

You may be in lock-out mode. Do not touch anything on the keypad for a period of  10-15 
minutes. 

(If you attempt to enter your combination while in lock-out mode, the lock-out 

period will be extended. Changing the battery on your keypad while in lock-out mode will 
also extend the lock-out period.)

 After you have waited 10-15 minutes and the light stops 

flashing, you may then enter your combination. If it is still flashing randomly, wait up to 2 
hours before trying again.

 

6. 

My electronic lock beeps and flashes after every digit is pressed, but it will not  
lock/unlock my safe.  

If your lock is accepting your combination (indicated by two beeps and flashes after the 
combination has been pressed), you may have a battery with too little current. Try 
connecting a new 9V Duracell™ or Energizer™ battery with a “use date” at least 4 years in 
the future. Then, try your combination again. If your lock gives you three beeps and flashes 
after the combination has been pressed, an incorrect code has been entered. In some cases, 
this may also indicate a low battery.

 

7. 

I’ve changed my battery and the safe is still not locking/unlocking.  

If you are attempting to unlock the safe, rotate the handle counter-clockwise while you 
enter your combination. Once you hear the two beeps wait for 2 seconds, and then rotate 
clockwise to open. If you are attempting to lock the safe, turn the handle to the left until it 
stops, then press and hold the handle to the left for 7 seconds before checking to see if it 
locked. 

 

8. 

What do I do if I have forgotten the combination to my safe? 

If you have an electronic lock and have forgotten your code, you will have to have your safe 
drilled open by a locksmith, which could cost you over $500. To prevent this, please keep 
your combination in a secure location– NOT inside your safe. WE DO NOT STORE YOUR 
COMBINATION AT THE FACTORY. If you have a manual lock, we may have your combination 
on file; however, we do not guarantee it is available, nor are we responsible for keeping the 
information. If available, we can give the factory set combination to you with proof of 
purchase and identification. If you have since changed your combination, a locksmith must 
be called.

 

9. 

My door seems loose when closed. Is there a way to tighten this? 

Behind the doorframe on the left hand side of the door frame there are two adjustable tabs.  
Tabs can be adjusted by bending in or out to adjust door play when locked. Please contact 
tech support for instructions on how to adjust properly.
