SECURING THE SAFE

DRAWER MOUNTING

Select an appropriate sized drawer for your 

safe.  Place the safe in the drawer and try 

opening and closing the safe and drawer.  

Do not attempt to close the drawer with the 

safe open.

Place the safe in the desired drawer and mark 

the mounting holes with a pencil.  Remove the 

safe and drill the pilot holes for the screws.  

Replace the safe in the drawer and insert the 

screws through the mounting holes and drawer 

bottom.  For maximum security, use 2 mounting 

screws.  Secure the screw by tightening the 

Nylock nut on the screws.  (Figure 1)

SELECTING A LOCATION

This safe must be mounted into a drawer 

(PDS-1800-E) or into a drawer or the wall 

(PDS-1805-E).  For optimal safety and security, 

the safe should be installed in an isolated, dry 

and secure area.

NOTE:  This safe must be mounted into a 

drawer (PDS-1800-E) or into a drawer or the 

wall (PDS-1805-E).  Failure to do so will 

compromise the safety and security of the safe.

To lock the safe, close the door and turn the 

knob to the left to the 12:00 position.

LOCKING THE SAFE

NOTE ON LOCKING THE SAFE:  Because the 

locking mechanism is deactivated for 

approximately 3 to 6 seconds after the

6 seconds from the time the combination is 

entered to lock the safe. Also, when locking 

the safe, always make sure the knob is turned 

completely to the left to the 12:00 position.  

If the knob is not turned to the 12:00 position 

during the locking process, the locking 

mechanism will not lock.

THE SAFE SHOULD ALWAYS BE KEPT OUT 

OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
