Safe Opening & Combination Change: comparing quotes
Locksmith · Markham, Ontario
The identification step is the same regardless of size, but the lock inside is not assumed from the safe's size: a small drop safe or under-counter unit can carry anything from a basic keypad to a high-security lock, so each is identified on its own before manipulation, reset or a combination change proceeds, with the same care around authority and aftercare applying equally.
Age and condition of the safe
An older lock with visible wear, a stiff dial, or a keypad with worn buttons often needs more careful handling than a newer unit in good working order.
Replacement lock or hardware needed
If the existing lock is worn out, damaged, or simply outdated, a replacement mechanical or electronic lock adds to the visit, priced separately from the opening itself.
Safe size and case construction
A compact drop safe with a thin body is generally quicker to assess than a large floor safe with a thick composite wall, and the tools involved differ accordingly.
