I inherited Dad’s when he passed. Long story but Mom couldn’t find the combo or the skeleton backup key. She called a locksmith who opened it and gave her the combo.
Fast forward about a year and the electronic lock failed. It was an absolute nightmare to get a backup skeleton key. Since the Safe was in Dad’s name, the wanted a copy of Death Certificate, blah, blah, blah. It took a dozen phone calls to get it all straightened out because No Habla....
NEVER will I buy a Safe with an electric lock.
