- The till drawer has been holding two days of cash because the new shop never got a proper safe, and a locked drawer under the counter is the only thing standing between that cash and anyone who works late.Safe Installation & Servicing
- You have lost count of how many people have had a key to your house over the years: cleaners, a contractor, a former partner, the previous owner's family.High Security Locks
High Security Locks
Cylinders and deadbolts built to resist picking, bumping and drilling, keys that cannot be copied without authorisation, and safes opened or installed.
Safe Opening & Combination Change
Confirming who has the authority to open it
Before any tool touches the safe, the locksmith establishes who has the right to be inside it. For a business this is usually straightforward: an owner, manager or authorized employee identifies themselves and their connection to the account. For an estate, a secondhand purchase or a change of ownership, proof such as a bill of sale, a property transfer or an executor's documentation fills the same role.
This step is treated as routine good practice rather than an obstacle, because it protects the current owner from a later dispute over who authorized access to a safe's contents just as much as it protects anyone else with an interest in it.
