Battery Replacement FAQ's
Suggestions for all safes and cabinets that require batteries
Is there a backup way to get into the safe if my batteries dies?
For added security there is no other way to get into the safe. However, the battery compartment is located on the outside of the safe so you can still change the battery and regain access to your safe, even if it dies. The combination will remain the same.
How often should I change my battery?
The frequency that you will have to change your battery varies by user. If you use your safe multiple times a day you may have to change your battery more frequently than someone who uses the safe three times a week. Just to be safe, we suggest changing the battery of your safe twice a year.
What kind of battery should I use?
We recommend using an all alkaline Duracell or Energizer battery with an expiration date of five years in the future. This will ensure optimal lock performance.
