So , I have a couple safes but the one I use most is my most expensive and I have had the most problems with my keypad. For my safes amigos, here are a couple tips.
#1 before you input the code, turn the handle counter clockwise. There is a bar inside the safe that if the handle is leaning on it it won't open.
#2 it would take me two or three tries to get it to pop open. So I brought out the guy who changed the keypad once before at the tune of about $360. He once again proposed a new keypad but said let me try to change the batteries. I explained I had done that with no luck. He went on to say let me try these Duracell copper top 9vs batteries. I pulled out my premium Energizer MAX that were fairly new. The Duracell made my safe work 100% of time on first try. He went on to say use the Interstate 9v is the highest power batteries via his testing. I just ordered the Interstate off Amazon.
Also, I tested my Energizeries and they showed mid way through the "good rating". So they were not dead or even close to dead.
So, before you call out a locksmith, try one of these two sets of batteries and save between $65 and $365 clams.
