Drill-and-Rekey — When Manipulation Isn't Viable

When manipulation isn't viable, we turn to the drill-and-rekey method, a practical solution for safes with worn or seized mechanisms. This approach is the fastest way to access a safe when traditional methods fail.

First, we conduct a thorough assessment—checking the make, model, age, and condition of the safe. Once we've confirmed manipulation isn't feasible, we proceed with drilling.

Our process is meticulous. We document each step with photographs to guarantee transparency and provide a clear record for insurance and probate purposes.

After the safe is opened, we replace the lock or commission new keys or combinations. This guarantees your safe is as secure as before, minimizing any inconvenience.

We guarantee satisfaction with our service, assuring you're left with a fully functional safe. This method allows us to efficiently handle even the most stubborn safes while maintaining the integrity of the security system.
