Safes We Open and Service

Find your safe type below, since each one has its own page covering the locks it uses, the problems owners usually run into and what our technicians do about them.

Wall Safe

Wall safes sit between the studs behind a mirror, picture or panel and usually lock with a key or an electronic keypad, so lost keys and dead batteries are the usual reasons people call. Read about our wall safe service.

Floor Safe

A floor safe is set into the concrete slab with only the lid showing, and because dirt falls into the lock from above, stiff dials and sticky keys are common. See our floor safe service.

Gun Safe

Gun safes range from small handgun boxes to tall cabinets with dial, keypad or fingerprint locks, and because they hold firearms, proof of ownership always comes first. Learn more about gun safe service.

High Security Safe

These have thicker steel, hardened plates guarding the lock and often a UL burglary rating such as TL 15 or TL 30, so opening one without damage takes time and patience. Read about high security safe service.

Fireproof Safe

Fire safes carry a rating for time and temperature, which is a different thing from a burglary rating, and moisture can collect inside while the lighter locks gradually wear. See our fireproof safe service.

Jewelry Safe

Jewelry safes often look like fine furniture on the outside, with lined drawers behind a steel door, but the lock still fails the same way as any other safe. Learn about jewelry safe service.

Commercial Safe

Stores, offices and restaurants use heavier safes that get opened many times a day, so the locks wear faster and lockouts at closing time are a common call. See our commercial safe service.

Data and Media Safe

Drives, disks and photographs need a lower internal temperature than paper does during a fire, so these safes add a heavy inner liner that has to be handled carefully. Read about data safe service.

Depository Safe

A depository safe has a drop slot or hopper so employees can make deposits without opening the main door, and jammed slots and worn locks are the usual problems. See our depository safe service.

Antique Safe

Older safes may have original combination locks with worn parts and no paperwork left, so they call for gentle work that lets the safe keep its value. Learn about antique safe service.

Electronic Safe

Keypad and digital safes fail most often because of weak batteries, worn keypads or a code changed by mistake, and many can be opened with a bypass and fitted with a new lock. Read about electronic safe service.

Problems We Fix

I forgot the combination.The technician opens the safe by manipulation or by working the lock, then sets a new combination of your choosing and tests it with you.
The keypad is dead.We check the power supply first and, where the lock design allows it, bypass the failed keypad and install a new electronic lock.
I lost the key.Most safe key locks can be picked or decoded on location, which means a replacement key can usually be cut during the same visit.
The handle turns but the door stays shut.Binding bolts or a broken lock part are common causes, so we take the pressure off the bolts, open the door and service the lock.
The last owner left a locked safe behind.With proof that the property is yours, we open the safe and set up the lock with a fresh combination, code or key.

How We Handle the Job

1
Describe the safe
Tell us the safe type, the kind of lock and what happened, so the technician arrives with the right tools for that particular safe.
2
Show proof of ownership
We confirm the safe is yours with a receipt, identification at the address or similar paperwork before any work begins.
3
Agree on the price
The technician inspects the lock, explains the method that fits it and gives you the price before starting.
4
Open, repair and test
We open the safe with as little damage as possible, repair anything that had to be drilled and test the lock with you.

What Decides the Price

Safe work is priced by the safe type, the lock and the opening method. A dead keypad on a small home safe is usually a short visit, while a high security business lock that needs manipulation can take much longer, and drilling adds the cost of the repair and any replacement parts.

Business estimates are always free, and for more detail on local rates you can read how much a locksmith costs in Las Vegas.

Picking the Right Safe for a Las Vegas Home or Business

Start with what you need to protect against. A fire rating and a burglary rating are different things, and a fire safe is not a burglary safe by default. Bolting any safe to the concrete slab makes it much harder to carry off, and keeping it inside the cooled part of the building protects batteries and keeps moisture down.

Businesses that handle cash all day often do better with a depository safe, so staff can drop deposits without opening the main door. For the locks on the rest of the property, see our residential locksmith and commercial locksmith pages.

Questions We Get Asked

What types of safes can Silver State Locksmith in Las Vegas crack?

We open home, business and high security safes, including dial combination safes, keypad and fingerprint safes, gun safes, wall and floor safes, depository safes and older antique safes. Non destructive methods come first, so in most cases the safe and what is inside stay undamaged. We ask for proof of ownership before any opening.

How do locksmiths in Las Vegas crack safes without damaging them?

The main method is manipulation, which means reading the lock through the dial by feel and sound until the combination is found. Keypad locks can sometimes be bypassed, and key locks can be picked or decoded. Drilling is a last resort, and when it is needed the hole is repaired so the safe locks again.

What should I do if I forget the combination to my safe in Las Vegas?

Stop guessing numbers and do not pry at the door, since force can bend the bolts and make the job harder. Look for the original paperwork, which sometimes lists the factory combination, and if that does not help, call us so we can confirm ownership, open the safe and set a new combination you choose.

How long does it take for a locksmith in Las Vegas to crack a safe?

It depends on the safe and the lock, since a dead keypad or a simple key lock can be quick, while manipulating a high security dial or a worn antique lock may take several hours. The technician looks at the lock first and gives you an idea of the time along with the price.

Are safe cracking services by locksmiths in Las Vegas confidential?

The work happens at your home or business, so the safe never leaves your sight and you can stay in the room while it is opened. We ask for proof of ownership to protect you, and the technician does not need to see or handle the contents to open the lock.
