Need a Key for Brinks 5062d Fire Safe - Key Code 3701

Forgot how to dial the combination on that old safe? Think you got the right numbers but the handle is stuck? What safe should you buy? Ask your safe questions here!

Need a Key for Brinks 5062d Fire Safe - Key Code 3701

Postby jbroderick01 » 11 Dec 2015 11:44

Hi,
I purchased a locked safe at an estate auction without a key. I know the digital combination, but it will not open without the key. The key code is 3701. If anyone has a key I could purchase, or suggestions on how to get the safe open that would be appreciated. I believe the key is locked inside the safe. Brinks no longer supports this model, nor does Honeywell. I appreciate any help you can provide. Thanks! Brinks 5062d Fire Safe

A picture of the safe and keyway would help all of us help you.
For the best book out there on high security locks and their operation, take a look at amazon.com for High-Security Mechanical Locks An Encyclopedic Reference. Written by our very own site member Greyman! A true 5 Star read!!

Best suggestion is to bring it to a locksmith shop, put it on their counter and either they can look up that key code in a book or in some special key software they have that is not available to the public, or they can just pick it open on the spot and either impression a key for it or disable the lock so you only need the keypad to unlock the safe door.

you may also have gotten the cold shoulder from Brinks/Honeywell because they dont know you from Adam, so who knows if you really bought it at auction, or are some kid who wants to break into grandma's Oxycotin safe and needs a key to do it. bringing it to a locksmith in person and having him call Brinks/Honeywell introduces someone they can trust and give the info to over the phone.

You said they don't support this model, did you just not find it on their website or did you call them up and give them the serial number of your safe (not the key number, the serial number) and they sait it was no longer supported?

EDIT: here is the form to ask for replacement keys, you may have to fill out a Product Ownership Verification Form first: http://honeywellsafes.com/UserFiles/ContentPageFiles/ORDER%20REPLACEMENT%20KEYS%20&%20COMBINATIONS.pdf



good luck, and let us know if you get it open!

Thanks so much for the suggestions and advice. Honeywell told me on the phone that they stopped supporting Brinks safes after 2011. I will try the missing key replacement method and if that doesn't work, I will take it into a local locksmith.

Does anyone have any idea how much it would cost to get a lock picked, then a key made for it? I'm sure it depends, but a ballpark range would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

In my shop it would cost $25 to $35 to pick the lock and another $25 to $35 to make a first key
many of these import safes use an expensive security or kumahira blank and that can add more
to the cost, they are thin blanks and hard to impression without tearing the head off the key, so
I don't even try to impression them anymore
