Im in bit of a bind... so any help would be great

Postby PureSkills » 10 Feb 2007 3:19

I stumbled accross the pic of this safe, which i recently came into possession of. http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi ... ID=1747248. The safe is empty, unfortunatley the lady who gave it to me is now in a nursing home , so where the backup keys are she doesnt kno w, as did she forget the code .. LOL, but the safe seems to be a nice looking safe, and will help me lock up some stuff so my roomates friends dont mess with it , so I was wondeirng, if ANY of you are familiar with this safe.. It is by either pro-safe or sdat from what i can find online... neither companies have websites to order new keys. On the safe there is a serial number, and a keypad from 0-9 and an A and B key , i dont wanna have to buy an 80 dollar tubular pick, or spend 90 on a locksmith, if you look at the use reviews for this safe on overstock the 2nd reviewer claims there is a key hold hidden, which i know but she also stated that there is a hidden button or something to that effect used for opening this safe, i found no other info anywhere to back this up , and upon searching this safe online , everywebstie is a retailer that just links back to overstock.com, if you guys have this safe and in your manual there is a universal default code, id love to get it , however i doubt it will be that easy, but again guys if anyone can help me get this thing open , that would be great... or if you could obtain a number to prosafe or sdat so i could try and call em give em my safes serial # and maybe they could mail me a new key ... thanks again. hope to hear some responses as soon as possible

Safe opening discussions are prohibited in the public forums.. that being said:

The safe is probably made in china.. good luck finding the manufacturer... take the safe to your local lockie and have him/her pick it in his "down time".
You doing the driving should save at least 1/2 of the quoted cost. once the safe had been opened it should be easy to reset the combo to something you can remember.
