I accidentally locked my Safe without putting the cover on

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!

I was learning how my safe worked and accidentally locked it without putting the cover back on. Now the pin the releases the latch cannot be pressed in. How do I unlock my safe? Am I screwed?

Yep, that's gonna be tricky to fix.

I'll send you a private message so we don't publish instructions in public that bad guys could use to their advantage.

This is way cheaper than using a locksmith!
