How to Change the Combination on a Liberty Safe
It's always a good idea to have a durable, reliable safe in your home to protect your valuables. Liberty Safe has been making top-of-the-line safes for years. Owners of any safe are aware that sometimes the combination must be changed for security reasons, so it's important to know how to do so.
Tip
Pick a code that is easy for you remember, but difficult for other to guess. Enter the new code quickly but carefully to ensure you don't inadvertently enter a different code. Always keep the safe open when changing the combination.
Warning
Never give your new master code to anyone you don't want having access to the contents of your safe.
Owners of Liberty safes should be aware that only safes with electronic locks can be changed by the user. Safes with mechanical locks must be taken to an authorized locksmith.
