Locked Out of Your Safe?
A safe is a lockable secure box constructed to safeguard valuable possessions against theft and/or potential threat of fire and other natural disasters. Some people will need to use their safe on a daily basis, especially if they are a business owner; others may only need to open their safe occasionally or during an emergency. You can never be too prepared for a lockout emergency, no matter how often you use your safe. If you keep your mechanical key with you for convenient access, there’s a risk of losing it; if your safe has a digital locking mechanism, there is a risk of forgetting your access code if you don’t use them often. Even with biometric access, which is by far the safest and most convenient locking solution, it is not immune to scanner malfunctions.
