Safe opening and installation

Safes are one of the most challenging elements in the entire locksmith sector. On one hand, they offer exceptional security and guarantee that our most prized possessions are well protected. On the other hand, the loss of keys or the combination can lead to the loss of those very possessions if the right locksmith is not found.

Although you can find safes at different security levels, all of them are very, very difficult to open by wrong means. That is why, if you ever find yourself in this situation, you should contact a professional locksmith who specialises in safe opening — someone who knows exactly how to open it without putting the contents at risk by resorting to brute force.

Safe installation and opening in Tarragona.

Different opening methods

Every safe is unique, which is why it is essential to have the experience that comes from working with them for many years — knowing each mechanism and method of work. If done incorrectly, a job can take hours or may not even succeed.

At Manel Grau Locksmiths we have more than 10 years of experience opening all types of safe, from basic domestic models to commercial and industrial safes.

There are many opening methods, but only a few guarantee a double success: getting it open while keeping the contents intact. Failing to achieve the latter is worse than not opening it at all. For this reason, depending on the type of safe we encounter, we use the most appropriate method.

Safe installation

In addition to openings, we also offer a safe installation service. We work with all types of safes available on the market — wall-mounted safes are the most common, but we also install floor safes, concealed safes and more.

We work with all types and brands of safe, including models with deposit slots, plinths, fireproof cases, high-security versions and hotel safes. We can also relocate them — dismounting from the original position, adapting any masonry if required, and leaving everything fully operational.

Frequently asked questions about safes

Can you open a safe without the combination?

Yes. We use non-destructive opening techniques whenever possible, although in some cases drilling may be necessary. We work with manufacturers and can contact the official technical service if the model allows it. We always require proof of ownership before proceeding.

What types of safes do you install?

We install wall-recessed and floor-mounted safes, freestanding anchored safes, fire-resistant document safes and security boxes with electronic or biometric opening. We advise you based on your needs and the required level of protection.

What security grade should I require in a safe?

For domestic use, we recommend at least a safe with resistance grade 0 or I according to EN 1143-1. For professional use or valuable jewellery, grade II or III is more appropriate. Insurance companies usually require a minimum grade to cover the contents.

Does safe installation require building work?

Wall-recessed safes do require cutting into the wall, although in plasterboard partitions the work is minimal. Freestanding safes are anchored to the floor or wall with special fixings and no structural work. In both cases, installation is completed the same day.
