How do I Rekey a Sentry 1100 Safe?

The Sentry 1100 safe is compact and can withstand the heat from a fire up to 1550 degrees Fahrenheit for up to a half hour. Sentry says the fire chest is big enough to store CDs, DVDs, USB drives and important documents. The handle on top of the safe makes it easy to carry from one room to another. The Sentry 1100 comes with a key lock. If you lose the keys, you cannot re-key the lock, but you can contact Sentry for additional keys so you can open the safe. A new key can be ordered online or via mail.
