How to Change the Combination for a 5401D Key Storage Box

The Master Lock 5401D is a metal wall-mount key storage security safe sometimes referred to as a key storage box. It holds and protects as many as five keys at a time. The 5401D has a flip style storage compartment door held securely shut by a multiple-dial combination lock hidden behind a weather-resistant shutter door. Additionally, the safe has a reset lever inside. The lever allows you to change the four-digit combination used to open the safe to any number combination.
