How to Reset the Password on a Brink's Fire Safe

A Brinks fire safe can keep important documents safe, even in the event of a house fire. Like many other Brinks safes, the fire safes have an electronic keypad that's used for the safe combination. This combination should be reset periodically to ensure maximum security. All Brinks safes are designed to be user-friendly, so the process to reset a combination is a quick task that requires no special tools or hardware.
