How to Open a Digital Safe

A digital safe is a device that allows you to secure your heirlooms, jewels and documents. Simply place your contents into the safe and they are secured under your PIN (personal identification number) code away from thieves. Most people prefer a digital safe to a dial safe due to the enhanced security and level of difficulty in cracking the safe. A digital safe is simple to use and, if done correctly, can be opened in a matter of minutes.

      Insert the key into the lock and enter your PIN code. This is the number that you set to use for your safe. If you put in the wrong code, after several attempts it will delay the locking system. For instance, if you enter the wrong PIN code four times, the locking system will not work for five minutes. After five minutes you can retry the code.
