crappy mechanism. You can budge it a little and it will eventually break open

You have to move the computation number. If it is on the computation it won't close.

Did you try the obvious?1) Enter combo. 2) Close and hold door. 3) Spin wheels. 4) Celebrate!

I had a hard time with that as well. There is an answer. I believe that I found it on the instructions. I don't recall, but I think it was simply to either have the code showing when you try to close it OR the opposite, spin the code away then it will close.. Not much help, but one of these works. I had a difficult time with both of my locks . I had to throw them away because the dials would not spin. In fact, I could not get one of them off a door knob even when taking the handle off. It had to be cut off. It made me wonder if these were knock-offs or the real deal. I'd like to try a genuine Master lock from the company to see if there is the same issue, but I don't dare to waste the money or the time on one just for the test. The door closing is simple. The dials are impossible if they get stuck. Even my genius, mr. fixit brother tinkerer could not get one to spin.

Don't change the combination while it has been open, maybe? I don't have any problem and I have 2 Home Health Aids that come on 3 visits per day every day of the week. Since I got this lock box, replacing one I had made myself, no one is telling me of a problem with it.

Loosen that screw looking thing on the side that shows a lock and unlock then slide the cover open. I struggled with this also, but sliding the cover is the key.

unlocking mine i only press the four key numbers and works well. I only use that button for locking and turning. I guess you touched the button by mistake and it open - that i have not seen. I will try. If it's a new lock it could be a defect. I would try clsoing and opening and repeating what you did to see if you duplicate the failure and if happens again ...return it.

i just tried it through a closed door...it doesn't work. i always keep the door cracked though, and i'm able to get it to work through the crack in the door.

I have this model door closer and it closes perfectly - complete closes, quietly and quickly, with a soft close. Ours does not keep the door open, but I do not know if it has the ability to do so.

I only can respond that I now have 2 buttons to close and open my garage door. My regular one and my garage butler. Hope this helps.

I Find if you leave the vent top open it seems to close easier than when it is down but I too notice the same issue. I hope this helps

Mine has a little play in the latching. You should be able to just insert the key and turn but may need to press down slightly to release. I have had some trouble with my combination #s to unlock though. I use a combination of 2 or 3 #s pushed at the same time for one of my combinations. This sometimes does not work if I push the sequence too quickly. I do like being able to use more than one finger stroke to equal one entry. I.E. #1 and #2 pushed simutaniously to equal one #.Unless there is quite a bit of gap it sounds like about the same as mine. I have two and the second one does have more gap than the last one I purchased. Mine has a little play in the latching.

Make sure that there is nothing in the way of the bolts before shutting the door and turned the handle counter clockwise after shutting and that should work. and yes the bolts should be inside when it is open for you to be able to close the door. If the bolts are out try punching in your combination for them to go back in if not you can use your safe key. To get the bolts back in.I hope that this helps.

Nope...either leave door open, or key in the code. Just like a hotel door (Kind of a pain at first, but you get used to it fast, plus it is better than keys.

Try unlocking the doorknob (or locking, whichever is the opposite of how it came) Hope this helps!

I've always found the locking part to be tricky...but have always managed to get it to work by doing something like this(best I can recall): place the key in the lock, turn the key to the unlock position, slide the lock onto the bolt (while still having the key in the UNlock position), then release the key from the unlock position and remove the key. Give it a shot and let me know.Barry

You have to use the key to lock or unlock it. No way to accidently close it or lock it without a key.

i have not this problem, the door instructions were very confusing and actually had to redo what we thought was right. Maybe look into how it was assembled.

Try shutting the door VERY hard. Common issue on this brand. Otherwise a great oven.

I have difficulty closing the battery compartment door myself. You have to kind of push down on the door while holding the little latch back at the same time. I've not had the camera long enough to discern different sizes of batteries, but I'm gonna take the other folks' advice and try different batteries when I change them out.

We had a bag that was a tad more difficult than the rest. We just kept working at it....get the zipper under the lock as close as possible and keep pushing down. Eventually it gives....ours did and it works fine. Work the key back and forth locking and unlocking. Hope this helps you. Michelle
