Dont need the security aspect of the safe. Do i have to set up or use the combo to open and close the safe?

Sorry, I don't know. This was a gift for someone else and I can't get hold of him to ask.

you do the first time. but if you dont want to do your combonation everytime you open it you can leave the dial on the last number of combo and it will stay unlocked.

Yes. The safe comes with instructions showing you how to set up your own combination, which you can change at any time.

I think it adds an unnecessary step for what you're looking for because putting in the code does not open the padlock. It just opens the key storage area. To open the padlock itself, you have to open the key area and then release the padlock mechanically. I would just buy a regular, sturdy padlock.

Yes you can, however once a number is used whether alone or in combo, you can not use it again . No backup method, forget the combo, it's going to be a problem. Love the safe, perfect for what it's needed for.

No they don't. Wish they did :) other than that the safe seems to work fine. No issues with opening it.

Hopefully you had not locked the master key in the safe. Because the master key opens it without code. (The knob keys opens it with code.)

Yes....you can by a cable with a lock also from amazon. We bought a 6 footer that loops thru predrilled "mounting" holes in the back of the safe, then looped the cable through one of the holes in the metal bed frame. We looped it so that the lock would be inside the safe, and away from someone trying to pick it, so we wouldn't have to carry around an extra key. Yes, someone can dismantle the bed to steal the safe but they would have to walk out with both the safe AND the metal bedframe tied together by the looping cable, which would be more of a hassle than any thief would likely want.

your pass-code is permanent till you change it. unlike hotel safes, you do not need to put in passcode when you close it. You just close the safe 7 punch in any number other than your code to lock it.

The safe I received had the combination preset with no instructions on how to change it but I have read that it is possible with this model... I am not going to attempt that.

These do not have any extra safety lock. Just a light press down and turn to open.

I would not buy it. The combination pad stopped working after two months. If you don't need the combo but plan on using the key then it's a good safe. It's about 10 inches by 6 inside.

For the "electronic" version of this safe, the only way to open it is with the keypad, and that needs batteries to operate. You can access the battery pack with the safe closed and locked (it's behind the keypad which comes out), so you don't need to worry about getting locked out. There is now a "combination" version of this safe and that appears to need no batteries at all, but that's not the one I have so I can't be sure.

Ypu dont need one, just turn the safe on its left side and jiggle it. It will pop right open.

I didn't receive a key of any kind, however you can register the combination to the safe on a secure website. This will allow you to access the combination in case you forget or lose the combination.

I own two Stack-On Safes, haven't experienced "time-out" on either one. Like others have said ... use the key.

Just closing it should lock it, but you may want to check the "security level" settings. There is high, low, and off. If it's "off" there won't be any security. The security level can by set by clicking the button with a lock under it.

There is only four buttons so you quickly become used to the pattern of buttons you need to press. I have tested this in the middle of the night, it took seconds to open the safe. Very good safe, there is a LED light that shines once it opens. Pick a 3 or 4 digit code and you will be good.
