"Going to a mechanical lock is the only way to be truly safe. If you must use a digital locking mechanism, the best way to keep your belongings safe is to acquire a new digital lock and have a locksmith install it on your safe."
“The only way to guarantee no one will get access to your safe combo from the safe manufacturer (for an electronic lock) is to remove the serial numbers from your safe and your paperwork. Change the factory code yourself or hire a locksmith to do it,” said Tony Simon, a 30-year locksmith and founder of Diversity Shoot. “I also suggest safes with a mechanical dial over an electronic safe. Mechanical safes only use one combination.”"
