Safes can refuse to open for one of many reasons. Regardless of the cause, the goal here remains the same; understand what must be done to access the contents. Yes, your safe isn’t opening. However, this is a symptom and not a diagnosis. To open it up again, the exact nature of the issue has to be determined. Saying this, here is some troubleshooting advice you can use to help resolve the problem.
If you’re lucky enough, the reasoning behind the failure to open could be very straightforward. The safe might utilise a key and at some point, you may have broken it off in your lock. Should this prove to be the case, a simple removal job will set things right. Afterwards, chances are that an entirely new key will have to be created. Alternatively, if you use an electronic based lock, the batteries might need to be replaced, or else you can’t use the code to enter.
When jammed internals or detached bolt works are at fault, you can assess both when attempting to shift the safe handle to unlock it. You know full well that it won’t open, but if your handle spins properly, then there’s something wrong with the door’s bolt works. If the handle does move, but fails to go far enough, the bolts are most likely jammed.
