Cracking a safe open because of a lost combination or malfunction has made a lot of advancements in the last 25 years.
Safe locks, especially those used at least twice a day, should be disassembled, cleaned and lubricated every 18 months.
Every moving part in the safe door should be inspected for loose screws and bolts and excessive wear.
Many safes give fair warning, sometimes weeks in advance, before there is a complete lockout and crisis to follow.
If you notice your safe is harder to open, and continues to be more difficult to unlock, it is a good idea to have your safe serviced before you are totally locked out.
