Can I Change the Combination on My Gun Safe Lock?

There might be a time when you want to change the combination on your electronic or mechanical gun safe lock.

This could be because of one or more reasons:

  1. You're concerned that someone, like one of your children, has discovered your combination.
  2. You have fired an employee, or one has quit that has the combination to your safe lock.
  3. You have forgotten your combination.
  4. The combination is difficult to remember or is no longer meaningful to you.

It's important to note that you can change the combination on your electronic lock, however you cannot change the combination on a mechanical lock without the help of a certified locksmith. We'll get more into the differences below along with how you can change the combinations of both.

Changing the Combination on a Mechanical Safe Lock

Some safes are equipped with a mechanical safe lock where you need to turn a dial to enter your code. Changing the code on this type of lock must be done by an authorized Liberty Safe dealer or a licensed locksmith.

You can find a list of dealers and locksmiths in your area here.

If you have lost the key to your mechanical lock or never had one to begin with, you'll need to contact your safe dealer for assistance.

Changing the Combination on an Electronic Safe Lock

The process to change the combination on a digital/electronic safe lock is simple in comparison to a mechanical lock. If you have purchased a safe from Liberty Safe equipped with a SecuRam electronic lock, you have likely gone through the code-changing procedure when your safe first arrived.

To change your safe lock combination code with the SecuRam TopLit or BackLit models, you'd simply:

SecuRam Prologic Electronic Gun Safe Lock
  • Press the 0 key six times (you will then hear two beeps)
  • Enter your existing six-digit code (you should then hear two beeps)
  • Enter your new six-digit code (you will hear one beep)
  • Re-enter your new six-digit code (you will hear one more beep)

That's all there is to changing your combination code if you have one of those safe locks! And if you have a ProLogic L01 electronic safe lock, the process is made even simpler because the display screen will walk you through the entire process; just make sure that you have your Super Code or Manager Code available.
