Where is the insert for the back-up key? or What is the initial code to open the safe?

I do not have a clue where the key insert is, I've looked everywhere but can't find it. I installed it before I looked for it so I have a feeling it may be in the back, although I'm not sure how that could work. The initial code is 12345678#

This is the one without a standalone insert key (I don't know if that means it's new or old). You have to hit the function key for the insert key to work on this model. Hope that helped!

Open the safe with your key and replace the battery. I'be had mine for a couple months and the original battery still opens the safe. I use my key most of the time.

I ordered this for a third party on a corporate account. I'm not familiar with the safe on a personal level. I'm sorry I couldn't be more help.

I just went & opened mine, just to be sure. It was a piece of cake. Open the safe, push down the tab at the top of the battery compartment & pull it out & down. It's pretty simple. It catches at the top & the bottom just has a slot it sits in.

No. At least the model I purchased is combo only--and no key...but works quite well. However, the manual included covers a few models (some with combo + key) and it states "This safe requires combo + key. It is not possible to open if you lose key." So if you are looking at a version slightly different than mine which requires a key, you'll have to do both. I didn't want that option as I'd figure I'd either lose the key or get tired of carrying it around on my keychain.

You need a working key (most recent in use). not necessarily the original key.

You have to pry off the plastic oval piece that is between the keypad and the round knob that you turn to open the safe. I used a sharp kitchen knife with a thin blade to slip behind the plastic piece. It will pry off.

The safe comes with the key that can open it if the keypad is inoperational.

Either or would work.. Key or pin code. I personally use the pin (key pad ) entry. And the key for the safe. It is a nice unit for the cost.

I didn't need to put in any code. There is no code number on the case or on the disk. I just put the disk in and it loaded without any problems.

I asked my son, who got the safe as a gift...he believes there was a number you'd get when registering the safe online that would be used as proof of ownership if you lost a key...but since he can't find his paperwork......sorry. We can't be sure what phone # or site you'd use.

Yes along with a key. I would recommend you buy something else. This really is an unreliable safe.

I can't but a good lock smith can. Take in any documentation so that they can determine the key code and then duplicate it. It's a 3 digit code on the back of the key. For future reference, write this down because this will allow the lock smith to quickly get you a new key.

I don't know where the keyhole is but you need to check youtube. Search how to open a safe with a potato.

4 double A batteries.If for some reason the batteries go dead and the safe is locked.You need a 9 volt battery to open it with the default code.Do not lose the safe's information or default code.You touch the 9 volt battery to the location marked on the front of the safe and enter the default code, not the code you put it.hope all of this helps.
