Is the combination resettable, and will the safe accept a 12 digit combination?

Yes, the combination is easily resettable. No, it will not except a 12 digit combination.

To the best of my knowledge you cannot change the combination.Also, both the key and combination are needed - the key is NOT an override. I use the key first, then enter the combination. Lynn K.

No, the keys are not interchangeable. I ended up labeling the bottom & top keys. Yes, the keys will remove when the safe is unlocked.

I tried to reset the combination but the directions state that the factory sets the combination and the user cannot change it.

Yes you can, however once a number is used whether alone or in combo, you can not use it again . No backup method, forget the combo, it's going to be a problem. Love the safe, perfect for what it's needed for.

It can only hold one. Also, the order in which the number is entered is not important. So if the combination is 1234, 3214 or 4132 will also open the box.

Combo order isn't sensitive, so as long as you hit all the numbers it will open. We did have one problem: somehow one of the numbers stuck when the spring behind it got wonky. There is a handy "fixer" guy at the office who fixed it. But, beware it can be iffy.

Theoretically you can, if you keep the combinations set at 000, 000. Unfortunately if the dials move whatsoever while in transit, they're would be no way for your friend to decifer how to get the code back to 000, 000 without some assistance. I would avoid the combination lock for your friend if possible.

Yes you can set the combination to whatever you like. It has to be 5 digits.

I really do not think so - when you change the code, you actually pull pins from the inside of the unit. You can adjust how many digits the code has by inserting dummy pins. But the order of the numbers is not part of the code - just that all numbers are pressed. That is, code 1-2-3 is the same as 3-2-1...the numbers effectively "stay in" when you press them until you turn the knob or clear the code (the "C" button is not very clearly marked.

The default code is 0000 if the box is lock you have to use the code you set it for if the box is open you can reset the code to any numbers you want by moving the little pin sticking up in the center inside the box.moving the little

The unit is mechanical so it really only hold one combination. But the combination can be entered in any order. For instance, if you set your combination for something like 1489, you can enter it in any pattern you like (8941, 4891, and so on). You can also push any number twice. so if it's easier to remember that number as some ones phone number 814-9841, it will work also.

I went back to the manual to answer this. U can enter as little as a 3 digit combination up to a maximum of 6. But they are better described as inputs since each input can also be a combination of 2 or all 4 buttons pressed together at the same time. So it is pretty impossible to get into this thing if u don't know the combo. As far as invalid entries go, it just beeps quickly 3 times and the LED light blinks red instead of green when the wrong inputs are entered. U can try again immediately without having to clear anything. Takes like 1 second and u can try again. This thing rocks.

I believe that the initial combination is all zero's (000). The combination can only be set with the "key door" unlocked. You then have to turn the last wheel to the left which does not have numbers so that the word "reset" is in line with the combination notch. At this point with the key door closed you should be able to reset the combination and then open the key door. If you do not remember what the combination was when you received the lock you may have to contact Kidde and return the lock to them so they can reset the combination for you.

inside the safe itself, I think right under the door there is a little red button. Click on that button. it will allow you to reset. Then type in the code. Let me know if you have any trouble.

You can set it and you can change it. I know that it can be at least 6 digits, I haven't tried more than that. Wonderful safe.

The safe does come with a key override to use should the electronics fail. Thank you, Securitybase.com 800-616-0213
