To set the code: directions say to press red button when safe door is open, but there is no red button! FRUSTRATING!!!

I received my safe today and run into the same frustration. The "instrctions" were a joke. I called Best Choice Products customer service and they informed me that the red button was located on the top area of the inside hinge. Sure enough it was there. It sounds like they have received several calls regarding this issue. Having said this, it looks like a great little, but substancial, safe.

Well lets see if I can remember. It's been awhile since I've done this. 1.) Place key in ignition.2.) turn Ignition switch on and off 10 times. (Don't start) Just to accessory position.3.)You will hear the door locks lock and unlock.4.) Then within 5 seconds press any button on the remote.5.) That's it..... should work. 6.) If you have 2 remotes you will need to press a button on both of them at the same time frame I think.I hope this works. Like I said it's been awhile. Good luck!

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.

This unit only holds one code. I am guessing that what is tripping you up is that for about 20 seconds any key press will activate the garage door number. See vendor site for instructions and Frequently Asked Questions(FAQ) http://www.dominoengineering.com/residential.asp Reprogramming should change the code.

sorry took so long. not sure what happens, batteries haven't died yet but I believe it stays locked. You get 2 keys to manually open safe if batteries die or code is forgotten.

the root cause of the problem seems to be you putting your key inside the safe. ever. why would you do that? ever? i assume you have figured a way around getting the door open, but have you solved the "real" problem yet?

My husband has been fighting with his too for weeks now. He's tried re-setting several times with no luck. We have been manually opening our door ever since we bought this one!

My remote is as shown...Closed Lock (arm), Open Lock (disarm), Person in house (Arm Stay) and Asterick * (Panic button). It probably doesn't matter as long as it is programmed correctly. You may have received a newver version.

I have it put away, I'd have to look. is the lock the red button? I'll check it out when I return this PM Albert

Yes i concur with the others the door must be locked, then press and hold the circled arrow button until it starts........

I cannot get mine to open either. Set it to TREE and then tried quite a few other nearby possibilities... Sending mine back. Bad directions or someone was feeling mischievous!

You have to rotate the the nob counter clockwise to lock it. No code entry is required, So be careful when you close it. Also note the numbers on the buttons are hard to read so you may need a flashlight in low light situations. Good Unit though. Hope this helps.

its not a button, it's a red LED that flashes when you enter the combo / open the safe. The resetting the combo requires the safe to be open.

There should have been a big zip lock plastic bag attached to your handle with your paperwork and 2 keys in it. I can't find my paper work at the moment. Try pressing 159# or 123#. If one of those sets of numbers is right, there should be a series of beeps then a green light will come on. then just turn your handle and open it. If you get it open and the keys are not there I would return the safe.

It seems that I do have to push the open button after entering my code a second time quite a bit now that you mention it. It usually doesn't require re-entering the code. Overall I have been very satisfied with my purchase though. I hope this helps.

Try manually pushing the switch on the left side of the door with the door open. It may be broken.

NO. Only after 4 have been pressed. It give you a RED light Then you have to wait a second then enter correct code. I have 5 of these and love them.
