Can you open and close with no batteries?

For the "electronic" version of this safe, the only way to open it is with the keypad, and that needs batteries to operate. You can access the battery pack with the safe closed and locked (it's behind the keypad which comes out), so you don't need to worry about getting locked out. There is now a "combination" version of this safe and that appears to need no batteries at all, but that's not the one I have so I can't be sure.

This is a NanoVault product. There are no batteries. This unit locks with a key.

Nope. It's got a spring-load lever on the side of it. No batteries required.

hey - no, there is not. We leave it open when she isn't using it... but that is inconvenient.... plus, it really uses batteries fast. otherwise, it has totally changed her life. recommend it

It can be BUT buy the adapter and you don't have to worry about batteries. I have found that opening it manually will in time break some of the teeth in the cogs and then it will not open automatic. But I must ask why would you want an automatic if you would open it manually. I love mine and I am on my 2nd one.

I don't believe that you can. I always remove my batteries when not in use. It helps you locate it in the dark and uses very little power.

As far I as I can see, it cannot. I see no easy way to open for battery access. The enclosed booklet with product specs. says it has a rechargeable lithium battery, but no type, if you would need to replace it. That aside, I find this extremely useful in teaching preschoolers. I am no longer hoarse at the end of every week.

If I'm not misstaking, you must use a small PH1 tip to open the battery compartment. I trashed mine because of the batteries didn't last very long, and it was such a pain to use. I don't recommend this item for any home owner.

No, it does not need batteries. It is a manual clacking spring alarm that goes off when the door is opened.

Yes, it is very easy to open and close with only one hand. Just pull up and turn to open, will latch itself when you swing it closed.

Quite easily. The automatic locking feature can be easily retracted (just like a deadbolt in a door), and the manual feature with the opener requires only a tug on the provided rope. You can also purchase a battery backup to open the door when the power is out. It's an excellent system.

Yes, unless you hold the button down when you are closing it. This requires you to use two hands while closing, though.

The Open and Close buttons require the item to also have working batteries. Without batteries, you must manually open and close the lid.

No, you DO NOT need to unscrew anything to insert the batteries. There is a cover on the end, where the ON/OFF button is, this cover slides off to insert the batteries.

Yes-manually ... there is a red 'T' handle on a short piece of rope you pull to disengage the chain ... you then open and close the door like you did before you had the opener attached. It is easy to re-set once the power is restored. My wife just had to do this this past weekend when the power was out and I was at the Fire Hall.
