I accidentally dropped my only key in the drawer and shut it. Any suggestions on how to get the drawer open without buying another key?

The system is magnetic. Frankly, we did not have any problems opening the cabinets where the lock was mounted, even with no key. I just didn't find these locks very useful at locking. I would suggest using a strong magnet to get it open. (In our home, we left it to the strong toddler, but that resulted in a broken lock :) )

A regular magnet should work. Not a frig magnetic, something a little stronger.

If you have a strong enough magnet on your fridge, it should work. I tried using a magnetic kitchen timer and it worked, but my son's letter magnets aren't strong enough. I also have a magnetic stud finder that can do the job.

Another option is a normally closed micro-switch with a lever or hinge roller on it. mounted so the lever is moved by the side/top of the drawer. When the switched is used this way it takes minimal pressure for the switch to go to an open state. try Alliedelec.com

You can open it with just the combination. Key is just added security, don't use it myself. what if you hide it and forget where it is?

Have you contacted the supplier for additional keys. I am not sure what to do in this situation. Good Luck!

There are two keys each for a specific keyhole. Place the right key in each and turn. Should open. Hope this helps.

No, there is only one key, you just have to make sure it's in the right position to open the cover, I have had to play with it a lot to get it in the right position. Keep trying, it will work!

I had the same problem. I actually broke one of the slides trying to get the drawer in. Had to order a replacement from the manufacturer. It will work but I suggest patience.

I have the same problem. There doesn't seem to be a solution to keep it from slipping out without limiting the function of the drawer. Just open it carefully.:)

I had the same issue, but I don't remember how I eventually got them out. See if there is something that needs to be pushed up on the bottom or if the drawer needs to be raised up to be taken out. There was a trick to it--I remember that.

Well I did. A key is built in and there is no room for the electronic parts. Your old key will not fit in.

the drawers lock so only one at a time can be opened so if you do not close it all the way and try to open the other drawer it will not open...

Mine just arrived and the keys were absolutely locked inside the box. The latch rests up against a piece of sheet metal to hold it shut. I applied the universal solution to every situation: Force. Pulled it apart; the metal inside barely deflected; I bent it back. Still, how the heck could this happen?

I did something similar, but to make sure I just ordered the two lock with the same key mold. Also you may contact the seller and he can help you get the same item to open with the same key. Additional keys can be obtained at a local locksmith or key duplicate center.Hope this can help you.

You have to get a replacement from Stack-on. If you still have the paperwork that came with the safe it included an order form for new keys. In absence of that, you will have to contact Stack-On.

Try getting a smaller Phillips screwdriver to get it open, which you can find at any hardware store

Hopefully you had not locked the master key in the safe. Because the master key opens it without code. (The knob keys opens it with code.)

Ask the seller, or, fill out a form On the amazon customer service site. Depending upon how long You have had the drawer, they may just send a new one.
