Does this combination lock require the combination to be set when locking?

Wow, thanks for asking this question. I never thought of that, and that fact that the combination has to be set to close the lock helped me choose not to buy this lock. Thank you.

Yes-the combination you choose needs to be set then moved at least one chamber to lock.

No you cant set it. The combination is pre-set. It is a good lock. I have my generator shed locked with it.Good strong lock and holds up well in the weather.

No. You have to hit one button and then thumb turn the deadbolt to lock it.

Yes, it can be changed numerous times. There is a pin that comes with the lock that you need to insert into the same hole that the end of the lock goes into. It's a hole within a larger hole, if that makes sense. The lock needs to be open of course. But once the pin is inserted, you set it to the combo you want and then remove the pin- which sets the new combo.

There are simple instructions - once the lock portion is removed, there are some rings that can be rotated to set the new combination. It does not come with a key. If you forget the key, grab a sledgehammer.

Yes you can. You can actually set the combos on "non lock" so you don't have to worry if the the numbers are changed in error.

No i always lock mine. I think it tells you to do that in the instructions.

No. Each set of three comes with two duplicate keys that will only open the locks in that package.

Yes. The safe comes with instructions showing you how to set up your own combination, which you can change at any time.

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

As long as you leave the key in the unlocked position the combination works the safe perfectly. I often put mine in the unlocked position and remove the key if I will be accessing the contents of the safe on a regular basis for a day or two.

There are five "buttons" and you can set the combination to be any sequence of one to all five. That's plenty for security. If you mean, "can you enter more than one combination?" the answer is no. I have had many pistol safes over the years and this is the best one I've found. I drilled and added a security cable for use in a vehicle.

If you already tried opening it with the default combo 000-000, and it still refuses to open, then you'll have to try to remember any possible # of combo(s) you may have set it to. Can you think of a familiar number you may have used to set the lock(s) and start from there by trying every combo possible with that familiar number?

I don't use the combination to the locks. This case is far from secure. I just use it for back and forth from the range. Good luck..

It comes with a lock and the lock has to be made for the unit (the unit has a place where the lock is attached). So, no, random combination lock just wouldn't work at all, there's nothing to attach it to.

The combination is set from behind the number buttons. its very easy. Just make it a combination you can remember.

I'm pretty sure the combination that comes with the lock is set and cannot be changed.
