Changing a mechanical group 2 or group 1 safe lock is not difficult at all. The worst part is taking off the door panel. A professional locksmith is not required, there are even youtube videos on this. You do however need the change key. This video just seems like an upsell for electronic locks that will someday fail and require locksmith entry. If you want an electronic lock I would recommend replacing it every year with a new one. Group 2 s&g mechanical is on every safe I own including a tl30x6.
Yeah,......a mechanical dial is bullet proof,........until someone gets the combination.
Then your schrewed*
My sister in law stold the combination from my father,....my father had it while I was in the hospital.
But after he couldn't produce it.
And everything Al Capone has been happening.
So I need to change out the lock's on all but 1 new safe.
My Liberty first,.....it needs a E-lock.
I have a Liberty safe with a conventional dial combo and a dial key lock. I am about to move my safe many states away and have been told the door contains a relocker. How much jostling and bumping can the safe take without triggering the relocker? Should I move the safe unlocked and the door strapped shut? Or lock it and hope for the best.
I know this is 2 years late. I don't own a liberty cabinet but I doubt they have a glass relocker. Probably a metal plate screwed to the lock body. When someone tries punching the lock the plate is no longer there to hold the relocker. Just take the door cover off the safe and you will see. All you need is a screwdriver. Just be careful because liberty probably uses sheetrock for fire protection, it can be heavy. A lot of times on cheap gun cabinets this will be your back panel covering the bolt work. Anyway you are probably fine leaving it in place if it is not a glass relocker. If it is a glass relocker you can usually deactivate them with a cotter pin. I would not recommend moving a safe with the door unlocked.
