Floor safes in older houses

Mount Pleasant safes are often older floor or closet safes in houses on the hill. Stairs are the access. We bring a smaller kit and we do not assume a truck-bed removal. There is no freight route.

On this visit

Older floor safes on the hill are often painted into a closet. We do not tear out the closet to reach the dial. Photograph the dial and any label you can see. We try to open it without drilling first.

Frequent questions

The dial spins freely. What does that mean?

Tell us. A free dial can mean a failed lock, and it changes the method. Do not force it.

Can you haul it to the shop?

Usually we work in the house. These stairs are a bad removal route.
