    Default Why I'll never buy a push button lock on a safe

    YOU are the first responder. Police, fire and medical are SECOND responders.
    When seconds count, the police are mere minutes away...
    Gun registration is gun confiscation in slow motion.

    Or prewear them like that and then change the code!

    Someone would have to try all 36 permutations of 4 digit combos that had a 3, 4, and 9 in them. They probably would try 3944 many times.

    They wouldn't even try 5555.

    I just don?t like relying on anything that takes batteries.

    Also, maybe wash your hands every once in a while?

    I'm seeing wear/polishing, not dirt.

    And yhea, batteries are even a bigger issue.

    Heck, I had no idea that the push button locks had a backdoor on them!

    I'm wondering, was anyone aware of this backdoor? As I stated, I didn't know about it.

    Not overly surprising that they would comply with a request from law enforcement if they provide a valid search warrant.

    It is slightly amusing that getting into the safe seems easier than unlocking an iPhone through Apple.

    But the warrant wasn't for Liberty Safe company... so they had no legal requirement to comply with it... they gave up the info voluntarily.

    Even better is that people have proof that Liberty Safe refused to give safe owners this "backdoor" code when they locked themselves out of their safe, telling them there is nothing they can do.

    1. Remove any S/N on the outside of the safe.

    2. Buy a used safe, so it's not tied to your address/name.

    The problem isn't that a safe has a keypad.
    The problem is that a safe has a functionally deficient keypad.

    The keypad on my safe allows you to set two user 8-digit codes in addition to the 8-digit master code.
    I use all three 8-digit codes randomly, all numbers get used.
