Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Safe removal costs vary depending on the size and weight of the safe, its location (ground floor, basement, upper storey), and access difficulty. Small domestic safes are the most affordable to remove. Heavy safes or those requiring Hiab crane access cost more. Contact us for a free, no-obligation quote specific to your situation.
Yes — this is one of our specialisms. Our Hiab crane vehicles and specialist rigging equipment allow us to remove safes from basements, upper floors, vaults, and tight-access locations that other companies cannot handle. We carry out a site survey for particularly challenging extractions.
We dispose of old safes responsibly. Depending on condition, safes may be decommissioned and recycled, or in some cases refurbished for resale. We ensure all disposal complies with UK regulations. You do not need to arrange anything — we handle it all from start to finish.
Absolutely. Our safe relocation service covers moves between properties as well as within the same building. We collect your safe using our specialist vehicles, transport it securely, and reinstall and anchor it at the new location. We handle safe relocation of every type across the UK.
Yes. Forgotten combinations are one of the most common reasons people contact us. Our safe locksmiths use a range of non-destructive techniques to recover access wherever possible. For mechanical locks, we may be able to obtain the combination from the lock manufacturer using proof of ownership. For electronic safes we attempt override procedures before considering any drilling.
First, try a fresh set of batteries — low battery is the most common cause of electronic safe failures. If that does not resolve the issue, do not repeatedly enter incorrect codes as this may trigger a lockout penalty. Contact our team and we will advise you or arrange a callout. We provide digital safe override service and electronic safe fault diagnosis across the UK.
Yes. We operate a 24-hour emergency safe opening service across the UK from our four regional depots. Response times vary by location but we always aim to reach you as quickly as possible. For the fastest response, call us directly on 0161 832 2777 rather than using the contact form.
Yes. Total Safes carries comprehensive insurance for all our services including safe removal, relocation, transport, and safe opening. Our team are directly employed — not subcontracted — which means consistent standards and full accountability on every job.
