Vegas Safe Opening, Done Right
Lost combination, dead keypad, jammed bolt, inherited safe, drilled-out competitor mess — we open it without destroying it. Vault-grade work for residences, businesses, and estates.
How we open safes
Five non-destructive methods, in order of preference. Drilling is always last and always owner-authorized.
2. Scoping
Boroscope inside the lock to align the gates visually. Pairs with manipulation; works on Group-2 and many electronic locks.
3. Autodialer
Motorized device dials every combination until the safe opens. Patient, predictable, non-destructive.
4. Dial Reading
Direct reading of the dial to recover a forgotten combination. You walk away with the combo.
5. Controlled Drilling
Last resort. Drilled at the manufacturer\'s engineered weak point, repaired after. Owner authorization required in writing.

From $80Why Vegas customers choose us over other locksmiths
Las Vegas has dozens of locksmith brands. Here's what makes safe owners and estates specifically call us — and what to verify before hiring anyone else:
Most Vegas locksmiths reach for the drill first. We don't. About 85% of our safe openings are completed without drilling — manipulation, scoping, autodialer, or dial reading. Ask any locksmith you call: "What non-destructive methods will you attempt first?" The answer separates a safe specialist from a lockout service.
Nevada NRS 655 requires every locksmith to hold a Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department permit. We publish our number; ask if you've heard a "Yes, we're licensed" without seeing the actual number.
We're owner-trained on AMSEC, Liberty, Browning, SentrySafe, Cannon, Hollon, Fort Knox, Mesa, Hayman, and antique Mosler — including S&G, LaGard, Sargent, and SecuRam electronic lock platforms. Most generalist locksmiths know two or three.
$150 service call, waived on jobs over $250. Safe opening typically $80–$220. Drilling +$200–$500, quoted in writing before work begins. No $19 bait pricing that becomes $400 on arrival.
You reach Vladimir or a named Armor technician — not a national call-center routing your job to whichever generic locksmith bid lowest this week.
Pre-1960 Mosler, Diebold, Hall floor safes need manipulation training, not destruction. We hold chain-of-custody documentation and document every opening for the executor's records.
Three questions to ask any safe locksmith before hiring: "What's your LVMPD permit number?" · "Will you try non-destructive methods first?" · "Have you serviced my specific safe brand?"
Common questions
Do you drill the safe?
Only as a last resort and only with your written authorization. We default to manipulation, scoping, or autodialer. About 85% of our safe openings are non-destructive.
How much does safe opening cost in Las Vegas?
Typical residential safe opening: $80–$220 plus our $150 service call (waived on jobs over $250). Vault and commercial work is quoted on inspection.
How long does it take?
Average 30–90 minutes. Manipulation can take longer on antique safes; modern electronic keypad replacement is often under 45 minutes.
Will the safe still be usable after?
Yes. Non-destructive openings preserve full safe function. Drilled openings are repaired — typically within 24 hours — and the safe restored to its original rating.
Do you open hotel safes?
Yes — with property authorization. We work with Strip, Downtown, and Convention-area hotel security teams.
