Installation

WARNING To prevent structural damage and possible collapse of the building:

Do not cut or alter studs to fit the Safe.

If the wall the Safe is to be installed in is a load bearing wall, professional installation is required.

Note: The instructions below apply only to

installation in a wall with wood studs. Installation

involving a different type of wall will require other

procedures or professional installation.

1. Choose a wall in which to mount the Safe. A wall

that does not border the outside of the structure

will provide an added layer of security. The four

Screws are for mounting in concrete or masonry.

If you are going to mount the Safe on another

surface, you must supply the appropriate hardware.

Mounting

Holes

Figure A

2. There are pre-drilled holes in each side of the Wall

Safe meant for mounting between two wall studs-see

Figure A. Before mounting or drilling, make certain

that the space the Safe will be mounted in is of

sufficient depth and width to encase the Wall Safe.

WARNING! Verify that the installation

location has no hidden utility lines before

cutting, drilling, or driving screws.

3. Open the Safe by using the included key. Install

4 “AA” batteries aligned with the markings in

the battery compartment. Set up a pass code,

as explained in the Operation Instructions.

4. Wall studs are generally located at 16" intervals,

center stud to center stud. Use a Stud Finder

(not included) to locate existing studs. If the

existing studs are not located at 16" intervals,

use wood blocks or top and bottom support

brackets (not included) to support the Wall Safe.

5. Use a piece of paper to create a template using the

back of the Wall Safe. Once you have created the

template, set it at the desired space on the wall. Use

a carpenter’s level to set the template evenly in place.

6. Make certain the work area is free of furniture

and any items that may be damaged by dust

from drilling. Turn off the circuit breaker for the

area you are working in to avoid electrocution.

7. Hammer a nail into the center of the wall section

to be removed. Use a drywall saw or jig saw

to cut out the section of wall as outlined by the

template. Depending on the depth of the Safe

in relation to the depth of walls, you may need

to cut through two walls – the wall nearest you

and the one behind it. Use the nail as a handle

when pulling out the cut portion of the wall.

8. Situate the Safe in its intended position and

draw marks through the four mounting holes

onto the studs. Remove the Safe and use those

marks to predrill pilot holes for the Screws.

9. Set the Safe in place. If it does not fit

snugly, use shims to wedge it in place.

Shims can be nailed to the wall studs.

10. Thread the Screws into place.

holes in the ends of each Shelf.

light up when the Wall Safe is ready to be opened.

4. When the green light goes on, turn

the knob to open the Wall Safe.

5. If the green light does not go on, and the

yellow light continues to blink, this indicates

that the wrong code was entered. Wait

20 seconds to input the pass code.

Using the Override Key

If the batteries have not been installed or are worn

out, open the safe using one of the Override Keys.

1. Locate the Memory Button on the inside of the Door.

2. Using a blunt tip such as the tip of a screwdriver

or pen, push and release the Memory Button.

3. When you hear a “beep”, enter a new pass code.

Note: The new pass code may have between one

and nine digits, followed by either the A or B button.

4. A long “beep” will signify that your code

has successfully been entered.

5. The Wall Safe will automatically enter a

lockout period after three attempts to use the

wrong code within five minutes. The Wall

Safe will not accept input during this period.

The lockout period will last for one hour.
