Usually when we mention the term combination lock, the first thing that comes to people’s mind is a safe. However, combination locks used in different kinds of devices.

The reason for this is that they are secure since only the person who knows the code can open the lock. This helps ensure that all of your belongings stay safe and secure at all times.

However, combination locks too need to be replaced after some time. Here’s a look at some of the ways in which you can do so:

Change the Safe Combination

This one can be challenging since it depends on whether the safe combination is in electronic form or not.

What you need to understand is that the change protocols of mechanical locks are a lot more varied because of which they are also a lot more complex than their electrical counterparts. In case you lose the safe combination, you will need assistance from professional locksmiths in order to open the lock.

On the other hand, in case of a digital safe, you can try resetting the lock combination. In order to do so, you will have to enter the programming mode.

Door Lock Combination

Unlike safes, door locks always have an option that allows homeowners to make changes to the combination.

Even a mechanical door lock  needs power supply in order to continue working which is why we suggest that you first cut off the power before proceeding with making changes to the combination lock.

First, you will need to get it removed from the door. After that, the locksmith will remove the back cover to reveal the combination pad.

There are two different sets of pin and both of them have distinct features. The locksmiths will detect the combination pins for current code and move the pins in order to change the combination.

Once this is done, they will put the back cover on and check if the combination still works. After that they will reinstall the door lock.

It’s a lot easier to change the combination of a smart lock since all you need to do is find the reset protocol.

Padlocks

You cannot change the combination of all padlocks. It’s only possible in specific cases. Furthermore, the process of changing the combination varies which is why we suggest that you use help of the internet in order to find out how you can change the combination.
