SOURCE: batteries are dead can't open safe

I had the same problem. We finally located where the batteries were hidden. They were below the keypad, There is a silver, plastic cover that slides to the right to expose the 4 AA batteries. Hope this helps you.

SOURCE: Sentry Safe (DSW3607 Model) Won't Open

I finally ignored the poorly-written instructions for programming a personal code and simply entered the factory code first and then pressed the prog/enter code button.  The safe opened.  The instructions tell you to push the prog/enter code first and then enter the factory code or personal code to open the safe.  Wrong!  Do it my way should this problem happen to you.

Executive safe CS-2 beep all the time with ready led switched ON
Question moved for Cars and Trucks Category.

Beeps are always low battery power. It is still under warranty so contact them direct. I did find this though for another make.
My electronic lock is continuously beeping, or makes 2 beeps when I try to enter the code what is wrong with my safe? The lock is in lock out. Lock out is a security feature that is activated when an incorrect code is entered multiple times. To resolve the issue do not remove the batteries, walk away from the safe and do not push any buttons for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, if you know the code you can key it in to the lock and open the safe. If you do not know it, you will need to contact us to obtain the over ride code. You are welcome to call our office if you have any questions about your Gardall products.

MODEL CS-2, Security Safe with Electronic Combination Lock
  • Solid Steel Pry Resistant Door and Body.
  • Concealed Hinges For Extra Security.
  • Two Live Locking Bolts.
  • Electronic Combination Lock.
  • Three to Eight Digit Programmable Combination.

How can i open a locked safe?
Legally, I hope! You can call or write the manufacturer for a special code or instructions. They may be reluctant to help unless you can provide sufficient identification. Here is their support website:

How to unlock a cathedral electronic safe ea25
After opening the electronic safe (with the pre-set factory code of 159B) locate the small red button on the
inside of the door near the hinge.
2. Press the red button and then release it, you will hear a beep. DO NOT SHUT THE DOOR UNTIL YOU HAVE CONFIRMED THAT YOUR NEW SECURITY CODE HAS BEEN ENTERED CORRECTLY.
3. With the door open, enter your own personal security code, which can be 3- 8 digits long, and confirm your new code by pressing the letter “B” on the electronic touch pad. Before you close the door, try the new security code to make sure the lock release the knob so you can turn it and retract the live action locking bolts.
If the code fails, go through steps 1-3 again. If the code works successfully, then you should lock the safe. When you open the safe in the future enter the security code you have set followed by the letter “B” and turn the knob.

If the incorrect security code is entered 3 times you will have an automatic lockout for 20 seconds before you can try your code again. If the incorrect security code is entered 3 additional times there will be a 5- minute lockout before the code can be tried again.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
This safe uses 4- AA batteries. Under normal use, batteries will last about 1 year. When the battery is low, a red light will come on warning you that the battery is low. To test the batteries, enter your security code. If the batteries are low the red light located in the middle of the top of the keypad will start to flash.

To replace the batteries, open the safe door with your security code and turn the knob. Push the batteries cover plate, which is located on the back of the door, and replace the old batteries.
YOU MUST PROGRAME YOUR SECURITY CODE AFTER YOU REPLACE THE BATTERIES. SEE STEPS 1- 3 UNDER “ENTERING YOUR SECURITY CODE”.
TROUBLE KEY
A “Trouble key” has been provided in case you forget or lose your security code. Remove the small central panel from the front of the faceplate. Insert the key and turn it counter clockwise. Then turn the knob on the door towards the right. This will manually open your safe. If you lose your key, you may purchase a replacement key by referencing the serial number located under the central panel by the lock.
MAINTENANCE FOR KEY AND ELECTRONIC SAFE
If the door of the safe starts to rub on the door frame, open the door per the instructions above. By the door hinges you will find a threaded stem. Use an Allen wrench to tighten the threaded stem. This will help realign the door and give you trouble free access to the contents of your safe.
