BEFORE INSTALLING THE KEY SAFE
Select your own combination for the key safe. Each number in a combination can only be used once.
It is recommended that you do not use a number combination that can be easily guessed. Avoid numbers linked to your telephone number
or birthday. Do not use a bank card PIN number as this may breach your financial security should someone determine the combination to
your key safe. Use a unique number that only you will know between four and six numbers inclusive.
Record it on the Combination Protector Card included; this should be safely stored so that in the unlikely event that you forget your
combination it can be located and used to access your keys.
WARNING:
Please note that if you forget your combination gaining access to your key safe is not covered by your warranty. There are no
master codes so the ONLY way to open the key safe is by using suitable tools and brute force.
There are no user serviceable parts so under no circumstances should you remove the screws on the inside cover of the lid.
Your warranty will be void if this cover is tampered with or opened.

YOUR KEY SAFE
On the front of the key safe there are 10 buttons numbered 1 to 0. There is also an ‘open’ slide catch and a C (cancel) button.
The key safe is shipped from the factory without a preset combination. This means that the ‘open’ slide catch will open the key safe
without any number buttons being pressed. NOTE: The key safe will not open if any of the numbers have been pressed.
When a number button is pressed, it will remain down. This allows the user to visibly check if the correct combination has been entered.
Once the key safe is opened, the number buttons will reset into the original position.
If a button is pressed accidentally or incorrectly, slide the C (cancel) button down. This clears the memory and resets all the number buttons
to their original position.
Step 1:
To set the combination for the first time, slide the C (cancel) button down to clear the memory
and reset the number buttons. Slide down the ‘open’ button and pull open the lid. The top of the
key safe is conveniently hinged, take care so that the key safe door doesn’t close on your fingers.
Step 2:
There are 10 metal dials numbered 1 to 0 with red arrow indicators on the key safe door.
There is no preset combination so all the red arrows should be facing towards the word RESET.
NOTE: these numbers correspond to the numbered buttons on the front of the lid.
Step 3:
Using the Combination Setting Key provided, set each digit of your combination. To do this, simply
place the Combination Setting Key into the metal dial and apply light pressure and rotate 180°.
You should be able to feel the dial click into place. The red arrow should now be facing towards
the word SET. Repeat for each number in your combination.
DO NOT CLOSE THE KEY SAFE DOOR UNTIL YOU HAVE TESTED THE COMBINATION!

TESTING YOUR COMBINATION
IMPORTANT:
ONCE YOU HAVE SET YOUR COMBINATION THE DEFENDER KEY SAFE SHOULD BE TESTED THOROUGHLY BEFORE CLOSING THE LID.
Once the lid is closed you will only be able to open the key safe using the combination you have set.
• Keeping the Defender Key Safe OPEN, enter the numbers in your combination using the large number buttons on the front of the lid.
• When pressed these buttons will stay down.
• Slide the open catch down.
• If the combination has been set correctly the ‘open’ slide catch will slide down fully moving the latch of the lock.
When released the combination buttons will reset to their original position.
• If the combination has been set incorrectly OR if the combination has been incorrectly entered the open slide catch will not move. In this
instance the combination settings and the combination entered should be checked and adjusted.
• Slide down the C (cancel) button to reset the combination and try again.
• ONLY when your combination has been entered successfully 3 times should you close the Defender Key Safe.
CHANGING YOUR COMBINATION
It is advised that you change the combination regularly. To reset the key safe:
• Open your Defender Key Safe using your current combination. Make a note of the new combination you wish to use.
• Using the Combination Setting Key, apply light pressure and turn all the metal dials (180°) of your previous combination so that the red
arrows all face towards the word RESET.
• The Key Safe no longer has a combination set. Now follow the instructions for SETTING YOUR COMBINATION.
INSTALLATION
Before you start you will need the following items to install your key safe:
• 4 x thunderbolts (6mm x 50mm) - supplied
• A power drill and extension lead
(or heavy duty battery operated power drill)
• 5mm masonry drill bit
• Goggles or other suitable eye protection
Positioning your key safe
Your key safe should be carefully positioned so it is hidden from view. Typical locations might include: behind dustbins, plants,
plant pots, in dustbin bays, behind drain pipes, on the side or rear of the property or any other location that is out of sight.
Fixing your key safe
Select a flat area of wall in an area where you can drill into brick. Try not to drill into mortar as this can often crack and in any case
may allow the key safe to be prised o the wall. Ideally position your key safe across 2 or more bricks for maximum security.
Marking the wall
Using the base of the TPU cover as a template, mark 4 x hole positions onto the wall with a marker or pencil.
Drilling the brick
The holes that secure the thunderbolts must be drilled to at least 50mm. It is essential that the holes are the correct depth - if
not it will prove very dicult to fit the key safe properly. Using the tape measure determine a distance of 50mm from the tip of
the drill bit and wrap some tape around the bit to act as a marker. This should help you to drill to the correct depth and avoid
drilling the holes unnecessarily deep. Drill the four holes to the correct depth using the power drill.
Inserting the thunderbolts & fitting your key safe
Position your key safe and TPU base over the 4 holes and insert the thunderbolts through the holes and hand tighten.
Using your 8mm socket / ratchet / power drill carefully tighten the bolts. The bolts will “self tap” into the holes making the key safe
very secure. Do not over tighten as this may cause the key safe to distort in shape or the thunderbolts may bind into the metal of the
key safe.

IMPORTANT:
If the wall is not flat or if the thunderbolts are over tightened the key safe may distort. This will mean it may not close or open properly. This is
not a fault of the key safe and is not covered by warranty. In some cases the key safe may be rendered unusable. Care should be taken in
choosing a suitable even wall location and ensuring the fittings are not over tightened.
