San Dimas is a community with a strong sense of home and a population that takes security seriously. Safes are common on properties throughout the city — from equestrian estates and hillside homes to traditional residential neighborhoods and commercial properties near Bonita Avenue. When access to those safes is suddenly cut off by a forgotten combination, a failed lock, or an inherited safe with no documentation, Curleys Key Shop is the experienced safe opening service to call. We’ve been opening safes throughout the Pomona Valley since 1951. Call (909) 622-6716 today.

We handle both mechanical and electronic lockout situations and perform most openings at your location, wherever in San Dimas you are.
The Most Common Safe Lockout Situations
San Dimas residents and businesses call Curleys Key Shop for safe opening in a variety of situations:
- A combination hasn’t been used in years and is no longer remembered accurately
- An electronic safe’s battery depleted completely during storage, triggering a lockout
- A safe was acquired through an estate with no combination information
- A property was purchased and a safe was included without access documentation from the sellers
- A safe lock has malfunctioned, accepting the correct code but refusing to disengage
Each of these situations is resolvable with professional safe opening — and Curleys Key Shop handles all of them.
Opening Safes Without the Combination in San Dimas
For mechanical combination safes, Curleys Key Shop‘s preferred non-destructive opening method is dial manipulation. This technique requires specific tools and considerable skill — the technician reads the lock’s mechanical feedback to determine the combination without entering it through the dial. It takes longer than drilling but leaves the safe completely intact and fully reusable.
When dial manipulation isn’t feasible — for instance, if the lock mechanism is damaged or the safe uses a high-security design that resists manipulation — Curleys Key Shop performs controlled drilling as a last resort.
Estate and Used Safe Opening in San Dimas
San Dimas properties — particularly the larger estates and older homes throughout the area — often contain safes that have been in place for a very long time. Estate safes and used safes from the secondary market frequently come without their original combination, and accessing them requires someone who knows how to work with older lock designs.
Curleys Key Shop has experience with safes of all vintages and approaches older models carefully, using techniques appropriate for the specific lock design.

You’ll know what to expect before we begin — the method to be used, the likelihood of non-destructive access, and what follow-up service may be needed after the opening.
Transparency is part of how Curleys Key Shop operates. We don’t surprise clients with unexpected approaches or costs.
