Mechanical Combination Lock
This lock requires a combination to be entered manually through the lock dial.
When the code is successfully entered, the lock dial is turned to the right to
release the lock bolt. Then the handle can be turned to open the safe. Refer to
Section 3.13 for the procedure to open the mechanical combination lock.
Safe Opening Handle
Safe opening handles are present with single mechanical combination locks and
with electronic combination locks. Safe opening handles are used to release the
safe door after you enter the correct combination on the mechanical combination
lock or electronic combination lock keypad.
Self-closing Feature for Safe Door
If the safe has an electronic combination lock, there is a self-closing feature that
closes the door bolt work and handle automatically when the safe door is closed.
In the past, the safe door could close, but the bolt work and door handle were not
closed if the handle was not turned to the closed position. Now, when the safe
door closes, the safe door bolt work closes and the handle turns automatically. To
reopen the safe door, the combination must be reentered.
