Other manufacturers besides Liberty also use these Securam locks, so good on you guys for jumping out ahead of this and empowering the end user. Let's hope that manager's code was the only additional backdoor tied to each lock serial number.
SecureIt uses SecurAM locks on their safes.
We use Securam locks on our Answer 8 and 12. We give both codes to the customer and keep no database of them.
@@SecureItGunStorage What about the Securam manufacturer reset code? That is the code that people are concerned right now. This video seems very carefully worded and disingenuous if it was released to address the controversy right now. Last I checked the only way to actually get rid of the MRC on these Securam electronic locks after user codes have been set involves cutting traces on the board...
My safe is not secure? Unless I spend time and money to secure from your employees?
So correct me if I'm wrong, but based on my research, in order to make sure that Tyrany residential security container company doesn't have a master code to one of their safes, purchase a lock body with cash from a safe dealer and replace the old one. The code is actually stored in the lock body, not the keypad. So if you replace the lock body, Tyrany (liberty) will give the code to the alphabet boys and it won't work. And since the lock body is inside the safe, they won't be able to see the serial number on the new lock body. Again, please correct me if I'm wrong.
With all the noise over this issue the last few days, this is an easy fix. Thank you for posting this. I'm saving this video before it gets deleted.
But that probably mot the backdoor they used this is just smoke and mirrors
There probably a universal code that open any securam lock
Thanks for your help! FJB!
To reset ANY electronic lock, remove it from safe and pack it in tannerite, stand back an appropriate distance and shoot it. replace with old fashioned mechanical lock. Problem solved!
Good on em for uploading this that is a pro 2A move not giving up the back door code at the drop of a hat
Thanks for being open and honest, but for me I'll stick with a manual dial type safe lock. Sure, it's slower but it removes all chances of the kind of abuse we're seeing from Liberty.
Unless you bought that safe from liberty. Then they have the mechanical combination stored just like any electronic lock. Having a mechanical lock doesn’t give you one bit of extra protection in this case.
@@damienmidanik9680unless you follow the directions to set your own code... which you did... right??m
The point of my statement is that many people think having a mechanical lock is more secure or that this whole fiasco doesn’t apply to them simply because they have a mechanical lock. They also think changing the combination on their mechanical lock will save them. What they don’t realize is that there are only so many positions you can set a mechanical wheel. You can change the combination all you want. If someone has the original combination, the new one can be figured out in a manner of minutes. You can change the position of the wheel to the dial but you can’t change the distance between the striker and the window on the wheel. That gives a mechanical lock a very limited number of possible combinations. If you already know 1 possible combination, the others are quite simple to figure out.
Based on SecuRam's documentation, I think you've got the manufacturer and user code swapped. Also note that it's possible to disable/delete the user code completely so there is only one valid code, which may be what some customers want.
I caught that too. Also found out the beeps the keypads do on the Liberty models are different than the beeps the ones direct from Securam. I replaced the lock on an old Winchester safe with the TopLit from Securam that matched my Liberty safes and noticed that when I unlock the Liberty safes, I get 2 beeps, but the one from the Securam beeps once.
Thank you! This is very helpful and as a new customer I have found that I like your products a lot more.. thanks again.
Dude you're THE BEST.
You are the Yuengling of gun safes

Well done on this video and the call for the industry to do whats right.
There is nothing inherently wrong with Liberty Safes or with the various third party locking mechanisms they use. The problem, and it is a VERY big problem, is that their current owners developed such an abusive corporate philosophy regarding their role in producing safes and their condescending attitude toward their customer base.
The corporation, “Liberty Safe”, has no excuse for this type of betrayal. If I owned a Liberty product, I’d just reprogram the digital lock or replace it with a conventional mechanical dial type. And then make certain everyone knows that they should never buy any products from Liberty Safe. Never.
Another question is, does Liberty have the combination for mechanical locks on file, too? When I was in the Army, they regularly changed the combination to mechanical safe locks. The S&G mechanical locks used on safes can change the combo, with the right knowledge and tools.
There can be only one combination on a mechanical dial lock. Normally when I buy a safe, that lock is at the manufactures default. Always change the combination. You can do so yourself with proper tool, and good locks will ship with that tool. @@brucestarr4438
@@brucestarr4438 Most safe manufacturers who serialize their safes do keep records of the original lock combination that shipped with the safe. I mean no one who buys a $3000 safe wants to pay a locksmith a few hundred dollars to destroy it, because you forgot the combination. Most people aren't interested in total security, just enough security to stop a random thief.
I've been able to buy locked safes and after providing the manufacturer with some proof I am the owner (bill of sales from auction houses, etc), they have sold me copies of the original keys and provided the original combination. I think the most I have paid is $25 to get the info, and send a few faxes back and forth.
I never recommend anything other than a good old fashioned high quality dial lock. When you get your safe, it is easy to modify the mechanical combination and then you are the only person in the world who knows the combination. Then be ready to have your safe drilled in the event your forget, so at the minimum, you are getting a door replaced (but probably buying a new safe).
@@brucestarr4438 As far as I know, most(?) safe companies keep combinations on file for mechanical locks. But then, it's not hard to figure out how to change the combination for yourself, or it's even easier to make sure there's no serial number on the outside of your safe.
Whoever wants to will still get in, because angle grinders are a thing, but it's usually best to make them work for it.
I dont know exactly what happened. But if all liberty did was tell the cops to hit 0 six times then 123456 then he literally just read the manual to them. They could have went to Walmart and read the manual or just pulled one up on their phones and figured that out. If thats the case, then all this is was the Fed’s being too lazy to pull up a manual on their phones and called customer service who read it to them.
This procedure works on more than the securam locks. It will work with any lock using that circuit board. Which is probably most of them.
You can also set both codes the same and only have 1 combination that will open it. I dont know why anyone would need two different combinations for the same lock.
Mine works just like this as well but i didnt have to pull the lock and factory reset. I just hit the 0’s and changed the other code to the same as my code
Love the new logo and copy. I’m a big fan with 6 Agile safes, an ammo locker, and tons of accessories. I’ve NEVER had an issue with any of them and I love to modularity. 🔫🎯🏆
Thank you and we appreciate you trusting us with your storage needs!
Liberty pulled a Bud Light and did something so offensive to their customer base. Helping a fucking government agency get access to a man's guns and having a back door available for everyone elses?? I think it's high time consumers show Liberty what we did to Bud Light.
Never gonna buy liberty safes again.
I think Liberty made a big error by giving away that code without proper paperwork, but you can bet something expensive that will never happen again. IF, big if, they apologize well, I'll keep my Liberty. If they pull a Butt Lite and tell us to bugger off, then they're toast. I would like to see them survive this, having learned their lesson because this will put them MASSIVELY on the side of 2A. Yep, they should have been there already, but this is a not only a (huge) learning lesson for Liberty, but every other safe maker. So, I'm going to wait to see how Liberty handles this.
@@VegasMikeP229 One question I have is that we know some of the locks, like the one above, can be reset to factory 111111 and 123456. Liberty knows this too and they haven't suggested that as an option to their customers, only requesting expunging their data. Why not totally transparent??
@@VegasMikeP229 traitors deserve no forgiveness.

Cool story blow-hard
Now more important than ever. Altho i do not do electronic, thank you.
Do this for more electronic lock brands! Namely the cheaper ones with the reset pushbutton in the safe.
You have the manager/user code reversed but it doesn't really matter. ... at least according to the SecRAM video on same topic.
On DeviantOllam channel, he said most of these locks have a third code in them, a 7 digit manufacturer's reset code, can you comment on this?
He won't because this is the real backdoor not this crap don't buy anything with a securam lock
Make sure you tell everyone that all someone needs is the Phoenix unlocking tool, which connects to the other end of the ribbon cable on the keypad, and with a few button presses on the Phoenix, your safe will be open and all the codes reset, regardless of what the user set them at.
So no, if you follow this procedure it doesn't mean you are the only one who can open the electronic lock on your safe!
At the end of the day, a low-tech angle grinder approach works just fine. It's all about how easy you make it.
Yes low tech brute force is easier at that point but what so many are losing sight of is that the FBI cannot claim their warrant covered this ‘safe’ if they had to hack or destroy to access the contents. By having the manufacturer unlock the ‘safe’ it removed the risk of overstepping the warrant. Mechanical or welded shut doesn’t prevent the Feds from accessing anything, circumventing government restrictions and oversight is what Liberty did and justifies the outrage.
That tool only works on a limited number of locks. and Securam isn't one of them.
@@DrWuzer
I think immikeumot is referring to simply cutting thru the side of the safe with an angle grinder using a thin disk. Most of the safes that us mere mortals can afford have relatively thin walls. Sure, it makes a bunch of noise, but I've been told by a construction worker that he could cut the entire side of a gun safe open in 3 minutes. If you're robbing a house, I'm guessing speed counts more than subtlety...
@@drteknical6571 My reply was to @wlnorris75 about the Phoenix unlocking tool. not about the angle grinder. Yes, you can brute force your way into any safe.
There is still a non changeable 7 digit MRC code that only Securam and the safe manufacturer knows as well though, right? I know I've read about the 7 digit MRC code, and you only reset the 6 digit management code, which is different than the 7 digit manufacturer code, right?
I confirmed with a professional locksmith that there is NO additional code besides the manager (supercode) and user code. The manual reset clears both.
@@markgman4157you won't find anything it's like trying to find the backdoor of a phone with a google search lol
The back door need to be complicated enough for it to not become a exploit
Thanks
Thank you for this. I've just done this procedure and it went smoothly.
Other people have asked questions about some sort of 7 digit manufacturer reset code. Can you speak to that?
Thank you for the timely video. You earned my sub, like and comment.
Thank you!
Im waiting for the lockpick lawyer to chime in on this one😂😂
Based
Thank you
My Liberty safe has a NL lock on it. Does this lock have any similar issues, and if so, is there a similar process to correct these issues? Thanks!
Tom - Does this procedure also work with the Securam L01 (with small LCD screen). The L01 has 3 possible stored combinations. These are known as ID00: Super Code, ID01: Manager Code and ID02: User Code. Thx for posting this video.
Cool!! I have a Liberty safe and the keypad says Liberty in large letters and under that in smaller letters it says SecuRam. Will this process work on that lock?
I know it works with SecuRAM Safe Logic locks. I've done it.
@@markgman4157 I didn't realize the lock assembly has to be accessed from inside the safe then inside the door to do this. If my Liberty SecuRam can do this, then great. If not, once the door is apart, I'll put in a different E-Lock thing.
Yes, the lock on a liberty safe is a SecuRAM lock.
ATF and DHS is probably watching this ripping out their hair saying fuuuu.
I bought my liberty a decade ago and I paid extra for the S&G electronic lock. Is there a way to remove any default codes out of it? I still have the manual lock as well which was the original lock it came installed with from liberty
Everyone should switch to manual locks because an EMP will fry your electronic key pads.
Good point! Do you know a source for them? Are they "universal"?
So correct me if I'm wrong, but based on my research, in order to make sure that Tyrany residential security container company doesn't have a master code to one of their safes, purchase a lock body with cash from a safe dealer and replace the old one. The code is actually stored in the lock body, not the keypad. So if you replace the lock body, Tyrany (liberty) will give the code to the alphabet boys and it won't work. And since the lock body is inside the safe, they won't be able to see the serial number on the new lock body. Again, please correct me if I'm wrong.
How do you re set a NL key pad that’s what my Liberty has
Can this be done with a S and G?
Can I pickup an order from your Syracuse location?
We are currently working on a solution for in person pick up. We have warehouses in multiple cities.
Some how my new Bighorn Gun Safe has gone through 2 batteries in 4 months. Don't believe it. All of the numbers of the combo litup, but 2 of the 6 didnt beep. A reset by accident got it working again. Securam black plastic lock. Going with a mechanical. Enough crap.
This just one brand. How many others may face this Tiranny from so many other mfg's?
Shared 👍
Mine got changed out to an S&G combination dial right away. I didn't trust the digital garbage. And this was over a year ago.
This process won’t work on a Securam ProLogic or a Securam Scanlogic.
Not doing this is like moving into a new house and not changing the door locks.
As electronics design engineer with university degree who designed things like that I can tell you there are simpler and better ways to get rid of manufacturer and anybody be able to enter the code that they might have. It is to cut off one of wires for proper button AFTER recording your code to one that does not use that button. Then even manufacturer will not know how open or override the code you have. If this is digitial serial keyboard then there is simple digital buffer circuit that can cut of one or more of buttons from being used on digital controller. And in honesty get me one of those and I will reverse engineer - redesign electronics and start making money on Liberty idioticy.
I will be contacting safe lock companies in my area about putting a mechanical dial lock in my safe .Which unfortunately is a Liberty.I didn’t know safe companies could do this.A totally dishonorable practice. Time to perform a Bud Light Boycott.
So do you really think the Feds would be like, Oh snap, no code what are we going to do. They're going to cut that safe up.
You are not going to stop Law Enforcement. You can only slow down your neighbor.
I think some people are under thinking how it all plays out. If the codes weren’t given, they would have moved straight to a diamond metal cut off wheel and opened the side of the safe like a tuna can in about 3 minutes.
What Liberty did wasn’t cool … but it wouldn’t have stopped the end result. It probably even took longer to make the phone call, then what they could have done via a destructive entry.
My American Security safe has a locking mechanism with an SG in the logo area. Can anyone tell me who that is? I installed the safe in 2010 if that helps. Thanks

@@tomault1473 thanks I really appreciate it!
When are you going to tell everyone you also have a data base with a back door master code for every electronic lock safe you have sold. Don't lie because you and I both know you have such a data base.
Safe manufacturers keeping codes to the safes they sell is like selling a car to someone and then keeping a spare key to it. Why would anyone do that when it is no longer their car?
They are concerned about warrant claims. The do not like the idea of a locksmith having to cut into a safe because their customer forget the combination. - They seem to be acting like parents of irresponsible children.
I don't buy digital anything if a mechanical option is available.
How about not doing business with a shady company?
all other safe manufacturersshould be using liberty as an advert !! you can easily rid yourself of one of your biggest competitors.
I wish you didn't charge shipping from China
Off the shelf your product is not a "safe" place to store my products? " I have to disassemble your product and spend an hour to undo your insecurity?
How about dont use a digital safe...ever
This is not accurate! You can never remove the factory back door code. The code he is changing is the master code... that is NOT the factory back door code.
Are you one hundred percent sure there isn't a third undisclosed code?
You know kinda like that "Just in case" sorta thing.
Knowing the way most electronics are designed now I'm still not convinced.
Then again, if you truly want to remove ant factory backup codes I suggest a good EMP. That way you know they will have to grind their way in.
So, just buy a safe without a keypad?😂 lots easier to keep your safe, safe with a mechanical lock.
Side note - FK Liberty Safes!!!
You got it all wrong if its attached to a liberty safe! If its a liberty safe you drag it outside and pile about 200lbs of thermite on it and melt it into slag. Then you go buy a safe from someone who doesnt activly support those who seek to take away our 2a rights and is a 100 percent mechanical lock with no company anywhere having the combination aside from yourself. THAT is how you reset these "locks"!
Stop being over dramatic. The end result doesn't change. Liberty was always going to give the FBI the passcode, it was just a matter of when. And no, the owner would not have access to the safe in the meantime.
@@andrewschliewe6392 oh it matters if your the owner of that safe and your home was wrongfully raided! In case you arent aware, the whole purpose of a safe is to keep people out INCLUDING LAW ENFORCEMENT and make them work for it if they wanted in that bad. By not making their policy of handing over codes without a court order THEY VIOLATED THE TRUST OF THEIR CUSTOMERS. If no code was surrendered then they still would have gotten in but they would have had to work for it,... which oddly enough is EXACTLY WHAT A SAFE IS SUPPOSED TO DO! If you buy a car that has a device on it that cops can use to disable it remotely are you just going to trust that system to not be misused by the police? I sure as hell dont.
My Liberty sage transitioned into a smoker last weekend.
Thank you!
