Change the code on an AMSEC Electronic lock.

If you recently purchased an AMSEC gun safe with an ESL 10XL electronic lock you NEED to change the combination (code) before you stock the gun safe with your guns and valuables.  Changing the combination is fairly easy follow the instructions completely do not skip any steps.

The input of a new combination is done by keying a “Change Key” code, followed by the Old

Combination to validate a change and then followed by entering the New Combination twice to 

avoid a keying error. To change the combination, do the following: 

1. Press the keys “C” and then “#”. This is the “Change Key” that activates the change routine. The unit responds with a  short warbling tone (called the “good combo tone”) and the red lamp strobes with the tone.
2. Now key in the Old 6 digit combination, the “C” key may be used to clear an error in keying at any time. Finish the input with a “#” key.
• If  the  combination  keyed  matches the existing combination in permanent memory, another short good combo tone is sounded. Proceed to “3.
• If the combination keyed is incorrect, the unit responds with 4 short beeps (called the  bad  combo  tone) and returns to rest. The combination change routine is aborted and the Old combination is retained. This also causes a count  up  for Penalty Lockout. 
3. Now key the first pass with the New 6 digit combination followed by a “#” key. Again, the “C” key may be used to clear an error in keying at any time
• If  the  combination input is 6 digit  in length, another short good combo tone is sounded. Proceed to “4."
• If the combination keyed is not 6 digits long, the unit responds with 4 short beeps (called the bad combo tone) and returns to rest. The combination change routine is aborted and the Old combination is retained
4. Now key the second verify pass with the New 6 digit combination followed by a “#” key. As before, the “C” key may be used to clear an error in keying at any time. 
• If  the  combination input matched the first pass, a long good combo tone is sounded. The New Combination replaces  the Old Combination in permanent memory and the unit returns to a resting condition. Proceed to “5.”
• If the combination keyed does not match the first pass, the unit responds with the bad combo tone and returns to rest. The combination change routine is aborted and the Old combination is retained.
5. Test your New Combination several times prior to closing and locking the safe

The Top 3 Best Gun Safes

Many people that want to buy a gun safe look for the very best gun safe first. Below is a list of the top 3 best gun safes available at TheSafePlace.com. It is important to note this list is for gun safes that measure at or near 60” tall, measure at or near 30” wide. This is the most common size. Generally, the larger the gun safe, the more competition in quality. Also keep in mind there is only one model from each company allowed in the comparison. We did not think it would be fair to include 2 safes from the same company.  Lastly all the gun safes analyzed were those available at TheSafePlace.com.

Similarities among all three

While there is quite a bit of difference between these gun safes, they do have some things in common. All three safes have 4 way bolt work. All three safes are available in a variety of glossy colors. They all come standard with the same S&G mechanical lock. They all have a fire rating of 90 minutes. All of these gun safes have a look and feel of quality that can be instantly acknowledged after opening the door. Another similarity is their weight. All three gun safes are around 1,000 lbs. When shopping for a safe the first question should be: “how much does it weigh?” The heavier it is, the stronger it is.

Fort Knox Titan 6031

The Fort Knox Titan 6031 comes standard with an S&G group II mechanical locking dial and is fire rated for 90 minutes at 1680°F. The S & G includes a key lock and a spy proof dial.  The Titan has 18 bolts each measuring 1½-inch in diameter. It weighs the heaviest out of the three at 1218 lbs. The Titan safes are a uni-body construction measuring a total of 1¾ inch thick. That includes the 3/16-inch outer body and the included 10 gauge reinforced steel liner. The door has a 3/8-inch thick steel plate and a 10 gauge outer steel liner. This gun safe has a total door thickness of 1¾ inch. The body is constructed of a heavy 3/16" steel outer body with a 10 gauge inner steel liner.

The Fort Knox Titan 6031 has a look and feel that clearly demonstrates quality.  One key feature that sets the Fort Knox gun safe apart from others is the ability to customize the construction of the safe. For an added cost Fort Knox can include  extra steel liners for the inner body, thicker steel for the outside of the safe, and even a thicker safe door.  Some other key features include a unique rack and pinion gear drive mechanism, corner bolts, and a dual fire seal. Keep in mind there are more Fort Knox safes available on our website.

Manufacturer: Fort Knox

Retail Price Range: $4500-$4200

Superior Master 25 (M-25)

The Superior Master 25 gun safe (M-25) comes standard with an S&G group II dial lock. It is fire rated for 90 min at 1500°F. The dial has is spy spoof with a key. The M-25 has 18 bolts like the Titan, but each bolt is 1¼" in diameter.  This is the lightest of the three gun safes: 850 lbs. The safe body is a thick 11 gauge body with three layers of fire protection. The safe door has a 3/8” steel plate. While the Master 25 doesn’t have an array of construction options like the Titan, it does have an impressive patented Double-step door construction. Keep in mind there are more Superior Safes available as well.

Manufacturer: Superior Safe Co.

Retail Price Range: $2200-$2000

American Security BF6030

The American Security BF6030 is by far the most popular of the three featured gun safes. The BF6030 has a 90 minute fire rating at 1275°F. Unlike any other gun safe manufacturer American Security has a patented insulation poured between the steel called DryLight.  DryLight is only found in the high-end AMSEC gun safes. The BF6030 has a thick ½” steel plate on the outside of the door. While this safe only has 11 bolts, it is still sufficient and impressive. Keep in mind there are more AMSEC safes with similar options.

Manufacturer: AMSEC

Retail Price Range: $3000-$2500
