Are you positive that you are closing the door all the way in?
Customer Reply
Yes
Do I leave the handle open and then close it and put the code in or do I close it and then put the code in?

To activate the Locking System, locate the locking push button on the inside of the safe door, push it in and turn the handle to the left. This will cause the live door bolts to extend out and into the locked position.

Have you done this?
Locate the small plastic Locking Pin on the inside of the safe door. Grip and pull out completely then dispose of properly.
