We received an early morning emergency call from a jewellers in Hatton Garden, who had a VIP customer coming in to pick up a very special piece of jewellery. Unfortunately, the electronic keypad had fallen off of the safe that was being used to store the jewellery, and they were unable to open the safe. After a couple of panicked phone calls, Safebusters was on site and the safe was opened shortly after for the hugely relieved and happy jewellers.
Mystery Safe
This lovely old circa 1880-1890’s key safe was built into a wall in a lovely old house in Oxford…
This lovely old circa 1880-1890’s key safe was built into a wall in a lovely old house in Oxford, OX postcode. This was not your conventional wall safe, but hand built into the wall with excellent workmanship - sadly lacking in today’s profit before workmanship criteria.
This safe was interesting as obviously (to me) it had been worked on before, and had a different brass plate and escutcheon than when it left the workshop. Upon closer inspection, I discovered it had been fitted with a 1980’s seven lever safe lock. The lock was picked open and the combination changed, so the lost key wouldn’t work if found by anyone, and two new keys cut on site.
After speaking to the owner, it was discovered that in the 80’s she had hired someone - who she described as a right old character - to open the safe (again due to a lost key). He had come and opened and changed the lock for her, after assuring her he was ‘the best safe cracker in the country, and could open any lock’. She remembered that his name was Terry, and after further probing we discovered it was in fact, Terry Stadden. The legend. I had the honour of being trained by Terry in the 90’s, and anyone in the safe and locksmithing world will know the Stadden name. He is responsible for reviving lock picking in the 70’s as it was becoming a ‘lost art’. Working on this particular safe, after master Terry, felt like a right of passage and I was very happy to use his teachings to continue on his work and follow in his footsteps. Clearing up the mystery of the non-standard brass fittings and parts used from different era safes.
