The amazing lock and opening mechanism works with a beautiful key and this tricky mechanism and combination starts with finding the moving hobnail to expose the key hole and then a secret sequence with levers and movements to follow with the key allows to unlock the safe and open the door. On request, the interior of the safe can be completely customized either with watch winders, as a cigar humidor cabinet or liquor dry bar lined in leather with LED lighting and a custom base to fit your home decor style can be ordered as well. Dimensions are intended for the safe only, the base in pictures is not included. See less
