Setup
1. Unpacking
Carefully remove the vault from its packaging. Inspect the vault for any signs of damage. Retain all packaging materials for future transport or if a return is necessary.
2. Key Lock Operation
The BD1135L vault uses a traditional key lock system. Two keys are provided. Insert one of the provided keys into the keyhole and turn it clockwise to unlock the vault. Turn counter-clockwise to lock.
3. Battery Installation (for LED Light)
The LED feature requires batteries (not included). Locate the battery compartment, typically inside the vault. Insert the required batteries, observing the correct polarity (+/-). Close the compartment securely.
4. Mounting (Optional)
This vault is designed for floor mounting. If you choose to mount the vault, select a secure location. Mark and drill pilot holes according to the vault's mounting points. Secure the vault using appropriate hardware (not included) suitable for your floor type.
Operating Instructions
1. Opening the Vault
- Insert the key into the keyhole.

- Close the vault lid firmly.
- Insert the key into the keyhole and turn it counter-clockwise until the lock engages.

3. Using the LED Light
If batteries are installed, the internal LED light will activate when the vault is opened, providing illumination for its contents. The light will turn off automatically when the vault is closed.
Maintenance
1. Cleaning
Wipe the exterior of the vault with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish. Ensure the vault is dry before closing.
2. Battery Replacement
If the LED light dims or stops working, it is time to replace the batteries. Follow the battery installation steps outlined in the "Setup" section. Always use fresh batteries of the specified type.
3. Key Care
Keep your keys in a secure location. Do not store spare keys inside the vault. Avoid bending or damaging the keys, as this may impair their function.
Troubleshooting
Vault Will Not Open
- Check the Key: Ensure you are using the correct key and that it is fully inserted into the keyhole.
