  • Thanks for all the light advice folks. WFH this afternoon so might be able to see if I can get at the transformers etc to plan the job a bit better.

    The reason I'll be at home is my gf has locked herself out. Again. So to stop this happening in the future I have suggested a key safe like this but I'm wondering if it needs to be screwed to a flat wall? Our house is rendered with some sort of lumpy stuff (technical term) so potential robbers would just be able to jimmy it off the wall fairly easily and then break the box open somewhere quiet at their leisure.

  • Combination key boxes are rather easy to open, so I woudn't rely on one to keep a spare key safe. With 5 minutes on Youtube, you could probably do one in under two minutes... Its not much harder than actually having the code!

    A waterproof case and a non obvious hiding place would be way more secure.
