Why Regular Safe Servicing Extends Lifespan & Boosts Security

Just like a car or electrical appliance, your safe needs regular servicing to remain reliable. Over time, even the most high-end safes develop issues—jammed bolts, worn-out locks, or faulty keypads. At Zista Services, we specialize in comprehensive safe maintenance across Kenya and the wider East African region including Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Ethiopia, and DRC.




🔍 Why Regular Safe Servicing Is Essential



Safes are built to last—but they’re not immune to wear and tear. Dust, humidity, daily use, or neglect can cause mechanisms to degrade. Regular servicing helps:





  • Detect and fix early signs of damage




  • Prevent lockouts due to jammed bolts




  • Optimize digital keypads and biometric access




  • Extend the safe’s usable lifespan by years




  • Maintain warranty validity in some cases






🧰 What Does a Safe Service Include?



At Zista Services, our technicians follow a thorough checklist to ensure your safe is in top shape:



✔️ Lock and Mechanism Check



We examine mechanical and digital locks for wear, corrosion, or loose fittings. Safe locksmiths also recalibrate biometric scanners for accuracy.



✔️ Bolt Work Inspection



We test the opening and closing system to ensure smooth operation. This helps avoid jammed-up safes, one of the most common issues.



✔️ Battery Replacement



If your safe runs on batteries, we replace them with fresh, long-lasting ones. Low battery warnings are often ignored—until the safe won’t open.



✔️ Fire Seal Inspection



We check the integrity of fire seals, especially in fireproof safes, ensuring they're still effective in case of a fire outbreak.



✔️ General Repairs



From worn hinges to stripped screws and general safe repairs, we handle everything.




🛠️ What If Your Safe Is Already Faulty?



If your safe is:





  • Locked and won’t open




  • Faulty or malfunctioning




  • Jam-packed and immobile





We provide expert opening of locked safes services—using non-destructive methods whenever possible. Our certified safe locksmiths are trained to access all models, whether mechanical, digital, or biometric.




♻️ Buying or Selling Used Safes?



Zista offers buy-back and resale services for both businesses and private clients:





  • We sell used safes that are fully refurbished and tested




  • We buy second-hand safes in good condition from homes, banks, and institutions




  • Ideal for customers across Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Sudan, DRC, and Ethiopia





Safe resell is an eco-friendly, cost-effective option that helps our clients save money while getting premium protection.




🧠 Safe Management: Do You Need It?



Large organizations (banks, hotels, petrol stations) often deal with multiple safes across departments or branches. We offer safe management solutions, including:





  • Centralized tracking




  • Key access protocols




  • Service reminders




  • Upgrade plans





This service helps streamline security and reduce internal risk.
