combination safe

Spin to open

A combination safe is a secure storage container that opens by entering a specific sequence of numbers or symbols on a dial or keypad.

The mechanism requires the correct combination—typically three or more numbers turned to precise positions—rather than a physical key.

The old combination safe in the back office hadn't been opened in years.
