Kidde J5 Over the Door KeySafe™ is a convenience product, not a security product. 

A. Setting your combination 

Your Key Safe does not have a pre-set combination. You select your own combination. 

Each number in a combination can only be used once. 

Do not use a number combination that can be easily guessed, such as telephone numbers or birthdays.

Use five to six numbers in your combination. 

B. Testing your combination

1. Enter your number combination (each button pressed must click when pushed down). 

2. Press down the OPEN button. If it has been set correctly, the OPEN button will slide down fully. 

If it has been incorrectly set, the OPEN button will not slide down fully. When this happens DO NOT return the lid to the key box. Instead push down the CLEAR button and refer to the pictures in section A. Setting your combination. 

C. Mounting your KeySafe

1. Hang the bracket over top of door or to the side at the hinge of the door. 

The J5 over-the-door KeySafe is part of our Classic range. You can download the user guide for the Classic key safes below.
