5 Reconditioning operations
5.1 General
The safe should be inspected for evidence of attack or opening following a lock-out. Any damage to the body or door, especially drilled holes or part holes, should be repaired to restore the original strength, hardness, toughness, and thermal cutting resistance. A check that the door is central in its frame and for wear of hinge pivots should be carried out. NOTE 1 The original safe manufacturer, without accepting any legal liability, might be prepared to offer advice regarding safes of their own manufacture, based on information supplied to them. Any principal working part replaced in reconditioning a safe should be an authentic part supplied by the original manufacturer, or a part of equivalent or better quality where the authentic part is unavailable. Replacement locks should be certi ied to BS EN 1300 in accordance with the requirements of the relevant standard for the safe. Where an identical lock is no longer available, a lock of equivalent or higher speci ication should be itted. The replacement lock should have no detrimental effects to the boltwork mechanism and should operate in line with the original design. The size and type of lock bolt, along with the minimum engagement should not be less than the original. NOTE 2 Where a proprietary item, such as a lock, is part of the original speci ication of the safe, an identical replacement may be obtained elsewhere. Any speci ic information relating to the reconditioning of a used safe, which could be of assistance in its later compromise, should be the subject of a stringent security discipline by the organization responsible for carrying out the reconditioning operations. A record of upgrades should be provided with the reconditioned safe. Safes with a certi ied label claiming compliance with the relevant standards covered by the scope of this standard should be restored to the grade claimed but no higher grade can be claimed.
