Rene,

A locksmith once informed me to never spray WD40 in a lock.

In the future, apply some graphite or spray some silicone lubricant in the lock.

Oh ok. Thank you for the info. I will keep that in mind

Glad you were able to get to your razors and that you did not need a gun in the interim!

Wow, did you file a complaint? Smart of you to empty the safe first, but I would have been quite ****ed to find that someone in that shipping company tried to break into (and in the process breaking) my safe.
