Protect What Matters Most at Home

Bakken Locksmith installs residential and commercial safes throughout Williston, North Dakota.

When you need a safe installed in your Williston home or business, you want it mounted correctly and placed where it serves your needs without becoming obvious or inconvenient. Bakken Locksmith handles both floor and wall installations, working with fireproof models designed to protect documents and burglary-resistant safes built to keep valuables secure during break-in attempts.

You choose the safe model, and we position it based on your daily routines, the layout of your space, and how often you need access. We anchor the unit to studs or concrete so it cannot be removed or tipped, and we walk you through programming the code or adjusting the combination so you leave knowing exactly how to operate it. This applies to both home installations in Williston and commercial setups in offices, retail spaces, or storage areas.

If you are ready to install a safe in Williston and want it done without guesswork, reach out to Bakken Locksmith to go over your space and safe model.

What happens during a typical safe installation

We start by measuring your safe and confirming the spot you have in mind works structurally. In Williston homes with wood floors, we locate floor joists and use lag bolts to anchor the safe through the base. For concrete slabs, we drill into the foundation and use expansion anchors rated for the weight of your safe.

Once the safe is bolted down, you will notice it does not shift or rock when you open the door or apply pressure to the top. The door swings freely without binding, and the locking mechanism engages smoothly every time you close it. You leave with a safe that cannot be carried out or knocked over, even if someone tries.

We also help you set the initial access code or turn the dial to the factory combination and show you how to change it later. If your safe includes shelving or interior organizers, we make sure those are installed and stable before we finish. This service applies to fireproof models designed for document protection and burglary safes built with thicker steel and pry-resistant doors.

Most people ask us similar things before booking

These questions come up often when homeowners and business owners in Williston are planning a safe installation or trying to figure out what works for their space.

What types of safes do you install?
We install fireproof safes, burglary safes, combination models, and specialty safes designed for jewelry or documents. Both residential and commercial units are handled the same way in terms of anchoring and placement.
How long does a typical safe installation take?
Most residential installations take between one and two hours, depending on whether we are bolting into wood or concrete. Commercial installs may take longer if the safe is heavier or requires additional anchoring points.
What if I am not sure where to put the safe?
We walk through your space with you and suggest placements based on access frequency, visibility, and structural support. You make the final call, and we adjust from there.
What tools do you bring to the installation?
We bring hammer drills, masonry bits, lag bolts, expansion anchors, levels, and torque wrenches to make sure your safe is mounted correctly. Everything needed to finish the job is included.
What if my safe arrives damaged or defective?
We inspect the safe before we begin and let you know if we see any damage. If the locking mechanism or door is faulty, we recommend contacting the manufacturer before we proceed with installation.
