Antique Safe Opening Masterclass by Wayne Winton

Learn how to open antique safes, what tools you should bring to the job, what makes antique safes different than modern safes, and more!

This is an extensive 4-hour course that we break down into several sections which range from 1 to 30 minutes, making it easier to grasp each concept one by one.

Following each section will be a short quiz that will help you lock in the information you learned at every step, and a final assessment at the end to put your new skills to the test! Once you complete the final assessment you will receive a Certificate of Completion for Home Safe Opening.
