Build your own from parts
You can build your own MortiSafe from parts.
Before you start
You will need to buy the parts listed on Parts you'll need.
You'll need a home wifi system and know the password to join a new appliance to it (the same as you would with a phone or laptop).
You'll need the something to cut a wire and clean the insulation off the end of it.
How to build, quick summary
There may look like a lot of steps to building the MortiSafe Pro but that's only because it's in a lot of detail. The basic steps to it are:
- Cut a wire in your digital safe and connect it to the MortiSafe Pro core unit
- Thread the power cable through the safe
- Plug the parts together
- Connect to a monitor/keyboard and grant the MortiSafe Pro core unit access to your wifi
- Use it

Uninstalling the MortiSafe
If you should want to, you can very easily turn the MortiSafe back into a normal digital safe just by unscrewing some wires:
- Open the safe, and unscrew the panel on the back of the door
- Identify the screw terminal block which has two wires going to the MortiReceiver and two going to the safe
- Unscrew the wires going to the MortiReceiver
- Unscrew one of the wires going to the safe
- Screw that wire back in so that both of the wires going to the safe are connected together
The safe is now restored to normal.
