Apparently there are a limited number of manufacturers that provide digital locks to safe manufacturers so the back up code problem is wide spread, also it seems you cant really just delete the code.

AmmoLand News was informed that almost all safe manufacturers use locking mechanisms from one of a few companies. That revelation means that the vulnerability of a built-in backup code isn’t limited to Liberty Safes

The actual lock manufacturers still have the backup codes. Going to a mechanical lock is the only way to be truly safe. If you must use a digital locking mechanism, the best way to keep your belongings safe is to acquire a new digital lock and have a locksmith install it on your safe.

I hope that there was at least a warrant signed by a judge.  That's Government seizure of private intellectual property.
