When hunting for safes, it’s important to remember that they don’t have a guaranteed spawn rate. This means you might visit a location where a safe appeared in a previous match, only to find it absent in the one you’re currently playing.
Like chests, safes can also only be opened once per match by any player.
For these reasons, you may find the ‘Open safes (3)’ challenge rather frustrating. Our advice is to pick a location which has multiple safe spawn points, have a quick look around and, if you can’t find one, simply get back to having fun.

A number of these locations, including Craggy Cliffs, Dirty Docks, Holly Hedges and Sweaty Sands, have multiple safe spawn locations hidden within them. The best place to look for safes in these areas is within buildings - be it a home or an office.
Since safes in Fortnite currently have a low spawn rate, we recommend visiting one of these locations if you wish to complete the ‘Open safes (3)’ challenge, because you’ll have a higher likelihood of actually finding a safe.
It is important to mention though that, just because there’s a high number of safe spawn spots, this still doesn’t guarantee that a safe will actually spawn in one of these locations during your match. There may also be a higher number of other players in these locations also looking for safes.
