Finding the Combination to a Safe

- Forgot the combination to your safe? This video may help you out! NOTE: This is NOT a video on how to "crack" a safe. You must have the door open to be able to follow these instructions. This is a situation where I have the key that overrides the lock, but not the combination. This video shows how to find the combination by manipulating / observing the locking mechanisms within the door.
Thank you for your informative video. I acquired an opened Sentry D880 Floor Safe, and with the help of your video, I was able to find the combination. Now I'm on the hunt for the ability to change the combination. Cheers!
Glad it helped!
This video was a huge help. Bought a house that had a 2 hour fire and Burglary gardall safe inside. The door was open! Been looking and calling for combo resulted in no help. Watched your video one time. BAM! $1800 SAFE BABYYYYYY!!! Thanks so much for sharing.
Nice work, Will!
This was SO helpful. The place I moved into has a safe that was left by the previous tenants, thankfully it was left open (no key). I was racking my brain on what to do w/o calling a locksmith and paying who knows how much and probably would have done the same thing you showed. It worked, thank you so much!!
You're welcome!
Thank you this was extremely helpful. My dad passed away last year and I was cleaning out the garage and found and old browning gun safe. Didn’t even know he still had it I remembered it from when I was a kid but for the life of me couldn’t remember the combination. Glad I found this video
I also inherited a Browning gun safe. Did this video help with your Browning?
I am so sorry to hear about your dad passing away!
I can confirm that this works on the first alert 2087f, I picked one up from a garage sale with only the override key and didn’t know the combination, took the inside cover off and there was the sticker with the combination on it (bottom of sticker in brackets ) I also did it the way as shown in video and both worked , thanks muchly
You're welcome, Mark! Cool that there was a combo sticker inside.
Wow!! You just saved me from the trouble of returning this very safe. Apparently the combo they sent was wrong..Great vid!!!
So glad my video helped u out!
Don't keep valuables in it.
How does this video only have 1k likes lol ty we were given a combination a few years ago however we never use it. We store stuff in it but do not lock it. Wewas always afraid we'd forget the combo it's been so long ago I forgot the combination thank God the door has always been kept open.
Did you figure out your combination from my video? I hope so. By the way, I like your name it sounds very familiar to me. I actually have a cousin named David Crockett. I am distantly related to Davy Crockett so we are always interested in family history.
This video was so helpful in figuring out the combo on a safe my father bought. Thanks a million!
Very welcome, John! Hope you like my other videos as well.
Thank you Thank you Thank you!!! I was just today trying to figure out how to reset or determine what the previous combination on a safe that our Dad owned years ago. We never new the combination so it just sat in the office for 2 decades. This video was the exact video I needed. It's a Safe-D-Posit Mighty Max safe with a combo/key set up. If I couldn't get the combination figured out, I was just remove it and just use the key, but thanks to you i have the combination. Luckily the door was open, cause there isn't any getting into it once it's locked. At least not without a cutting torch!🤣Thanks again! Just subbed!
EXCELLENT!!! and...... THANKS FOR SUBBING, JEFF!
@@PhilCrockett You are most welcome brother!!!
Thanks so much, was able to figure out the combination to a work safe that hadn't been used in years 👍
Glad I can help, my friend!
The combination is on the tag on the left side of the door when you take the pannel off! I did learn how to find the combination though, thank you.
That's handy if the safe has that for sure. The interesting thing about this safe, was that one of the numbers was 2 marks off from the original combo.
Super useful Video! Thank you!
You're welcome!
Well done! Easy tutorial!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks I'll try this!
My friend moved into a new house about a year ago and the previous owners left a pretty heavy safe behind that nobody knows the combination to.
I hope this helps find the combination so we can use it!
I hope so too! If all else fails, contact the company, and they have ways to help as well.
@@PhilCrockett thank you
Omg thank you so much you’re truly a savior
So glad I can help you out! Thanks for taking the time to comment!
It's pretty much the same basic principle on most dial combination safes.
Thanks for sharing. 😉👌🏻
You bet!
I just picked up a very heavy probably 500kg Chubb safe. Door open but No code. I got it for free
Thank you very much.
Wow! nice find!
He knew that already!
I'm on this video for the exact same reason! free safe but no code.
Thank you Phil! We recently bought a house built in 1917, and it has a built in wall safe. The previous owners did not know the combination (and they were here for 60 years!) but I used your technique to figure it out. No brand name, but it does have brass tumblers. It was a fun project.
By the way, do you know what would be a good lubricant for that brass mechanism?
Thanks again
glad my video helped you out! I'm not sure about proper lube. If you find out, please let me know. It could help others.
Kind of defeats the purpose of having a combination lock safe if it unlocks with a key.
I always thought the same thing too. In fact.... I use the key over the combo every time. It's faster.
@@PhilCrockett got my dad's Honeywell's safe he passed away cant read all numbers need help getting open can you please help me??
There's safe with combination and keys at the same time
Do you know if there is any way to change the combination of this safe? I have the key and know the original combo if that matters. Looking at the mechanism however it looks as if it wouldn't be possible. @Phil Crockett
I've never done that, however, I bet you could buy new cams to install for a different combo....
This saved me
Excellent! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, Dan!
Pretty easy peasy with the tumblers exposed like that! , not that easy when the cover and unlocking lever are in place hiding the tumblers!
That is correct!
Phil, you are my new "go-to-guy", have you solved the "squirrel ruining the bird feeder" trick? you solved my deck chair pads , thanks. if only I could cut and weld steel. ;-). Nice detailed videos. I'll bet you spend as much or more time on the video and set up than the actual project. Its all good fun and appreciated. I should try it.
YES! The video editing and publishing takes WAY longer than the normal filming. Thanks for watching and commenting. You are the reason I keep this going.
Wait, for the last step, why do you need to note the number of revolutions it takes to reach that number?
What do those numbers influence?
just trying to be thorough with the instructions
Are those lock components inside the door plastic? that's what it looks like in the video.
Yes, they are in the crappy plastic door of this crappy free safe. Lol!
Thanks it worked.
You're welcome, Walter! Glad I could help you out!
I always wonder, stethoscope is usefull in doing safe cracking or not.
beats me
I just inherited a Sentry S3110 from my dad when he moved. Apparently while some grandkids were visiting, the safe door was open and locked with the bolts out. During the move, the combination disappeared. Got any suggestions on how to unlock an open door? If I could get the bolts to retract, I could remove the cover as you demonstrate and figure out the combination myself.
You say the door is open. So you can't take the cover off when the bolts are out? I'm assuming you don't have a key? You will need to contact the company. There's a form to fill out that will need a Notary Public to sign. Give that a try and let me know how it turns out. But........ my opinion on it.......... I would save up and get a Liberty safe..... they are way better quality. IMO
You are amazing. 👍👍👍
HA! well...... I'm probably more , 'silly', than amazing, but thanks, Ads!
doesn't help. We need a method to find the combination when the door is closed
I understand. However, you could write the company and get a key and/or combo. It just takes some paperwork and a notary public approval. Hope this helps.
Thanks for this. How do you change the code?
You would probably need to manipulate the cams in different positions, but I've never tried that before. Sounds like it would be a fun thing to play around with. Just make sure you don't lock your key in the safe! (I actually did this once and had to get a key from the company.......had to sign a bunch of forms with id and Notary Public stamp)
The second number was 41 on the picture, but 40 on the paper. Please explain !
They were all fake numbers. Why would I give my code to the world. However, the instructions are accurate
@@PhilCrockett I will not visit you and try your combination. The instruction does not fit to the pictures in this case.
Looks like I just got a free safe :)
excellent!
Is it possible to change the code?
I is not. The cams on the inside would need to be changed to the different "numbers"
Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
what to do my dial got stuck I can't continue to turn the dial
not sure. I didn't have that problem. darn!
Thank you
I have the key for the lock and can feel it unlock but the handle wont open!
hmm...... not sure what to tell ya there. try jiggling everything at the same time. These safes are garbage. I got mine for free.
Very good 👍
Thanks!
Thanks man it work like you said
of course! Thanks for the positive comment!
sir i have a safe like yours here in ph. i lost my keys and i dont no the code can u help me
Yes I can help! You can call the manufacturer of the safe, and they will tell you what you need to do. You WILL most liked have to fill out a form, and have it Notarized by a "Notary Public". You will also need the Model number and Serial Number of the safe. This will then be verified and the records will be updated with your info in the companies system as you being directly associated / owner of this safe. You will then pay a price for new keys and may be given the combination to the safe.
I've actually done this before.
Phil Crockett okay sir
The combination is on the sticker inside
I wish. Actually.... I had to reach the company (long story short) to get an extra key. I had to get a notary public involved. Anyway.....the combo that they gave me was a little off and wouldn't work. I ended up using the one that I figured out. These a cheap crappy safes anyway. This one was given to me without the combo.
Thanks a lot ..
You are most welcome, kharl!
What is the code for the safe of the safe
What is the code to this safe
I forgot. hee hee
I have a bank safe that uses only 1 number to open I know that number. What's the sequence to open it. Thanks for any help offered.
Never heard of a safe that has a 1 number code. I believe you are being funny. :)
@@PhilCrockett Phil I'm serious it only has one number. Its an bank ATM safe and only has one number for easy convince I've opened both safes with one number before I just forgot the sequence. To open.
Clarence, I have no idea. At least I"m honest......right?
@@PhilCrockett thanks your videos are informative when I figure it out ill let you know.
My Mom who is elderly has a safe and she's unable to keep the sequence of events in her brain that you have to do to use a combination to open her safe. I always do the combination for her except when I get to the last number I stop right before it reaches the number. I gave her the single number 55 which is the last number of the combination and she knows to turn it approximately 3 digits to 55 to get it to open. As long as she doesn't move it any farther than 3 digits from 55 she can lock and unlock her safe. That's the only way she can work a safe.
How to open with out key
You have to contact the company and they will give you instructions to follow for obtaining a key. You will have to get a notary public when you sign for a new key. Not hard to do, but that's how to do it.
A+
Thanks!
Terimakasih atas informasi ini.
Thanks for watching, and commenting, my friend!
Wow amazing ! You think you can post a video on replace a lock 🔐 on a safe box lol
hmmmm........ i would if i needed to do that
The bolts on the locking side are held in place by plastic retainers and when a crow bar or hefty screw driver is applied between the door and seam, the plastic mounts break away from the door. What idiot cheapskate designer thought, let's make our critical safe lock components out of plastic.
Yes indeed. Not a high-end safe. It's secure enough to keep the honest people out though. thanks for your review of this product.
@@PhilCrockett Not the honest ones you're protecting your goodies from, is it? FYI I'd not so much call it a review, but a criticism of the lack of manufacturing strength in selecting all plastic locking parts. May keep a curious child out.... LOL 🤣😅
thanks
You're welcome!
4 numbers ?
kinda.... the last, is really just rotating back to unlock.
So uh.....I have a 25 year old safe that I haven’t got a clue what the code is. Now I gotta spend a lot on a locksmith...
My safe can be opened with a key, or combo. Does yours have a keyed entry as well? If so, then you can contact the manufacturer and request a key. That's what I had to do. You will have to get a notary public and fill a form out, but totally worth it. hope this helps.
Phil Crockett keyhole rusted over 😅
Phil Crockett thank you though. I’m trying unrust it
hey mines different its a 4 didgit number one can u make a vid on that?
i have the key and evrything but not the combination
IF you can take the panel off, then you can figure it out.
It’s the same process regardless of how many digits there are.
That's not a safe thats a toy box.
I agree. That's probably why I got it for free. In fact, ANY safe can be opened with a saw. You're better off just not owning any valuables. THat's the safest way to keep valuables from getting stolen. Thanks for stating the obvious, Clorox Bleach! I love your style!!!
Can't a person just use a magnet.
Mechanical combination safes don't have a solenoid so they are not susceptible to that type of attack.
For what? I’m not following you on this one.....please explain.
@@PhilCrockett I have not used a magnet myself but saw some Locksmith from Canada on CZcams open up a Smaller Sentry safe with some type of fairly strong magnet.
This safe is a piece of junk complete with plastic components of the locking mechanism.
yes it is! I got mine for free! I keep moon beams and flatus in it. LOL! (all in fun, my brother)
روعه
شكرا لكم
volum to low
Turn up the volum, my friend!
Thanks
You're welcome! Glad you liked my vid!
What a beautiful pen worth not selling these models in Brazil, such a model must cost very cheap in the United States, but here in Brazil, country of corruption and inflation, such a model should cost more than a car !!!
interesting for sure
So the doctors stethoscope thing is a Hollywood myth :(
most likely!
Adam Smith Phil Crockett yes. It is contact manipulation. With direct entry fence/wheels, like the model in the video, you measure the movement of the handle into a gate. With a drop in fence you measure the contact points of the fence into the gates. A stetoscope is only useful if you can't feel the drop in points like a bank vault where the wheel pack is almost a foot away from the dial.
Its basically touch and sight (minimal changes of measurements of dial numbers) what is used in a successfull manipulation. So yes, to open a safe using sound only is a Hollywood myth.
