r/safecracking

My home-made safe cracker found the combination to an old safe I picked up, but I still cant get the door open.

Dial is an S&G group 2. When I dial the 3rd digit and go clockwize it jams at about 95. I believe the lever is falling into the gate but I dont think after that im getting any movement on the bolt. It just jams, I dont feel any resistance of the bolt moving. I dont want to pull too hard and break anything. Any advice to get it open? Is it possible that there it too much pressure on the bolt not allowing it to slide? What is the opening procedure for the door? Does the silver arm turn up or down or just pull?

Any tips or help? Thanks

We found this safe in the basement of the 1939 house we just bought. Looks like it’s built right into the foundation wall. How do I open it?

My sister and I bought a house and this safe was left behind. Searching the serial number on the door (EX2007076633) produced no results. Wondering what model safe it is and/or how to relock it so that it can be used again. There's also a USB port on the underside of the digital keypad for some reason. The keys do not turn in the lock.

I have a Cannon safe that was conveyed with the house when I purchased it two years ago. The seller stated a piece of paper with the combo was left in the room the safe is in; this was not the case.

After much back and forth with my realtor and the selling agent, both insisted on a specific, 5-digit code, to open the safe. This particular keypad specifically requires a 6-digit code. When I brought this up, the response I received was that the seller himself recalls having a # or @ sign… neither of which are present on the keypad. There is a star key, but it doesn’t register any presses before or after entering the provided 5-digit code. This leads me to believe the seller never had access to the safe either and it was likely from the owner before him.

I reached out to Cannon with the serial number and a few photos and they flat out told me they can’t help me.

My realtor was supposed to send for a locksmith, but his preferred tech of choice wasn’t available. Anyway, life got in the way and I just stopped worrying about it for now. He did send a replacement lock, but it’s an entirely different part with an entirely different pinout.

Should I just get a locksmith to come out and get it open or is there something else I can try? Thanks!

Yes, I’m powering the keypad with my bench top power supply since I’m all out of 9V batteries.

Found this in the floor of my house. How viable is it to work out the code and open?

I have a Gunvault safe with a 7 pin tubular lock override. The safe was given to me by my boss and i need help opening it without a key. I intend to open it and use it for my own purposes. I called the manufacturer, and they do not have a replacement key, as this safe is an older model. I am using a HUK tool. I have been able to impression the lock, but im doing something wrong as i still cant get it open. I can turn the tool in the lock.

This is Amazon basics safe box, we accidentally left the keys inside. I’ve tried using hammering and jumping on bed and other popular techniques, but none worked.

Any advice to help unlock this would be a great help.
