Learned more about safes tonite then I'll ever get to use.

The numbers I was using were 28 35 60.(ex)I have opened it using these numbers but must have hit the actual ones by mistake.

Actual numbers are 29 38 60.

Need to go left right left with those numbers.

Some safes can go the other way also right left right but they are different numbers.Mine will open with 55 23 back to click doing this.

Locksmith took 5 minutes to drill and open.

They drill beside the lock and use a scope to watch the tumblers from the back side.

His scope cost $12,000.

He gets 200 to drill and open a safe.

After he finished I opened the safe 4 times in 3 minutes using both sets of numbers.

I was in there in 2002 and dad died in 99.
(It was dads safe.)

My will dated 2002 was in there and so was the deed.

Live and learn Gary

Years ago when I was in the Navy I put a combination lock on my locker and I had trouble remembering the combination # so i scratched them on the back. Not long after that I was home on leave and got hurt and wound up in the hospital for two months when i got back to the ship they had cut my lock off and put my uniforms and stuff in a different place for safe keeping.
I ask them why they cut the lock and they said because they didn't have the combination. I ask them why didn't look on the back of the lock.
The answer was "What dummy would put the combination on the back of the lock"

So how big of a hole was drilled into the safe to get his scope inside?

You might want to change the combination to something like your birth date that you and your heirs will be sure to remember.

One way to hide the combination is to disguise it- ie..... ..$2938.60, paid on combine repair..... ..and keep the 'receipt' in your files. Not like my neighbor who painted foot-high numbers on his corn crib wall just after a good salesman went through the area. Another neighbor spotted that and asked him if he just bought a safe!

Keep the combination in a safe place reminds of the story a man who waxed floors in stores at night told me. A farm store in town had the policy of hiding the money at the end of the day in various places around the store letting the manangers know where the new hiding place was. A young gal was closing one night and couldn't remember the place so she chose one herself and then left a note on the desk telling the morning crew where she hid the money. So Gary just tape the combination to the top of the safe where it will be easy to find.

Hope you changed the combination, since 13 of your neighbors know it now. Tom

Congradulations, the last safe I handled was on the second floor of an apartment. It was about 2' cubed and weighed more than 900#. We were told to take it down the outside steps. BUT!!It "took down" the outside steps and imbedded itself 1 foot in the ground. Very memorable exercise in dry rot analysis. JimN

Glad you got it cracked but what are you going to put in it now that entire universe knows the combination?

What I was trying to say was the actual numbers were one or two digits off from the ones I had that we have used several times to open.

Well thank goodness! I have actually checked here several times to see if you got it open.

Now put those numbers away in a safe place where you dont loose it.

Dont lock it in the safe tho. lol
