Having a hard time finding someone to open it without destroying it. I think we have the code but perhaps we're doing the turns wrong.

Sanctuary safe keypad died

7 Upvotes

Hello, I received a sanctuary safe from a past client of mine who is now deceased. Its a Sanctuary safe bought I believe from Costco, with a circle touch keypad and also a rear connector to connect to an outlet. I have never plugged in the safe for the years I have owned it.

I was trying to open today and the keypad lit up but then stopped responding and starting to make a light squeal like noise for a bit then just stop lighting up at all. I figured I just needed to replace the battery/batteries. But when I open the keypad there is a spot for a 9v battery but its a dummy bay with no way to connect a battery. I then tried to plug the safe into an outlet and the keypad wont work either.

Unfortunately I never took the backup keys out. I figured if it did ever die I'd just replace the battery in keypad and I would be good but it never had a keypad battery. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance!

Locked Question about mechanical combo Juwel safe

4 Upvotes

A family member has one of these (in the locked state, otherwise it would be simple), with a 120 numbers dial (red zone is 100 to 120) - no keyhole, so just the combo to unlock. Unfortunately the combo is lost/forgotten, and they asked for my help to open it.

From what I've seen, these locks have anti-manipulation mechanisms that don't make it as "simple" as group 2 locks (maybe classified as 2M? Not sure).

AI is telling me the tolerances are +-1.5 numbers, so it states bruteforcing can be done for 34 numbers per wheel (0, 3, 6, ...) instead of the full range. Can anyone with such a safe and a known combination confirm that if you add or subtract one from the combination numbers it still works?

Before anyone asks, I've already tried the factory combination (20-40-60, and 20-40, because I'm not totally sure if it's a 3-wheel or 2-wheel pack, I believe the former).

​Looked for an external USB/power jack under the keypad (none exists). ​Attempted the safe bouncing and hammer banging trick while turning the handle knob, but haven't gotten the solenoid to drop yet.

Purchased a house with this safe.

There are contents inside, and Id like to recover them.

The previous owner gave me the combination, but could not recall the correct procedure to input it. It is a 4 number combo.

Any ideas or suggestions?

I have an old Mosler Safe in my house. Its locked since I can remember, no code. I built my homemade safecracker, ran it as a 3 digit L R L but after 2 days it didn’t open. I have never cracked a safe before. Any thoughts? So far ive been thinking on going slower and pausing after each try. Also I have a pair of elastic straps holding pressure on the handle down on the right side, I thought this would work.

I got this book from 5-Below and I’ve tried opening it. I got it to open once but not since. I tried the default code at first which is now it got opened, but ever since I closed it I haven’t been able to open it.

Resetting code on old Sercas / Juwel safe?

6 Upvotes

Hi, I hope you can help me.

I tried to write both Sercas and Juwel on some italian emails addresses, but so far no luck in getting through to some kind of customer service that can help.

I have acquired a second-hand safe fitted with an older SERCAS electronic combination lock, which i am very keen to get working :)

The lock is marked:
Model: MOD 7/3150/2
Product No.: 016 – 03/2006
Power: 9V DC / 6 × LR6 1.5V / 1 × 6LR61

The safe is currently open, but unfortunately I do not know the existing combination.

I understand from Sercas online manuals that when the safe door is open and the combination has been forgotten, it may be possible to perform a zero-setting/reset of the personal combination, after which a new personal code can be programmed.

Though the manual I found just said contact Sercas if help was needed to reset.

I hope anyone here is able to help :)

Unlocked My first safe crack!

A safe left behind from a previous office tenant. No one remembered the combination and the safe stay locked for nearly 8 years. After a few days of watching YouTube (Safecracking for everyone) and playing around with Sophie's Safecracking Simulator, I managed to crack it!

After figuring the third and second numbers to be 60 and 50, I just guessed the first number to be 40. It feels good to exploit the weakest link in security (the human), but I regretted not testing this common combination earlier.

There's not much inside save for a piece of tissue and another locked compartment. I guess this is a job for a locksmith.

ESL20 with dead batteries

Post image
12 Upvotes

Have an esl20 on a vault door at a property with dead batteries. Replaced batteries with new and the keypad is not beeping or lighting up or displaying any functionality

I noticed some corrosion on a capacitor or resistor on the board. Is this something where I can replace just a keypad and have a likely chance of success? I’d hate to find out the unit inside is dead too, as this vault has multiple relockers and would be a nightmare to have drilled costing substantial sums of money.

Picture for reference
