13:50 And if you cannot find any obvious gate signature, you could always go for the lowest point regardless of any signatures. That point will have lowest shadowing by the wheel packs so if you park 2 wheels at that location and graph one wheel, you should get more accurate image for that one wheel because the other 2 have minimum possible shadowing. The closer the fence is the middle of the pack, the closer you're opening the lock.

I think (with a spirit of kindness) that it needs to be a hybrid video of the other video where he defeats the lock on camera and this with a set script. Simply, rotate left 4x to set AWL, Rotate Right (or whatever the next step is) to find XX. Etc, Etc, Etc. There's too much mental clutter jumping from talking point to point, and then backtracking to cover a forgotten point from earlier. I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who found this difficult to follow, I'm glad some others have found success from these videos, but unfortunately I'm not in that group (yet).

For lockpicking, usually it's best not to pick locks in use because there is a risk of damage. But for safecracking, you are correct that there is no such risk! I used to go to a sports store and manipulate all their safes there as practice.

Hey man, watched your whole series but I'm having an issue. The safe I'm working on is an old Sentry Safe 2236 and the dial has "play" in it. Is this good, meaning I can easily feel the contact points or bad meaning the dial is worn and it essentially has a dead zone.

@MisterSunday 11 ай бұрын

I just changed the combination on my safe yesterday and have fallen down this safecracking rabbit hole this morning. My best guess on how to figure out if there is a fourth wheel would be to keep spinning the dial like your going to input the first number and see if you get the friction from picking up another wheel.

Great set of videos. I have a Chubb combination safe that I'm trying to manipulate. It has a dial with the range 0-100, but this range does not cover all 360° of the dial. Instead it is something like 0° - 330°, so I have an area on the dial (approx 30°) where there are no marks. I can hear the contact points in this non marked region, so I'm wondering how I would go about graphing. Would I need to add marks (maybe 101-120 for example)? Thanks.

There are no 8ths displayed on the dial itself but you have to mentally split each number into 8ths as whole numbers aren’t accurate enough when your graphing the contact points.

It’s a great video but I was not able to understand anything! I do have a question though. Can anyone break into someone’s house and feel these ‘contact points’ and eventually crack the safe? Is it common for burglars to know how to find the combination numbers through the way you are showing in this video?

@2Fly4me77 4 ай бұрын

There are very few scenarios in which a burglar will be trying to crack a safe with this method and it means there are many other shortcomings with your security as a whole. It's similar to lock picking in the sense that the vast majority of burglar's are quick fast and very destructive. The safe you have in your house will be more likely to be axed into or broken open with tools then manipulated

@2010Rocrat 2 жыл бұрын

I have been having a problem with my safe lock,, I have been in touch with S&G but they haven't been any help. I programed a new combination into it, and it works good and unlocks, however when I turn the combination to the left to relock, the wheels turn a short distance, the lever begins to lift up, but the bar comes in contact with the gates, stops and won't lift up enough to allow the re-locking process to finish. I'm stumped and don't know if a new lock will work as the locking bar is longer than the newer ones. I can see the digits stamped in the case, 8-83. It also has an additional wheel against the case that has notches that interface with a small notched wheel within the case. I have no idea what the function of that wheel is. I just want to get this lock up and running without purchasing another. Any help would be appreciated.

@lockmanipulator 2 жыл бұрын

Sounds like you have something binding the wheels to the drive shaft so when you turn the dial the wheels are turning too, making them lock the fence in place. Hard to tell without looking at it myself though.

@adelarsen9776 2 жыл бұрын

1) Sounds like you set the last number of the combo within the drop in zone. That means it will open but not lock. With a 1983 manufacture date the last number should not be between 0 and 20. Change the code so the last number (wheel 3) is above 20. 2) The notched wheel you are referring to is the wheel pack tension device. It adjusts the dial tension.

Sentry safes usually have a key override somewhere. I can usually find it under the screwed in logo. Frankly, sentry safe to me is a misnomer. It is a century fire box. There is nothing safe in there other than protection from fire. They are not good quality. You can usually open them with out having two crack the code but by attacking the key override.

I agree, if only in the beginning for the viewer to appreciate how hand movements must be precise to reach a certain goal. Show a lever hitting contact points and high points on the wheels. Then these images will be in our minds when the (blind) graphing starts. Or, use a two-camera, front and back setup.
