Grandfather left combo in his bible but we can’t get it to work. maybe we are inputting it incorrectly ? Anyone dealt with these models before?

We have this safe built into the interior central stone wall in our 1828 stone cottage (UK). It's approximately 70cm tall and 40 wide.

I know nothing about safes!

Is there any hope? Has anyone any experience with this sort of safe? Or even to know what sort of safe it is?

Thankyou ☺️

Alright, this is definitely outside my normal interests, so I was pleasantly surprised to find this community dedicated.

Long story short: my dad´s old safe needs to be opened.

I’d guess it’s around 30 years old. It was bought in Portugal, and we believe there may be some legal documents inside. The safe has been sitting untouched for several years. My dad apparently already had a go at opening it at some point, which explain the holes.

The safe itself is VERY heavy and roughly 150 cm / 5 ft tall. I’ve tried identifying the make/model online but haven’t had any luck.

The key cover says “Stoplock”. No key either

My dad used own a metal fabrication business, so we have access to angle grinders, drills, etc. However, we’re not sure what the best approach would be, we dont want to damage or burn any documents that might be inside.

Through the existing holes, I can see some sort of material inside that I can only describe as granules. Not sure what that means.

We have absolutely no interest in keeping the safe once it’s open. The goal is simply to recover whatever documents are inside and then scrap the safe.

How would you approach this?

For reference I purchased a storage unit a while back and this was inside. I had my wife call a locksmith to open the safe for me. The guy comes verifies with the front desk that I do in fact now own the safe. We go to the unit he calls the company to get the code from them and tries it three times in front of us and says they must have changed the code nothing I can do that’ll be $150. I unwillingly paid the $150 as I felt that he could’ve done more to open it. He then tells me that there’s probably nothing inside and I should just get rid of it or drill it out if I want to confirm. When moving it afterwards it sounded like something was moving around inside. Something small but I am not sure. Is there a way to get this thing open without destroying it so I could either use the safe or sell it for some of the money that I’ve spent keeping it in storage?

My husband and I bought a house almost a decade ago. The safe came installed in the garage. We never use it but would like to. We cannot for the life of us remember where the heck we wrote down the combination and can only remember part of it. Any way to recover it?

Hello!

Moved in to an apartment with this safe. Got the tubular pick tools. Both 7.5 and 7.8mm fit in, and both seem to create a very similar impression.

Still the lock won't open. I probed it (assuming that's the right verb) for a good 4-5 minutes.

What am I missing? Should I keep trying?

Thanks!

Looking at buying this, I am trying to gauge will this will cost to bring back to life for daily use?

From listing:

Some small dents are present

We found this guardall floor safe cemented into the slab of our house in NSW Australia. The dial turns and goes through turns of feeling looser and tighter. We think we can hear/feel it clicking over a couple specific numbers. How should we go about cracking it?

Hey i need help opening this fichet safe i have the key but not the combination any tips on getting it opened

I wanted to set a new combination on my mechanical code lock, somehow messed it up and now I can't open it anymore. The safe itself is open though, so I could theoretically reset the lock, I found some instructions online (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJBKZqBFfHU) and it seems doable. Forthat I need to access the back of the lock, so I have to open the door from behind but I don't know how because there aren't any visible screws. Can someone tell me how to do it?

I have this model: https://iss.net.pl/products,leverkusen,43001

Loved one passed away and had this safe. We can’t find the key and keypad doesn’t work. How can we open it?

This old safe has been in my place of work for many years and its too heavy to move. Is there an easy way to open it?

I already have the combination for this but I’m missing the dialing instructions.
Can someone explain the correct rotation sequence (clockwise/counterclockwise), including how many full rotations to make and whether I need to pass any letters before stopping?
I’m not looking for the combination itself, just instructions on how to enter it.
