SOURCE: know combination, but cannot open sentry safe 1250
If you know the combination:
1) Turn the dial to the left a few complete rounds, then stop on 1st number.
2) Turning the dial to the right, pass up the 2nd number once, then stop on it on the next round.
3) Turn the dial to the left directly to the 3rd number then stop.
The handle should open now.

Hi.
Yes, you need the key to open it.
Your code is 4 numbers (one or two digits each).
First turn the knob several times counter clockwise To "reset for starting)
Turn the knob clockwise. Stop when you hit the first number the fourth time. Then counterclockwise, and stop when hitting the second number the third time. Counterclockwise again until you hit the third number the second time. Counterclockwise, and stop when hitting the fourth number the first time.
Now you need the key. The safe opens when you turn the key clockwise. I don't know where to order a new key, but I suppose the manufacturer can help. Your key number should be engraved ON the lock. Mine has four digits lock/ key- number.
I have not been able to find the manufacturers web page...
I wish you luck!

SOURCE: Harldline safe not opening
inside a combination lock are tumblers which should be lined up after you dial up the numbers. What sometimes happens is the lock may tilt slightly on the mounts if someone twistes hard on the open latch. The answer sometimes is dialing it off 1/2 number. Had a quebec manufactured safe do that. Screws that were to small for the holes in the lock. put a mark with tape on each side of the dot and dial up your numbers.

Locksmiths agree sometimes even with the green light the safe’s batteries are not strong enough to retract the latch. Try replacing them with some new alkaline batteries

Locksmith instructions for sentry safes
on how to dial open sentry fire safes.
NOTE: If your safe doesn't have a key, skip Step 3.
Turn the dial to zero.
Insert your sentry safe key and turn it until the plunger pops out.
Turn the dial to the left (counterclockwise) three times to the first number of the combination (pass the first number of your combination two times, stopping on it the third time).
Turn the dial to the right (clockwise) two times to the second number of the combination (pass your second number once, stopping on it the second time).
Turn the dial to the left to the last number (stop the first time on your last number).
Pull the handle down; cracking sentry safe open.
