You can try contacting the manufacturer. If the combination hasn't been changed, they may provide you with the combo for a fee once you prove it's your safe. If they don't want to deal with you, you can get a locksmith to request the combo. If neither of these options work, check to see if there is a layman group of safe and lock pickers in your area. They might take the project on for the challenge. Good luck!

The combination has for sure been changed to the owner's birthday or something like that.

If you look on the inside wall of the door, opposite to where the turn-knob is, there should be a square-ish hole.
That's where you insert the key for setting your own combination.

If it did not come with the safe, your local locksmith may know where to find one, or may even offer to set your new combination.

Why don't you know the digital combination? You must be opening it every day if your medication is in there.

Call a mobile locksmith. Tell them it is an electronic lock and ask if they have a rare earth puck magnet? They will use the magnet to draw back the electronic bolt.

I have forgotten my combination for my gun safe, can you help? It is a Sentinel gun safe.

If it is electronic, you can open it with a rare earth magnet.

open sentinel safe with magnet

If it is a traditional dial, you will need to contact sentinel, with the serial number, a cheque for $25 and a sworn affidavit that the safe is yours.

In cases where you think you can't remember a combination, it should be kept in your wallet and perhaps coded, add one number or 2 numbers to each of the numbers in the real combination.

Bought this gun safe in 1998. Has a combination lock. Have the combination but it will not open safe.

If it is an electronic combination lock the batteries are probably discharged. In that case there should be a key and somewhere to put it in order to open the cabinet and replace the batteries. Electronic locks usually beep when the numbers are entered followed by a different beep if successful.
If it is beeping nice and loudly it would suggest you have the wrong code.

If it is a mechanical lock it must either be the wrong combination or the lock is broken and you will need specialist help, perhaps from the manufacturer.

Bought safe from auction with no key or combo. It is a v360 serial #m462763. Code 00000 doesn't work. Are their other factory codes.

The combination has for sure been changed to the owner's birthday or something like that.

If you look on the inside wall of the door, opposite to where the turn-knob is, there should be a square-ish hole.
That's where you insert the key for setting your own combination.
