Lost factory code for sentry safe model #d8W5840

As far as I am aware there is no such thing as a Factory Reset Code otherwise every burglar in the world would be using it. You can ask Sentry Safe, but they charge and you need a signed affidavit that the safe is yours, and the serial number, BUT your husband has changed it.

You can use the key to open it, they all have a key in case the battery goes flat.

Or you can just open it with a rare earth puck magnet. They are not at all secure!

• Open your Sentry safe by typing the five-digit factory code (found in your owner's manual) on the keypad. It's always a good idea to change your combination while the safe is open, so that you don't inadvertently lock yourself out.
• Delete any existing codes by pressing the "P" key and entering the factory code, followed by "00000." On older safes, press the "PROG" key and entering your factory code twice to delete old codes.
• Press the "PROG" or "P" key again on your Sentry safe's keypad.
• Enter your safe's five-digit factory code.
• Enter a five-digit code of your choosing within 5 seconds. This is your user code. While the factory code cannot be changed, your user code can be changed as often as you like, and that should be your primary code to open the safe. Only you should know your safe's factory code.
• Retype the user code to verify it is working, and then close the safe.

The factory code combination to your electronic lock will remain in the memory of the unit - even if the batteries go dead. Any use programmed codes will be lost if the batteries lose power. The Sentry programmed factory code is always your default code.

If you do not know your factory code, you can follow this link for your combination retrieval:

hi.
the factory code for sentry safes would normally be 00000.
if this does not work you may have to contact Sentry with the safe model and serial number .
these are normally found on a label on the back of the safe, or a label on the front edge of the safe.

contact details for sentry can be found on www.sentrysafe.co.uk

hope this helps

Hi Juli, if you still have the manual, there is a factory code printed on the beginning page and that code can be used if you forgot your code. The factory code can never be deleted. If you dont have your manual anymore then the only other option is to call the company and they might be able to give you the factory code somehow.

I finally ignored the poorly-written instructions for programming a personal code and simply entered the factory code first and then pressed the prog/enter code button.  The safe opened.  The instructions tell you to push the prog/enter code first and then enter the factory code or personal code to open the safe.  Wrong!  Do it my way should this problem happen to you.
