How to Open a Key Safe WITHOUT the Code - Easy Method!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- In this video I explain how a key safe can be opened when you don't know the combination.
No special tools are required.
This can also work on various other combination locks.
This video is for educational purposes, is under no circumstances intended to be misused, and is to also highlight how insecure these products are.
Watching this on my new TV from 3 doors down the street
Brilliant 🤣
I enjoy these very humorous replies to comments. 😂
THANKS FOR GETTING ME INTO MY AIRBNB AFTER THE OWNER FORGOT TO SHARE THE CODE. Litterally saved me abd my entire family from having to sleep outside. Cheers
That's brilliant, I'm really glad this video helped, and I hope you and your family have a great holiday! I'd be interested to know the owner's reaction 😊👍
You say Air BnB, the owner says Squatters. What's in a name?
Let’s have it right. If you’re stupid enough to expect a little cheap safe keep your home safe there is already something wrong. These safes are best aimed for communal key access lockers etc.
@@Boxercamperwhynot Correct
That was great, Poklok! Very nice info and demo!
Thanks Adam, appreciate it 👍
1000s of Airbnb owners now pissed off 🤣🤣
They should be happy that they've been shown how terrible these boxes are. It's just not a security solution.
@@Pik_lokthen which one is?
@@zairabandy8695 a Supra C500 is a better option, but it's still decodable
Any lock can be broken
You gotta have guts todo this though
Thanks for showing people how to break into my house! Might as well just leave key under door mat now !
It might be safer, a key safe advertises exactly where the key is.
Not if fitted out of sight, which is how i.fit them.
Your well come
Most seasoned burglars will know this anyway or have other methods to get in ,personally I wouldn't use a key safe.
It's better to know the break-in issue here than not know it. That way, you can take better precautions such as ensuring the key-safe is out of obvious site, i.e; right by the front door.
Now all the vulnerable people are at risk now.
They already were. These boxes are rubbish.
Excellent, I can pretty much gain access to every house in Cornwall and Devon 👍
And I doubt that their insurance will pay out either, I can't believe people trust these things
Most people in remote locations don't lock doors anyway. Just let yourself in and make a cup of tea
@@Pik_lok are there any more secure key safe options?
@@nonegiven9579 the Supra C500 seems a better option, but I haven't tested it yet. There is however, always going to be a risk accociated with storing a key in a box. I am also currently testing another box, which I hope to upload in the coming weeks
I’ve got my hatchet. Mr anonymous, Devon 😅
Don't believe it! Used the backing of an old postage stamp as it was waxed so a bit stiffer but slid in better and was in within less than 2 minutes. Been trying random codes for years and recently started going up from 0000 to 9999 sequentially every time I had a spare 5mins but this has saved me hours. Thanks so much, legend!
That's brilliant, glad it helped. Was the key in there? 👍
Former fire department Lieutenant here. Having opened these in emergency situations, these key safes are surprisingly easy to open using simple hand tools such as a flat-head screwdriver or a knife. 🚒
You wouldn't put one on your house then?
Exactly, flat nose screwdriver and 10 seconds
@malcolmpaterson5881 would work👍, but I was going for a less destructive approach
Thanks for post your information for criminals to read.
@nevetsgnil1962 you're welcome
Lots of holiday homes use these key safes,I’d never rely on one for my home though.I never did think they were very secure and now I know they arn’t.😅
It’s surprising the trust people assign to them. You are advertising to anyone capable that your keys are in here. If they’re a little more hidden that’s a bonus. In all honesty, there are far more options and levels of secrecy that out match these key safes by simply hiding the key on your property.
@ethan4237 I completely agree with you, and most people have no idea how easy they are to open.
Way to stop people doing this is to have 2. One on show with a picture of a middle finger sticking up in it, then another one out of site with your keys in
@@JohnChilds-jr6pn or swap have an agreement with a nearby neighbour, where you store each other's keys
These key boxes should not be located by the door, rather out of sight, I work in community homecare and I know of boxes located on a front garden wall behind a plant, behind the bins, and inside the meter cupboard, sometimes the obscure locations make life awkward for us and we have the actual combination there is one property we visit where the box is located on the wall of a neighbouring property and that property has a very alert dog behind the door.
Although I can't recommend using these boxes, as they aren't a security device, but rather a convenience device. It would make sense swap with neighbours, and store each others' keys, as they are so easy to open. 👍
@@Pik_lokJust put it in a corner with a camera doorbel with pir senor if someone try it the alarm go of and the thief is on the cam😂
@@pirsensor1186 at least you'd be able to take some comfort from seeing who robbed your stuff 👍
*It's also sometimes possible to open this type of low cost (cheap and nasty) lock using your ears. As you turn each dial there's a slightly different sound that the 'click' makes when it reaches the correct digit on each dial. When you hear the different click sound, move on to the next dial. Works on briefcases, padlocks etc too. You can also 'feel' the difference through a sensitive finger. I occasionally open (then reclose) a locked cabinet in our local DIY store to select and then purchase a high value item rather than waiting 10 minutes for a member of staff to open the cabinet. The store is too noisy to hear the tiny difference in the clicks but I can feel it, through a finger really subtly as each dial is turned.*
Absolutely true. I do have a combination bike lock that's possible to audibly decode, the click sounds dull on the correct digit, and if you check out my Rhinolock padlock short, you can do them by feel... as well as quite a few other combination locks. Appreciate the comment, thank you. 👍
Now burglars are more educated. Breaking entry now without marks of violence: Insurance says NO, you must have forgotten to lock.
The problem is that these products are so poorly made. The manufacturers are aware of these exploitations, but choose to do nothing about it, prioritising profits over security. They are the ones that need to be held accountable. Raising awareness helps people make more informed security decisions.
You can safely assume that burglars already are aware of this method (as well as of others).
@@michab4083 I completely agree
The gentleman thinks burglars didn't know about this before the video? Welcome to the real world. The purpose of this videos is to educate the non burglars on how easy this is to crack and for them to buy something so easy to crack
@java427 thank you 👍
These really are garbage... DO NOT USE THEM!
@@wellybobs4403 agreed
Thank you for helping me open my key box I accidentally locked myself out of; as a real estate agent, I was shocked to see how easy these are to hack, and glad to know my broker requires Supra boxes instead, for listings. These might be a hide a key option for contractors only in the future. Hide the key box too, if using these, everyone!
Really happy it helped and thank you for taking the time to tell me. I wish more people would realise how poor these boxes are. Quite coincidentally, I bought a Supra C500 earlier today. They're a much better option. I believe they are decodable, but it takes a lot more time and experience to do.
I hope your comment is real. We have one of these lock boxes, and my grandson is tired of trying to figure it out by recording his attempts. I was concerned the video may just be a gag.
@angelam6364 it's not just a gag. It prevented a family from having to sleep outside a couple of weeks ago, when the Airbnb owner forgot to give them the code.👍
I'm happy to report my grandson now has access to a lock box. He put a flashlight, handcuff key, and his last suction cup nerf bullet. Then he was so impressed he reset the code for his Gigi to figure out aGain🫥🤷🤭. I love the researchers in our youths. 🙃
Could you use a cutting from a coke can for a more permanent piece of paper? :D
It's quite possible that you could yes, and while you're at it, you could also make a couple of padlock shims out of it too! 👍
Do you really think this is a responsible thing to show!!!
Do you think that these are a responsible thing to sell???
I have a keysafe because I need emergency services regularly and Ii live alone. Thanks for making me feel really unsafe.
This isn't a new vulnerability, the manufacturers know about it, but simply don't care. It's them who have compromised your security, any criminal already knows how to get in to these boxes
Yes but by putting the video up you have invited new criminals to break into houses. Well done. They can watch it on your channel while breaking in.
@@solescampbell4384 I don't think people are going to turn in to criminals after watching this, let's be realistic. What did happen on Saturday though, a family went on holiday, and the Airbnb owner forgot to give them the code. This video then prevented the family from having nowhere to sleep, and saved their holiday.
@@solescampbell4384I agree with you. I feel unsafe too.
Just write the number on it with a felt-tip pen.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 great idea 👍
wow! who knew? Now, to impress my grandson.
Brilliant! I was always fascinated by this kind of stuff as a child 👍
Lol
I just bought one, reset the code and not remember it. Thanks to your video, I don't have go buy another!!!
I'm glad this video helped, lol!
Bonus, now you can get into something any criminal will already know how to get into too. Buy something better.
This is insanity - what’s wrong with you !?!
It is pretty unbelievable, you'd think they'd make them better than this!
I’ve found that trusty ole sledge will get into most locks as well large bolt cutters. If those fail, cordless cut off wheel pretty much golden. Just hide the key in a tricky place
Much quicker to use a screwdriver in the top and just prise it open. (It bends enough) doesn't even damage them
Irresponsible - reporting
Irresponsible manufacturing
They are very common in over 50’s retirement villages and the code is recorded with the ambulance service in case the occupant is responding.
It's just a shame the manufacturers don't take people's security seriously.
What is the metal loop at the bottom for ? I did not find it in the manual.
ruclips.net/video/2_KLlbAMbes/видео.htmlsi=Igvr9qIR_j00guN1&t=49
It provides spring tension for the door, so it springs open, when you open it. Hope this helps 👍
You only need to key the time eg 04:05 not the whole url
Thanks. I’ll never get one of those. Much appreciated
You're welcome. No, I wouldn't bother, thanks 👍
These useless security products have been on sale for years. The manufacturers are aware of it and choose not to improve them. (The insurance industry too presumably.) The more of us who know about it the better.
Absolutely! If people stopped buying current models, they'd have no choice but to improve them. Thanks for commenting 👍
I’m now going out to buy a better solution for hiding keys..👍
That's great. I hope this video was helpful.👍
Why on earth would you advertise that to the world? How stupid.
So that people can make more informed security choices. Understanding security is your first step to improving it, the manufacturers have known about this issue for decades, but prioritise profits over security. It's the manufacturers you should take issue with, for making such poor products.
@@Pik_lok that’s as maybe but you have just shown people who would not have worked this out for themselves how to open them now.
Why would you do that! Oh yeah for views.
@CC_FPV I don't think any criminal would struggle to access the contents of one of these cheap boxes, with or without this video.
Fascinating thank you for this. Amazing that it is so simple.
You're very welcome! 👍
A plastic key safe 😆 kind of defeats the object .screwdriver and prise it open 2 seconds 😅
Thank you. Very useful to those whose work involves key safes, like the case industry.
If a burglar want to access a key safe they are easy to force open
Thank you.👍
A key safe isn't going to stop a hardened criminal
But...... what if dodgy person wants to copy the key inside and come back at a different time?
Ok
Thanks
So you have to go back to posting keys or, worse, still employing someone to provide you property access? To be honest, criminals have an institution for learning such skills 😮 just because you know something it doesn't make you act on it.
You're better know this than to not know this. You should blame the manufacturers for making such rubbish products, with flaws that have been known about for years, but refuse to improve the design, putting prioritising profits over people's security.
At the back of my key box my son has fixed a 120 volt cable so I have to go to another hidden place in my garden to turn the power off before touching the key box which is live. My son did this because he said “ it’s only a matter of time mum before some Pratt on RUclips finds a way to open the key safe and shows thieves how to open it” At least if they try on my box they are in for a surprise.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Surprise for the emergency service if they need to get in to help you.
I suspect you would be in a lot of trouble if someone was hurt.
@@coops1964 from a paper cut?
That's a great way to get sued and end up paying your burglar a shit ton of money.
Interesting .. Does this apply to all such devices ?
Not all, but quite a lot. It also works on some other devices with combination locks, for example, padlocks and lockable boxes.
Bloody great, I've just bought one and you're telling the world how to pick it!
Shame you didn't watch this before you bought it.
I’m sure you’re just telling us something any serious would-be burglar already knows, so thank you for bringing it to our attention. I’ll be finding a different solution
@@oli1181 Thank you, I wish everyone saw it that way. You should see the comments that don't get published! Have a good weekend 👍
Just bought one yesterday, haven’t opened it yet. Taking it back to the shop lol
That's probably the best thing you can do with it lol
Wow, that's amazing how he did that! I use one of these in case the kids leave their key at home or lose Thier key. I don't think I will keep the key in there any more!
I really would think about it, these things are too easy to open.
@@Pik_lok my dad has one of these at his new home he moved to 2 weeks ago, the old lady that lived there died of dementia and no one knows the code, I will attempt to open it, I will let you know how I get on. 👍
@grannysvids good luck with that, please do let me know how you get on.
Why was picklock allowed to show this. Many people are now at risk,including single pensioners and other vulnerable people who use an installed key safe..Especially the elderly ,who use one for an emergency entry,should they have take ill,suffer a fall etc.Picklock should be made liable if a thief admitted to police that he gained entry by watching Picklocks video.You tube need to be aware of what they allow to be shown on their site..Especially when it could place people in danger and also their property at risk.
So it's not the fault of the manufacturers for making products with defects that have been known about for decades. It's not the residents' fault for not understanding security. It's not the criminals' fault for breaking in? And trust me, a criminal doesn't need this video to access the contents of the box.
Videos like this help people understand how security works and will allow them to make more informed security decisions. If your bank had a security vulnerability, and anyone could take your money, would you rather not know or know and change bank?
In the 60s 70s combination locks could be opened by pulling on the shackle or chain whatever type, from left to right turn first pulling on lock till you feel it's tightening, then follow on with second etc etc. will only work if none in right place to start with
@andrewlengert2558 Thats right 👍 You do get some combination locks with false gates, which can make things a little more difficult. Generally, most combination locks are susceptible to decoding and shouldn't be used for any medium/high security applications. Especially considering they can be brute forced in a relatively short time period.
If you can't be bothered to do this then a hammer works very well
Agreed 👍
No, I put my key under a mat in front of my door like normal people do. Would you still upload a video showing how to break into a house if you weren’t getting paid?
@@jak493 I wasn't getting paid when I created this video
Not a very sensible video, only helpful to criminals

Irresponsible holiday let owner. A business plan shouldn't rely on one of these cheap, useless boxes as the main security measure.
Shame on you mate, you’ve just told all the housing estate lags how to break into the vulnerable pensioners bungalow….yippee.
Hey, I made another video on how to open a Rhinolock keysafe. You should check it out! 🔐 #lockpicking #security
Oh, and wouldn't you rather know if you've got a security vulnerability? Trust me, the 'lags' can already open these boxes, basic tool make light work of them. 🛠️ #securityawareness #homeimprovement
People will do anything for 5 mins of shame.. I mean fame
That's rather optimistic, it's more like 3.78 minutes 👍
I was assuming, given its plastic you'd just smash it in two with a hammer, thats what i did when we forgot our code
I was going for a less destructive approach, but the hammer method is also a good technique.
@@Pik_lok it depends on how much one needs the loo...
@privatechannel8462 🤣🤣🤣 I think you might be right lol.
@Pik_lok especially if it my wife who needs to go...
Better keep a hammer under the doormat, just in case.
Is this video for people who have a keysafe to allow carers or emergency services to gain access without breaking the door down?
Or, is it for the general public or people who burgle homes and prey on the vulnerable and or sick and disabled people. If it is the later, you have just put thousands of people in serious danger. If I could prosecute you I would, you think you are helping people or think this video is educational, think again. This video will be removed.
Thanks for your comment Steve. This video is for people who don't know what the combination is, as these boxes are useless, and no criminal would need the video to access the contents of one of these boxes. These boxes are cheap rubbish, the manufacturers know that they have design flaws, but prioritise profits over people's security. I therefore hope this video helps people make more informed security decisions.
I needed to remove one of these and did not have a key so got out a hammer. In getting ready to give it a big whack I lightly tapped it with the hammer and with that tap it just fell apart!
They really offer no security at all.
I know. They're not made to any proper standard, and I think highlighting this helps people make more informed security decisions 🤔🤔🤔
Why does RUclips allow videos like this to exist! Many elderly and disabled people rely on these devices to allow carers and the emergency services easy access; what you have done is given access to every thieving thug. You should be ashamed.
I'm not ashamed, these boxes aren't fit for purpose. The manufacturers are prioritising profits over people's security and the care agencies are prioritising convenience over security. This video does help people make more informed security decisions, if there is a security flaw on a product that I own, then I want to know about it, not bury my head in the sand
Most council houses in the uk. Come on in 😮
Why do they have these?
Please don’t wear black tracksuit bottoms and a hoodie whilst trying this as the po po might stop and ask wot u is up too !!!!!
Yeah, that would be a good look. Or a balaclava and a black and white striped jumper 🤣🤣
What an idiotic video, just for burglars!
Trust me John, burglars don't need this video 👍
A lot of these safes are used by Elderly and disabled people so that carers have access to their property. Now every scum bag knows how to get in, well done.😡
Every scum bag could get in to these boxes even without this video. They're useless and shouldn't be used. Using these bixes is just prioritising convenience over any security.
easy ?
ok I am feel not save at home.....
@ebert11000 These boxes aren't safe, I'm afraid.
if I'm not mistaken you can also hear the different noise
I haven't managed to hear it on this, but I do have a bike lock that I can decode by listening to it. I was thinking of making a short video about it.
Just put 1000’s on pensioners at risk…well done, video reported.
Any criminal is already going to know how to open a box like this. Surely it's better that people understand security, they can then make more informed security decisions.
Not a good idea to advertise this but if someone wants to break in they will the law needs to hit criminals harder
I think this needs highlighting, especially considering many insurance policies may be invalid as a result of using these boxes that meet no standard, and the manufacturers have been aware of this exploit for decades. The manufacturers are prioritising their profits over people's security, the criminals know, the manufacturers know, is it not about time the end users knew too?
Completely agree with hitting criminals harder 👍
Most of these are located in a random place or a wall not flat on the ground. I imagine for most thieves this would be a difficult task especially when trying to be discreet.
It's a good point, but if anything it would be easier if it was mounted, as you don't have to steady the item. For example, on a padlock this technique can bit very difficult as you need one hand to steady the lock, one to spin the wheel, and somehow another had to hold the paper. If it's fixed to a surface, whether that be horizontal or vertical, it's much easier as it only needs two hands. I have decoded one on a wall before, and it posed no problem. 👍
Let's face it, you're only kidding yourself at this point. BUY A BETTER LOCK.
The thieves of the world say thank you!
And also people who need to get into one without the code. Like the family last week who, thanks to this video, didn't have to sleep outside.
So RUclips goes and arbitrarily filters videos based upon a certain set of criteria that they RUclips deem, morally and ethically, correct. Yet somehow showing someone how to pick a lock to get into a home or a storage facility even though they’re not saying that’s what it’s for you can only imagine that people will try and do that now that they know how to do it. And yet somehow this slipped through.
And now you've watched this, you can make more informed security decisions. 👍
Fair enough but It's still not good to show the wrong people how simple it is to compromise them.

Why so many drill holes? Ive seen one when they haven't even screwed all the way
There are loads aren't there, might need that many to stop people simply ripping it off the wall with their hands, as it's only plastic at the back
Why would you do this not necessary to show this at all makes it a pointless item
They're already a pointless item. No criminal is going to struggle to get the key out of the box with or without this video
I got one by my front door. I fitted it a good 15yrs ago, not used it for 12+ yrs. Totally forgot the combo, but might be able to resolve that now. (Prolly rusted to sheet inside tho)

When my home was broken into they just picked up a garden statue and threw it threw the window and smashed off my alarm with my ladder. These lock boxes only keep honest people out nothing more, i always cringe when I see them in plain view.
Really sorry to hear that experience. I actually cringe too, there are loads of them and they aren't made to any security standard. I suppose on the plus side, if they smash a key safe box, it's cheaper than replacing a door or window, would offer very little solace to such a situation though.
That was so easy to do I tried it on my key box and got it right on 2nd attempt. Thank you for the info.
Awesome! Glad it helped, and thanks for letting me know 🙂👍

Additionally, the channel serves as a documentation of my personal interest in locks and offers assistance to others.

@@Pik_lok or it can inspire people with questionable goals...

Excellent, but I did try this a few times but it did not work….i will give it another whirl though!
Good luck, if not, there's a slightly different technique you can use on those locks. It also feels for the gate, but you can use a thin piece of metal. I've used a metal tie wrap before, and the technique is the one in my video: 017 How to decode and open an Abus 158/50.

Why would you post a video showing how to break into a house. This video needs removing
This video does not demonstrate how to break into a house. Instead, it illustrates how to decode a kaysafe. The ease with which this can be accomplished suggests that you should not rely on one for your security.
@@Pik_lokYes but many Airbnb properties have these so could encourage squatters
@misuel Airbnb owners should be aware of the poor security of these devices! ⚠️ #SecurityAlert #Airbnb

Wouldnt be difficult at all.
Well, that’s good to know not that I’m ever gonna use it, but you just showed every criminal in the world how to break in, all locksmiths should not give their secrets away 😮😮 but I guess it’s too late for that since everyone is showing everyone how to break into locks, doors, cars, and everything else you can imagine
@@desert-walker Thank you for your comment. While I understand your concern, it’s important to recognize that exposing vulnerabilities is a crucial part of improving security. By demonstrating how a combination keysafe can be opened, we highlight potential weaknesses that manufacturers can address. This awareness encourages the development of more secure products, ultimately protecting consumers from potential threats.Any issues raised within this video should be directed to the manufacturers of these devices. They have known about these vulnerabilities for years but have yet to address them. The security industry relies on transparency and continuous improvement, and disclosure of vulnerabilities is a key part of that process.
@@Pik_lokThis is the irresponsible excuse used by every hacker! If you want to expose the flaws in design then tell the manufacturer not blast it out to every teenager on the internet! Vulnerable people use these safes and YOU are making them a target!
its quicker and easier to use a hammer to open it
That is another recognised approach 👍
How do you know it was by 5
Every one I've known you rotate by 5, as the gates are on the front when the paper drops down, and the gates need to face the back on all that I've tried. It's possible to need the gates facing in a slightly different direction, if it was made differently through, which is why I mentioned trying 1 rotation of each wheel at a time. 👍
Great work dicklock.
