The original owner of a lock box has long since moved from this apartment block. How can we reset the code without knowing what they used? Failing that, how do we remove the box from the wall?
It should be mandatory for the landlords to remove old master locks off the walls. It should not be new tenants/new owners responsibilities at all. Only positive side to this, is thieves will have less will to attempt breaking it… it will also give you higher chance as nobody will be able to tell which lock you got your spare keys in…. That’s why I am leaving the old ones on the wall.
Lock looks good, however the combination can be worked out in a few minutes using a thin piece of metal cut from a coke can. Not a key safe but a key unsafe.
Cynthia Unfortunately there is no magical way of resetting the code. If you have any idea what code your family member was trying to enter, you could try numbers either side e.g. 1234 try 1233, 1235, 1224, 1244, 1134, 1334 etc or alternatively take it off the wall and while watching TV start 0000 and go through the other 9,999 codes.
A family member tried to be helpful and reset the code for me. He wasn't paying attention to the new code, and cannot remember it, now. So, the box hangs open, and locked. The reset pin will not work now, in the 0000 position. Do you have any helpful hints to erase the forgotten code and start fresh?
Well done thank you! Who ever gave this a thumbs down needs to find the correct video for the brand of lock they actually have. Thank you sir again!
Thanks for the tip about checking it before closing it because I wouldn’t have thought to do that. Excellent instructions!
Exactly. I am currently stuck because I locked mine and cannot open it again
@@Mariamsadventure Oh no! So sorry that happened to you 😣
@@Mariamsadventure Use combinations of digits close to yours
A wee tip is to leave the top screw slightly untightened, so you can hang the keys on the head of the screw
This was PERFECT!! I was pretty sure, but this solidified my suspicions. Easy and direct and to the point!
Appreciate these videos that are direct and straight to the point. Thank you!!
😅😮
I lost the instructions so thank you for making this video. Loved it. You gave very clear instructions.Worked like a charm :-)
Thanks! Straight to the point 💯

This boat is becoming longer by the minute

If u have an alarm on Ur home then it's safe to use otherwise I don't recommend
Thanks , as others have said didn't have instructions so this really help
Thanks for this - short, sweet, to the point.
Easy to change the code with this video. Thanks
Thank you! So helpful.
Danger lock. Thiefs love it.
Many thanks!
I did that but didn’t check first and now it’s not working? Do you know how to reset it or find out what’s happened as I now can’t get in
Do you have to put the code 0000 first or do you put the previous code in then change it
Great easy video ! Thanks
Thank you very much!
Thank you.

This is exactly what I did not want to hear. Thank you sincerely. Now to get a sledgehammer. 🤣🤣🤣
This worked for me, thanks!!!!!!
Does it only work well with 1/4" ?
What happens if you've forgotten your code you reset ?
Really helpful thank you

So, the box hangs open, and locked. The reset pin will not work now, in the

Cheers
I can open one of those in less time that this video lasts without knowing the code!

Cynthia - look for this video on RUclips
"How to decode a master lock key safe?? "
So all burglars have to do it set the combination to 0000 and then they can open the lock and get your keys. BRILLIANT 😢
mate you can change the code
Yes its simple. What youre about to say is already on the leaflet provided. waste of time😂
Yeah but some of us idiots (me) threw them away 😂
this box is a piece of shit and can be picked open in about 40 seconds
This,box is,rubbish as once you forget the code you can't open it to use it again🤷♀️
I forgot my code, anyway I can open it?
Thank you -- very helpful!
