This informative video is providing the consumer a clear "disclosure" of what minimal effort it takes to access the contents of this perceived "safe" box. It's amazing how many get upset about exposing the vulnerabilities to their so called fireboxes/safes. However, once they lose their precious family heirlooms, documents, jewelry, guns etc.. THEN they say.. "wish I had known". Well HERE is your wake up call. Excellent Video.
Put this safe inside another safe thats inside another safe thats inside another safe. That way its safe.
It would be safe to say that would work.

You mean it's a safe safe. 😁
Thank you for posting this video, was about to pick one up from the local warehouse because they are on sale, and decided to look up some info on this product. You guys saved me 200 bucks! ^_^
LOL true dat!
Great for keeping the kids away from my wallet but that's all . .
buy a gun safe
A great many gun safes have this same vulnerability, and others. Some, I kid you not, can be opened with a McDonald's straw. Others, require something a bit more sophisticated: a paper clip. There are toddlers, on video, opening some of these things in under 10 seconds. And then closing them and doing it again because it's so much fun. Adorable to watch and hear, really, until you consider the ramifications.
Thanks guys! I greatly appreciate knowing how worthless those are.
how ironic, the Canadian uses a hockey puck magnet.
New Videos coming lol
Mr. Locksmith
Thank you so much I was able to get into my unsafe and fine that one of my jewelry was gone but able to figure out who did it. THANKS for the video
thank you so much. You just saved me a whole lot of money when my Sentry Safe stops letting me in. I bought a magnet for $16 from Amazon and I was able to make it happen. Sincerely thank you so much you really save me a lot of time and money
How big was your magnet?
Same question I bought a 550lb pull fishing rare earth magnet & still won't open
so you guys are showing someone how to break into peoples safes.... Awesome!
Fantastic Video Guys. Keep up the great work. Nick.
Sentry should fix this embarrassment and proactively replace every customer safe [free of charge] affected by this design flaw.
He could offer higher security mechanisms, but why should he do that for free? Sentry is not his company, and he has had zero involvement in its poor design, so why should he offer his upgrades for free?
why its a fire safe, security was not in mind during design
im 13 n i jus learned how to get my xbox back lol ahahha
SUPREME TEAM lol,
Same, it feels good man.
My mom's n dad cut the Male end of the cord, replaced it for a female one and the spliced the 2 males together to make a "pigtail "for the tv.
Pigtail was a foul word around our place gauranteed to create a problem and stress
same nigga execp i gettin my money back
Just don't put the magnet near your xbox or you will fry the electronics
If there is key function included or in addition to the combo pad, will you need to pick open the key cyl first?
does this work on older sentry safe models? i have one in my garage that i gave up on getting into until i saw this video. i can provide a picture of it if will help.
great info video
You just taught everyone how to break into them. WTG!
pretty sure it is all over the place. I appreciate being made aware so I can stay away from this type of safe
what brands of safe to you recommend to store cash ,gold and silver bullion/coins???
Could you please send me the link where can I buy the magnet for $ 15
"I just play with the wires until it opens",thanks sentry that sounds like quality security.
where do you get the magnet from on ebay? I searched but can't seem to find one the same size
You guys should try using a hard drive magnet from the older hard drives pre sata.
Thank you! What is a good type of safe to buy to protect against theft? Any reccommendations?
guns safes
Would it work on SFW123FTC sentry safe its like yours except the handle bar is grey and it has an inside shelf
What comparable safe would you recommend?
On the SFW082et electronic floor safe is the solenoid in the same location?
does this happen with combination safes?
I have a Sentry Safe DA3831. I bought a $5 95 lb pull magnet. Is the solenoid on the DA3831 in the same place as yours?
how do you do it for the same safe but not the digital but the dial
any suggestions on a affordable water/fire/magnet proof safe? or at least the best bang for your buck?
so now which is safe that i can use?
My safer is fairly old mabybe about 25 years, I tried your magnet approach but it did not work. I even tapped it with a rubber mallet to see if maybe it was stuck as it is so old, but that did not work either. Placed the magnet exactly where you suggested and moved it around a few time but it did not open. Here are the numbers I see pasted on the door A5865 and AK395372. Not sure what there are? Any suggestions? Maybe I got a good safe from Sentry? Last time I was in Vancouver was for the Wordl's fair. Brother live there!
Mr. Locksmith... do you have any recommendations for a firearms safe? (available in Canada...) that is more of a challenge to open?
GREAT VIDEO.. WHICH SAFE DO YOU RECOMMEND.. I LIKE THAT SIZE.. I'AM IN SAN DIEGO.. ARE THE ONES THAT ARE NOT DIGITAL BETTER???
I have a safe like this one except my keypad wire was cut so I can't use it anymore. Been locked out of it for almost 2 years. Does this method work if their is no power going into the safe?
THANKS! I had the combination, but even after replacing batteries it didn't open. Used the 9 volt battery trick and it opened immediately. Apparently there is a small disc battery that also needs replacing.
If it uses power to retain its user programmable memory, that's bad. That means you could short the battery terminals and clear it's memory. ...leaving just the factory default code (typically 1234, 1001, 9999 or 0000) to open it.
My battery is dead and I cannot figure out how to open it to replace it. I no longer have the key. Any suggestions?
does this work for a phoenix-fs0440 safe?
I have a combination does this still apply?
all you need to do to fix this is replace the magnetic solenoid element with a strictly copper coil that is energized at the same time as the outer coil.
Does that work on the lock without the battery installed? In case the battery line is fully empty or taken away to disable the pin code?
I have this safe with a both digital key lock and a physical key, will the physical key help the security?
will a Neodymium Magnets wii do it to
This will probably work on any electronic safe or lock. Solenoid protection is only good if thief does not know the direction of the solenoid. They should change it to electric motor latch, where motor has to make like 10 turns to unlock and add a reed switch to detect an attempt and time lock for like an hour.
Ok I have a quick question what would be the best kind of house locks you can buy for the money and whats the best kind of security safe you can buy for the money
how big is that disk and were did u get it
what is the best safe to buy to safely protect your treasures in your opinion
Thanks for the video, i was just about to buy centrysafe and put all my valuables. Now i am thinking of buying Bighorn Heavy Duty 6.9 Cu Ft Safe, 60 min Fire Protection with The Securam ECSL-601 electronic lock with UL certified swingbolt lock design, do you think swingbolt is good enough and magnet hack proof? Please suggest.
A Buglary victim.
Is the mechanical version secure? Meaning, does only electronic version have these problems?
Do the batteries in the safe have to be charged for the magnet trick to work?
Does this work with the safe that also needs a key because i lost both my key and code
How about a dial combination sentry safe can your magnet open it or is this just for digital sentry safe?
what's the best brand, kind of safe to get then that doesn't cost a ton
Can you open a bigger same with one of those magnets
Do you have a safe that you recommend for the common homeowner?
Hi Mr.Locksmith, would your magnet solution work on Sentry safe that has both the lock and the electronic key pad?
Hen Sum The Rare Earth Magnet will only work on the solenoid. The mechanical lock has to have a key, be picked open or physical dmg to the lock.
So what safe is a good safe to buy?
I THINK THAT YOU ARE AMAZING MY FREIND WATCHED YOU VIDEUO AND GOT IT THANK YOU
I just started thinking of how many people have piece of mind and think no one can get to their valuables...when the truth is anyone, absolutely ANYONE!!!!...! Can get in the safe, anytime they want to. That truly makes me sad. It's true when they say," NOTHING IS SAFE ANYMORE!"
good
Hey this is a really stupid question but I'm terrible with this stuff.
How do you open this safe with the magnetic key? Because idk the combination but I have the key and it isn't opening.
Or do you need both?
Mine is sentry combination safe, does it work?
How do you protect the contents inside, like money and papers from getting mold? The silica gel packet that comes with the safe does not work. I found mold all over my stuff.
If the battery is dead does it still open?
When will the blackbox be back in stock on the website?
Thank you, time to case some joints.
What's a good fireproof safe of this size then :(
What is the best safe then?
How about if you use the key? there is a key to double lock it besides the entry panel..???
Thanks for showing people how to open my safe
He is just showing people that sentry safes are really crappy
Do most (or all) sentry safes use the same magnetic solenoid? Is this magnet a good investment to open these things? I own a locksmith shop and was wondering if this is a good tool to have.
If you want to keep your valuables safe from thieves you have to buy a real security safe. Anything under 1000 dollars is probably not going to keep someone from breaking in to the safe. There's a reason most of those lock boxes are labeled as "fire safes". Not to mention anything that isn't bolted down or too heavy to carry is just making things easier for the thief by putting all your valuables into one convenient location inside an easy to carry portable box that can be broken into later.
How do you open a combination safe
Nice! Great video!
Try that on the Sentry Safe SFW123UDC with audible intrusion alarm. Can you do the same without tripping the alarm? I only ask because I just purchased the SFW123UDC model.
I am a locksmith and I can open anything. The alarm is ok but again, with time and skill anything can be defeated.
What I’m trying to figure out then, is... 1. What’s the best fire proof safe to use then? 2. What’s the best security safe to get? 3. Can vaultek gun safes be broken into?
Thank you so much - you have given me hope. My electronic locking mechanism is dead and really need to get in. Will give this a try.
did you have any luck with this technique? My keypad also stopped working, even after a battery change, and I'm trying to figure out how to get in. I tried messing with the wires and a battery, but no luck...
+Matt Atienza I did not have a rare earth magnet strong enough to pull the mechanism AND apparently I placed my heavy iron magnet in the wrong spot. Sadly, I ended up destroying the safe by using a large crowbar to get my stuff. In my case, the release mechanism was near the hinge on top, not the other side. A strong magnet in the right spot (including the one I used) may have worked as it appeared pretty simple. If you use the magnet, try it in different areas around the door and striking it to break the mechanism free if it's stuck.
so do u think a 300lbs pull on century safe model # sfw205fyc
What would happen if one would change the type of metal on the solenoid to stainless steel , spring and pin??
So this is an electronic safe. Can you also open a combination locked safe as easliy? If so, the safe is pretty useless when someone has a magnet. What about the fire rating and waterproof capabilities the safe has. If those arent useless then the safe is prepared to keep items safe in case of a fire...etc
what if it is the same sentry safe but all mechanical, spin dial ... no keypad
has anyone tryed this? does it really work
I have a s3517 sentry I tried magnet not work is solenoid in a different spot? I got safe after my mother passed but all paperwork for it is locked inside..
thank you Mr locksmith in your opinion what's the best safe that resist fire and hard to crack in
Monssif Nexus Several Fire and burglary safes that are UL rated. Eagle is one of many:
www.mrlocksmith dot com/burglary-fire-safes-we-carry/
I wonder if this has been fixed by the company or if they make the safes the same way.
Hi Mr. Locksmith I found your video and as my 2 year old sentry safe decided not to accept my code after I replaced the battery. My magnet is arriving in 3 days and if it does not work I will give you a call as I am from Vancouver as well.
Okay, but can you still do this to open it even if the key is set in the locked position?
Are the newer ones this easy to open? This video is 7 years old
What is a good safe to get that's not too expensive
Thanks for showing a bunch of criminals how to break into our safes.
+Brandon Lorenzen If they wanted to get in badly enough they wouldn't have needed this video to figure out how. Bolt your secure (not fire) safe to something solid, and store anything heat/water sensitive in a smaller fire safe inside of it. Or if it's not valuable but you still want it safe from fire/water, then get a small fire safe specifically for that.
Yeah Brandon
They aren't intelligent enough to even know what Neodymium is until someone tells them on youtube. Sorry, but its a fact.
Ben B yes, but not everyone is going to know exactly where the solenoid is and this video shows you exactly where it is and how to disable it. These guys are enabling thieves. Even if this isn’t meant to be a secure safe, it has a lock on it which means it’s designed to keep people out. Again, these guys just made it easy for someone to steal whatever is in your safe.
Cheddar Bob
Locks only keep honest people out. If someone wants in bad enough the lock isn't going to stop them
If a magnet does not work, I opened/destroyed my Sentry safe in about 45 minutes with common tools
Please help me, trying to open a Sentry safe S-3460, have the key but combination is not working. Thanks.
Hi, I have a Sentry S5741 and I can't open it by using the magnetic. I have the code and key and it's been working fine before but now it doesn't seem to work. I also check to make sure the battery still good. Do you know the location of the solenoid of this model? Thanks
Hi, what is lowest magnet pull (LB) do you use in open the safe?
2000 lbs
Was just about to buy this type of safe, thanks to your video I made a much better investment. 👍
whats the gauss on that thing?
I think they fixed the magnetic trick. I have 2inch plastic over where the magnetic would go
How hard would it be to modify the safe by adding a bit of magnetic shielding between the solenoid and the door panel to prevent this?
+Eric Sentner hey eric, if you ever hear about actual magnetic shielding, please be sure to let me know. I don't think there has ever been such a thing discovered at all .... od tell me it you hear of something like this ... anyone else know about magnetic shielding? inventorz at yahoo dot com
+Steve Oh I think its better to also put a gravity shield between the safe and solenoid, to balance any extra effect of the magnetic shield.
Has this been corrected since video first aired? Is there a fix... like replacing the solenoid with a different metal?
Sentry added a small magnet to the inside of the safe but we figured out a work around quickly.
Rock it back and forth pushing down on the handle at the same time.
I have a century safe from like 8 years ago and it has a skeleton type key and I bet it can't be opened without a key if you know a way I want to know how I've been trying to pick it for fin for years
IDONTGIVE AFUCKWHATYOUTHINK Order a Jet from Sentry Safe
Mr. Locksmith, I have the TW8-331. Looks very very similar to your example in this particular video but larger. Nonetheless, I am in a jam. A battery exploded inside the digital housing and broke the battery casing in such a manner that I simply cannot replace the batteries as there is no housing to complete the circuit. I do NOT possess the key, rather unfortunately (it's inside...duh, I know). I know the digital combo but again, the battery issue. That is what brought me here. I bought the magnet but no luck. I have tried and tried and tried. I am beyond upset as I need my DD214 (military separation papers) for a job interview. Does this trick not work with no juice? Am I wasting my time? Thoughts. P.S. I have pictures if it will help.
Bloody hell, 6 years and these guys haven't responded to this boke? Hope you got your papers out and nailed the interview mate!
The next video needs to be how to pick locks. I dont want to have to kick a door😏
