Cary Safe Mechanism

Forgot how to dial the combination on that old safe? Think you got the right numbers but the handle is stuck? What safe should you buy? Ask your safe questions here!

Help finding a Cary combo mechanism. Any ideas who sells antique parts. Note I'm a novice and don't know if this should be a 3 or 4 ring. Thank you for your help.

Hi, This is a Yale Y-6. The curb/wheel pack has 3 wheels.

The only Cary safe I've had anything to do with had 4 wheels. Exactly this lock, but 4 wheels

Bronze case? Don't understand your question...but the safe appears to be steal or a ferrous metal

My question was directed at Käsekopf. Cary used bronze Y-6s with 4 wheels in their jeweller's chests. Jeweller's chests are small burglary safes that were mounted inside bigger fire safes.

It was painted black like this one, I did not check if it had bronze underneath. I suspect not.
