my friend just recently flushed her car, work, house, and lock box keys down a toliet. She knew that I have been picking up lockpicking so she asked me if i could help her out and try to pick the lock box. She has her important documents in it like her passport, birth certificate, etc.
The box says on it SentrySafe Keep\Safe. I am sure the brand is SentrySafe and the model is KEEP/SAFE.
If any one has any advice to help me get this open for her please let me know.
Thanks

So before everyone starts flaming you,
Your ONLY recourse in a situation like this is a locksmith.
If you can't pick it yourself, no-one here is going to tell you how to break into a specific strongbox, nothing personal, it's just too risky.
And just to play the skeptic, I'm smelling something a little fishy here.
If you dropped keys down a toilet, you wouldn't flush, and even if you did, I doubt that they would get flushed, they're too heavy and "fine".
If she flushed all her keys, why didn't she get the locksmith who would've had to come around to rekey her doors to open the box while she was there.
Sorry, I'm just naturally suspicious.

As said before, you won't get much help with safe opening here in the open forum. Sorry for the inconvenience your friend may have but the safest way to help her out would be to recommend a locksmith or even a plumber.
One of the two will be able to help. Also, if you did the foot work for her, you just may find yourself in her good graces.

we were at a rest stop right on the IL and WI border and she had to go to the bathroom. so i went in and did my thing too. when i got out of the mens room. she is already there and tells me she flushed her keys down the toliet. she told me that she put her keys on the coat rack, and when she flushed she reached for her keys and her finger barely stroked them. as the toilet was going down she tried to grab them but it was too late. as for the heavy part those toilets were pretty strong and sounded like a hurrican was shredding through the rest stop. i thought she was joking so i went to the vending machine. after that i relized she wasnt. so we got a hold of some of the maintainece guys that worked there. ( this is when i get angry during the story) they said that they couldnt do anything because all the traps for the toilets are in one room, and there are too many pipes and he didnt know what trap it was. i even offered to help him check traps, but he said no he just didnt know how.
finally we called her car dealer, and got the keyless entry into her car, and got the spare key and we were on our way again.

well after a few weeks of researching i just tried to pick the box again, and was sucessful, it was a lot easier then expected and i think easier than some masterlocks.
so i now have a lockbox, since she doesnt have her keys, and she said i could have it if i picked it, and the more important fact here is that her important belongings were returned to her safely.
well just wanted to let you guys know.
