Victor safe no lever

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!

Well, good and bad news. Good news is Bob says he's confident he can get it open. Bad news is he's a bit out of my price range. Going to keep plugging away at it and see if I can get anywhere. Might call a few other people too depending on prices.

That is unfortunate but that kind of work is not cheap. I hope you find someone or have luck with the dialing orders we suggested. if you have the instructions written down from the previous owner, I would be curious to take a look at a photo of them in case I can spot something in the way they wrote them down. feel free to email me a photo of them if you feel comfortable doing so to squelchtone @ lockpicking101.com

I also looked at your original post and wonder if you have tried this way:

xx 2 LEFT
xx 2 RIGHT
xx 2 LEFT (instead of 2 RIGHT in your original post)
xx 1 RIGHT

best of luck and we are always happy to hear back from folks once they get their safe open, so keep us in mind and stop by any time.

I believe that was a typo on my part. the combo she gave me was 2R 2L 2R 1L. I will take a picture of it when I get home from work and email it to you.

There are quite a few people who manipulated their safe problem themself. The key is persistence.
