Hi all,Appreciate this may sound dodgy but its not lol.I bought my first house a few months ago which was previously owned by an old man that died about 8 months ago and the house itself was owned by an investment company.So anyway, it has one of these burton keyguard things next to the front door which I would quite like to use as I know there will be on day I forget my key! Its currently locked, and Ive no way of finding out the combination (unless given he is an old man you can suggest someone that he may have told that might disclose it to me- medical delivery company or carer even?!:S).
Now I know this seems far fetched, however after recently finding the instruction manual online I now know you can enter a passcode between 3-8 characters, BUT (the saving grace here) each character can only be used once. Ie the pad has numbers 0-9 and an A & B button- each of these buttons can only be used once and the order of which does not matter.Now, I know there will still be a multitude of combinations but as they dont have to be entered in order and no number can be repeated, I would hope the likely number of codes becomes abit more manageable (yes Im willing to spend 15 minutes a night for however long it takes to crack this thing rather than buy a new one lol).So Im simply wondering if by chance anyone has the brains to figure out the list of possible combinations available within this range??! Or if there is for whatever reason some kind of online calculator that would work this out for me? I literally just want a list of all the possibilities to work my way through, Im kind of expecting the code to not be any longer than 5 characters at first so Im hoping this may make it more manageable.Any thoughts??ThanksGrangey. Keysafes are usually installed for elderly/infirm people. If an emergency responder/police etc need access, they contact the call monitoring centre for the code- they do not usually have the code, they have to ask for it.To get the code you need to know who monitored the house- not easy but the local authority/housing association should know as they are likely to have been the ones who had it installed.
They will know who monitored the house and they will still have the code.If you get this far, you will have to prove you now own the property.Might be easier to just buy a new one, but the fact they are on the side of the house indicate to thieves etc that it's probably a vulnerable person living there- even though you're not, you may be making your property an attractive target. Thanks this is what I was looking for!However, Im not sure Im using it correctly!So if there are 12 'values' to choose from, 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,a,b and say I was looking for 3 value codes with no duplication, would I hit 'types to choose from= 12', 'number chosen = 3' 'order important= no' 'repetition allowed=no'? In this case giving me 220 possible options?Thanks for your input guys, I will certainly ask the neighbors to see if they can be any help but I also wonder how likely I am to find a past carer from over 8+ months ago which would have been notified of a patience decease who would still have a file available with a key code for access to their house thats all.

Using your flashlight, look for these bolt openings or holes. Step 2: Peer through the hole.Hold your flashlight to the hole then peek through it. If your safe has a two-hole style, you can peek through the opposite hole.Inside the safe, look for the back panel where the electronic part of the safe is placed.
It is easy to spot as it contains keypad and a few other control buttons. Step 3: Press the reset button.Look for a long, slim stick. You can use a straightened coat hanger for this purpose. But if the hokes are a bit smaller than a coat hanger, you can buy any stiff roll of wire in a nearby hardware store.Slide the wire through the hole and use it to press the red button in the keypad of your safe. After resetting the code, enter in your new password combination in the inner keypad.Afterward, use the wire to press the set button which you would usually find just beside the reset button. You will hear a beep that will signal that you are successful in replacing the safe combination. Step 4: Enter the new code at the safe’s exterior keypad.Now, you should enter the new code in the keypad located outside the door of your safe.
It should easily pop open after entering the code.If the safe still fails to open, you may have entered the wrong combination on the inner keypad of the safe.You need to repeat the steps and this time, make sure that you will be entering the correct code. Technique #2: The Dial TechniqueIf your digital safe has a dial, this is the best technique that you can use.What You Will Need:– Rubber MalletThis will be used to hit the safe.

Step #1: Turn the dial of the safe the wrong way.How should the dial of the safe be turned? The dial of most digital safes is turned clockwise. Whatever way your dial is turned, turn the dial the opposite way.If it is clockwise, turn the dial counterclockwise and vice versa.This simple move is made to ensure that the pin which is responsible for locking the sliding bolt will become free to move. Step #2: Hit the safe.This may sound funny or absurd, but this is part of the process. Using either your hand or a rubber mallet, hit the safe firmly.This is done to move the pin which is hindering the sliding bolt. Keep in mind that this effect will last for just a few seconds. Step #3: Turn the dial of the safe the correct way.Within a split second after hitting the safe, turn the dial the right way.
If the pin is down at the time you were able to turn the dial, you will be able to turn the dial all the way around and open the safe.Keep in mind that it may take a few attempts for you to succeed using this technique. The key here is proper timing.The pin must still be down by the time you turn the dial the right way for this to work.To know more about this technique, video.
