So, I was given a 14 gun sentry safe and have the combination. We used the to open it before it was transported to my home.
Once we got it to the house and set up in a temporary location, we attempted to open it and it refuses to cooperate. We follow the instructions to the letter and I am confident that we are using the correct code. The handle acts like it wants to turn but it only rotates about 1/4 an inch before it stops. It acts as though something is hung up and stopping the bolts from retracting.
Aside from damaging the safe, does anyone have any ideas? I've tried applying pressure to the handle and pushing the door in while entering the combo as well as reversing the direction and any other trick the interwebb has offered up.
Any suggestions?
