An owner I am doing a renovation for recently bought this house with a safe in the basement. Included are some pics. Besides toppling it over and breaking into it from behind I would like to pick your collective brains for ideas. It's the size of a typical gun safe.

Mag drill, borescope.

Not a bad idea, haven't used a bore scope for a safe lock before. Amateur friendly process?

>>1153562

That's the last resort, just figured I'd ask for other diy ideas that won't damage the possible contents of the safe.

Image is sideways, didn't rotate it before posting from my phone. The safe sits on the floor, made me chuckle though

Attack the side with an angle grinder

Wouldn't grinding or even torch cutting carry the risk of burning or damaging possible contents of the safe?

Sparks flying inside during the process

No shit...

I am unsure if what you are asking, do you want it opened? I have one of similar vintage, the key is the littlest thing ever and I know big isnt always better but it doesnt look like much, I am sure a modern day locksmith can pick it.

Dont damage it though, they are not worth that much but its a nice antique. The door is blood thick though, once it sits in the frame it is the same depth as the back and sides, the inside of that is at least three times as thick as the 'door frame', it has another lockable drawer inside at the bottom.

If you have to destroy it, the hinges are absolutely the weakest link, use a tungsten wedge.
>>
>>1153580

Access to the possible contents is all that is desired.

Owner has no interest in keeping it and no one I know wants it. From my own experience with these safes, having used them, taking the hinges off won't work because the latch on the front engages bolts to slide from the door to the housing.

I guess you could try exposing the locking mechanism by drilling holes in the right places on the door. That way you could maybe circumvent the lock mechanism and open the lock.
Otherwise prepare your anus and buy like 500 angle grinder cutting discs.

>>1153559
How do you know it isn't empty?
>>
>>1153584
Why don't you contact the manufacturer of the safe?
There was a thread like this a few years back, guy wanted to use the safe for himself and see what was in it. Contacted the manufacturer, they fixed it right up for him.

Had two rare dragunov rifles in it that he could have legitimately claimed ownership of and sold for $50k. He was such a cuck he was literally shaking and his wife was going to leave him if he didn't destroy them immediately, even though they were totally legal to own.

Drill the lock

Use a diamond tip drill. Then a flat head should unlock it.

adding to this, there exists an extremely good tool for safecracking but the name escapes me right now and googling doesn't help
It's a contraption you stick to the dial and plug a cable from it to an iPad. It starts rolling the dial and shows you a live graph on the screen with potential gates.
It cost like 3000 USD but it was pretty much guaranteed to give you a good starting point
>>
>>1153559

if its a cheap shitty safe, the security is all in the door. the side walls may be just thin steel and fireboard. Burglars cut through cheap safe sidewalls with fireaxes. If its not a cheap safe, you or a locksmith will need to drill out the door locking pins individually.
