I’ve tried all the other 1m+ view videos where all they relied on was shackle tensioning and none of them worked. After being super close to just tossing this into the trash…THIS was the only video that helped me crack open my lock!!! Not going to lie, I was giving up hope until the very last, 16th possible combo cracked that baby open 😅 I’m still in shock that it finally unlocked - thank you so much! Math wins in the end!

Thanks so much! This was the only way I could figure out my lock combo. It was really easy, since my first number also had the same remainder as you and my guess numbers were also 0 and 3. The hardest thing was the sticky number, it was either 7 or 32. I tried 7 first, and it worked. When my lock actually opened, I nearly sobbed in happiness. Now I have a functional lock!

40 years ago I stopped using my lock, lost the piece of paper with the combo on it and forgot it. I tried a number of KZbin methods, unsuccessfully. They probably work in an experienced hand but your method appears to be less subjective. The first time I tried it I missed the sticky number by 1. I tried it again and got my eight combo options. I looked at my list and decided to "use the force". I picked the one that felt the best and it opened! Vestigial memory I suspect. Thanks!

You do not round you need to find the "remainder" If you do not know how to do that, consult google or you can also find a "remainder calculator" online. It is important that you are finding the remainder because that is how you will proceed from there.

To everybody that needs help calculating the remainder: A remainder is what is leftover from division. For example, 18/4 = 4.5. The .5 is what is "left over" after it has been divided by 4. The way to calculate the remainder is to take the .5 and multiply it by 4 (the number you divided by) to get 2. Therefore, 18/4 can be expressed as 4 remainder 2. This works for all numbers (including negatives). Another example is 18/8 = 2.25. 0.25*8 = 2, so 18/8 is 2 remainder 2. Hope this helps!

I watched your video one full time and repeated steps within to rewind, but I am still have trouble on your step 2 for finding guess numbers. While I was at 0 and turning counterclock wise and it landed and stoped always at 37.5 now when going clockwise it stops at 38.5 and that doesn't seem right to me since we must land on a number beyond 0 and below 11 right? Or would that be right since in your document you had 2.5 and 3.5 which that number would be 3 so in my case is my first guess number 38? Rounded off between the 37.5 and 38.5?

Will this method work with other brands like "dudley" and "abus" dial combination locks? I have all 3 of these brands, and the master and dudley I can shim faster than you can dial the first 2 numbers in, but the abus has a protrusion that fits into a groove in the shackle making it unshimable unless you have a VERY stiff shim with a slot in the center. (Edit is for fixing typos from auto correct)

Dude. I can't believe this actually worked. I kept going to videos that said no math and couldn't find one that used math, although I wanted to, (as an engineer, I trust my math skills far more than my hands and feeling), and finally stumbled on yours. This is exceptional, it worked on the very first try 🤯

Thank you so much, it saved the lock my wife tried to throw into the trash bin. The first number was the mistake for my case, the real number is actually +1. The locking position for the 1st number is not stable enough. Or it's actually crossed the 1st number then you feel the bump. Anyway, the only working method on KZbin. Sincere appreciations.

How did you ever come up with this? What do you mean exactly by the term, “remainder?” I don’t understand that at all. What if your first number isn’t divisible by four? Mine is 13. 13÷4 is 3.25. Should I round down to 3?
@HelpfulLockPicker

I should have in the description with were this information came from. I did not invent this technique. 13 /4 is 3 with a remainder of 1. I recommend google to look up what they are. It is an easy concept but might not be taught in schools anymore

This method worked for several steel colored Master Locks. However, I have a green and a blue Master Lock and both only give one clear guess number. In both cases that number does not supply a solution with the same remainder. Is there something mechanically different about these locks which requires a slightly different technique?

This method works well overall. I previously decoded a dial combination lock that I received from a neighbor using a different method and it surprisingly worked. I tried it again with this method and it got the second and third digits correct but it was quite aways off from my first number. I tried the sticky gate method multiple times, but it would never stick on the correct number. A lot of good work was put into this, but I'm not sure this method would work 100% of the time.
