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!

[@HelpfulLockPicker]

Thank you for the kind words. This technique works very well assuming the lock uses the same internals

[@robertglenn6905]

Great instructional video. Far more comprehensive and clear than any of the other ones. Thanx for being able to explain this concisely and without marbles in your mouth!

[@HelpfulLockPicker]

Thank you for the kind words, I'm glad it helps!

[@vio7055]

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!

[@HelpfulLockPicker]

Thanks for sharing and in glad it helped!

[@kawlynlewis655]

We all know your lock combination now

[@sydricv]

I was really feeling hopeless about a combo lock I had, watched the video twice and after troubleshooting the first sticky number a couple of times I was finally able to get the formula down. I got the second number, it was the 8th number but it was a great feeling when it unlocked in my hands. Great video! I feel like I’ve become Charlize Theron from the Italian Job 😂

I’ve had a combo lock that I lost the combination to years ago. I was just about to give up and toss it until I tried this video. I was finally able to find the combination! (Of corse it was the last one I tired but I got it lol) thank you so much! Wonderful video

[@dennisklipa4141]

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!

[@blairblanks]

[@OniKidou]

One tip I can give you is that on a Master combination lock you're either gonna have all odd numbers or all even numbers for the combination. You'll never have a mix of odd and even numbers.

[@HelpfulLockPicker]

Thanks for sharing!

[@williamjones6053]

Damn straight ..

[@keithamsden3093]

This actually isn't true. I bought one yesterday that goes odd even odd. Of course, the second number is so loose there is a five digit range that works. So you could use all odds if you really wanted. :-P

[@michaelsebourn3425]

cool i learning still beginner

[@simpleminds7184]

Keith Amsden thats kind of the joke, they all have tolerances of 2 so... they are all either odd or even because it’s +/- 1

[@bjharada]

I had never tried decoding a combination lock before. My friend gave me one that he didn't know the combo to, so I decided to try this decoding procedure. After several attempts, I found I was using the wrong sticky number until I viewed your other video about decoding the first number only. Then tried the math on that sticky number and lo and behold the lock magically opened. Thank you for the very insightful videos. They make this very fun and satisfying.

[@MoonLiteNite]

yeah all i can get is the sticky number, clear as day. My guy locks in right between 1 and 3. But no matter what i do, nothing else locks in place, no matter how much tension i use. Shackle releases and pulls up a lot as soon as i hit that 1-3 spot. No "guess numbers" or anything.

[@HelpfulLockPicker]

Are you using a Master Lock brand lock? Also how old is it? Sometimes the older the lock gets the less feedback you will get

[@MoonLiteNite]

@@HelpfulLockPicker Just was notified of your reply. It isn't master lock, it is one of those offbrands that look 100% the same. Down to the little arrow and design around it. Guessing that is why it isn't working. But using this method with true master locks does work :)

Yeah it doesn't work on all master locks but I would say it works about 75percent of the time. I hope you check ot out.

So, I got to Part B, and got my number from my code to be 11 after adding 5. I divided 11 by 4 and got 2.75, should I round up to 3?

[@HelpfulLockPicker]

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.

[@lilmookieesquire]

Remainder is 11/4 = (4x2=8 remainder of 3)

It Worked!!!!! I must have seen a ton of videos using different methods and kept trying them over and over and was about to just give up but I like a challenge and kept having an itch to get that combo and the mathematical formula in this method worked!!! Thanks so much.

[@Staceyjiang]

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.

[@powerangov8793]

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!

[@UnknownVir]

Tried 5 other videos and while they all gave me the first number, none of them were actually close on the other two. I couldn't tell the difference between the two options but it ended up only taking me 5 tries. I've had this lock for years and would just occasionally try some combinations seeing if I could get it open, thanks for finally giving me the answer!

[@HelpfulLockPicker]

Thank you for the kind words and I am glad it helped!

[@itsamemario444]

My Brinks had a solid sticking point at 29 after many many hours i shimmied it open and looked at the physical disks. Turns out you need to subtract 5 on my lock and then the math finally works out to get the right numbers. Tried on my master lock and easily opened it using the guide so great work there.

[@HelpfulLockPicker]

That is strange but Brinks coild have a slightly different mechanism. There are a few locks like the Bell ones which are even easier to decode. Either way congrats on the open!

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.

Woohoo! Back again with another lock and bingo! This time I had a bit trouble on that first number. Couldn't tell which number it was really on. It was the lower of the two.

This method worked and after going through all the steps it tuned out to be the first possible set of numbers.

Found a locked master lock in the trash and using this video I found the combination, so it definitely works.
