How To Decode The Sparrows Vault (Default Configuration) [134]

I show how you decode the Sparrows Vault with the default settings (two numbers to decode). Sorry for the long video 😉
See part 2 where I decode the Vault set to 3 numbers: • How To Decode the Spar...

Wow. That isnt at all what any other videos showed when using this product. Thank you for explaining this so well!

[@Keymaster]

Thank you, I hope it helps someone.

Now that, Keymaster, is a detailed, well planned step-by-step explanation of how to open the vault. I don't have one yet, but this video sparks my interest in not only the Sparrows vault, but maybe even other dial manipulations. You didn't skip any of the steps in your actions or in your thought process at the time while trying to follow the instructions. This is great work and definitely a keeper.

Thank you very much for your feedback, I really appreciate that!

You were a great teacher on this,but I got lost. I need to keep re-watching you do this. You were Brilliant my friend, absolutely beautiful. CHEERS Mate

Thank you brother! 😊

Thanks mate 😎

Thank you for your explanation. I think everyone agrees that the Sparrow instructions are not just confusing but absolutely hopeless and one would think that Sparrow would check out all reviews concerning their product and heed the fact that the instructions need a serious change. I’m afraid that when your commentary went between their poor instructions and your own explanation it got even more confusing at times, but still a good video.

Thank you for your feedback

[@chriscapune7873]

Great video!!! I too got confused at the same point in the instructions. Will go back to my charting to get my second number. Thank you for the clarification!!! 🐈👍🐈👏🐾😷🐈

[@Keymaster]

Oh that would be nice if I could help you 😁

[@chriscapune7873]

Keymaster I think it will!!!! Waiting on a change key and instructions on the Sargent and Greenleaf “safe” lock that I will be sending you. I know you will enjoy it!!! 👍🐈👍🐾👏😷

Thanks for pointing me to this video, Chris!

[@iWhacko]

Wow... I had the Vault since january (was a christmas present for myself), but I hadn't found a decent tutorial on how to open it. The instructions are very unclear and indeed miss some information. I did find some sources that helped me along am little. But this is much better. Thanks!

[@Keymaster]

Thank you, it's great that I could help you! Have a nice day!

[@mattt4080]

Thanks for the tutorial. I kept getting stuck on the second wheel because the Sparrows instructions confused me to no end.

[@Keymaster]

Glad I could help. The instructions for the second number confused me too.

[@dazevers]

Great video Keymaster. I’ve got a sergeant and green leaf, safe combination locks. I will save this video for when I have time to play with these locks. Have a great week mate.

[@Keymaster]

Thanks mate. I have a Sargent and Greenleaf too, it's much more difficult to see the differences in the contact points, it's only a quarter of a number. I plan to make a video in the future.

[@davidulvestad2944]

I bought this vault and saved your video so I could learn how to open a safe, as I've always wanted to learn. I'm commenting here because you seem to explain things better than the other 5 people that made a video about this exact vault lock. I learned how to decode the default settings, and I thank you for that. Though, I must ask you; what do you do for the next level up? In the two videos you posted about the Sparrows Vault, you seem to believe that the difficulty goes from beginner to expert. It doesn't. There's the double wheel feeler thing, and the triple wheel feeler thing with groves in it as the 2nd and 3rd levels of this vault. I've used the beginner method (method in this video) on my vault probably 7 times now after setting a random combo. I checked every 2 and a half numbers for more play in the contact points and nothing. The contact points stay at 29 and 42 the whole time. At this point, I'm left with thinking that 1. I messed up resetting the combo somehow, 2. Level 2 is just very, very, very touchy so you have to be very good to notice a hair of difference in the contact points, 3. The third wheel doesn't actually bind first, or 4. I have to follow your video for decoding all 3 wheels (which relies on us having the first number that I can't get) somehow. Can you please consider helping me out? I've asked in a SafeCracking Reddit group, but nobody's responded since I posted it 2 weeks ago. Thanks! -David Ulvestad

[@Keymaster]

Thank you, I'm glad my video helped you. The contact points are always the same, no matter what combination the lock has. On the more difficult levers that don't have steps, the differences in contact points are really tiny but noticeable when you make a diagram. The difference can be as little as a tenth of a number. Once you know the lock combination, you can search for it to familiarize yourself with it. With high-quality safe locks, it takes a lot of practice to find the differences.

[@davidulvestad2944]

@@Keymaster I’ll take the hinges off and take a look at what was troubling me, and keep setting random combinations and checking when I can’t find them until I know how. Great advice, thank you!!

[@LockPickingCoalMiner]

Well done really cool video! Thanks for sharing.

[@RoonPicker]

great follow up to your previous video

[@Keymaster]

Thank you! 😊

[@jodyhaberfield5308]

my contact points on mine are between 33 and 45, is this normal too?

[@brandonmiles8174]

Mine are as well, and I was wondering this after I watched Lock Manipulator and this video, but I think they just are where they are. I believe my exact contact points after lifting all the wheels are 33 and 45 (maybe 44, I don't have it right in front of me)

[@realtaiter3991]

Thanks hopefully I will be able to crack mine now.

It started so good, and then it was fast forward and lost information I thought could help me

[@abelaxen]

@11:25 "It says:". Then you don't do what it says. Then you make up your own technique without explanation. Lousy vid. Only makes things worse.
