As stated I need a locksmith to open a safe that we have lost the combination and key for. Are there any recommendations for the SoCal area
Perhaps West Coast Safes on Ontario has a recommendation (800) 933-3515. Used them for a move a while backView attachment 1399998

I was thinking wheel of death too... my safe is a bear to open and I have the combo, usually takes 3 tries.I'm a bit worried so many of you know guys that can open safes...and here I'm thinking to myself "Well first you have to pull the anchors from the concrete, then peel the bottom layer with a cutoff wheel..."

That's what I tried to do with the above safe I mentioned. It turns out it was a safe inside of a safe. The outer safe was the fire rated portion and the inner safe is 2" of steel. Never seen another safe like it.I'm a bit worried so many of you know guys that can open safes...and here I'm thinking to myself "Well first you have to pull the anchors from the concrete, then peel the bottom layer with a cutoff wheel..."

I believe it's still doable, but messy and time consuming. Mag base drill and coring saws. Much easier to have a pro come out.That's what I tried to do with the above safe I mentioned.

San Bernardino/ Wrightwood areaGet a more exact location.. there’s safe crackers everywhere..
It isn’t as hard as you’d think.
Hopefully I do not need to damage the actual safe to accomplish what I'm looking for. It's only a $650 safe so don't want to spend much more than that to get it open.The guy that opened my safe drilled a tiny hole and then inserted a tiny camera that he was able to control where it was pointing. He was able to watch the back of the lock while he manipulated the combo, and he could tell what the previous combo was by doing this. Very interesting to watch. Guy made $300.00 in 15 minutes.
Yours might be easier to get into than mine. I am going to use my mig to fill in the hole in mine and just grind it down and repaint the entire safe.Hopefully I do not need to damage the actual safe to accomplish what I'm looking for.
