How to open Sentry V330 with combination and key?
3 Digit Combination Lock

- NOTE: If your safe DOES NOT have a key, skip Step 3.
- Turn the dial to zero.
- Insert your key and turn it until the plunger pops out.
- Turn the dial to the left (counterclockwise) three times to the first number of the combination (pass the first number of your combination two times, stopping on it the third time).
- Turn the dial to the right (clockwise) two times to the second number of the combination (pass your second number once, stopping on it the second time).
- Turn the dial to the left to the last number (stop the first time on your last number).
- Pull the handle down; the door should open.
If this still does not open the safe, refer to the following page for additional different types of Sentry Safe models:

Sentry Model 1610 Won't Open
Hello,

There is a lock and there is a latch.
You can latch the safe without locking it and unlocking it does not unlatch it.
After you unlock it, then you must press up on the spring loaded latch while (this important) pressing down on the cover to releast the pressure on the latch hook, allowing it to move out of the way. After the latching hook is out of the way, you can release the pressure on the lid and it will open. You can't see the latch hook as it drops down from the lid, into the front wall of the safe where it engages a post, but perhaps you can imagine what it looks like.
Mine will not unlatch, even though it is unlocked, unless I press down on the lid to give it clearance first. There is quite a bit of spring in the plastic that this safe is constructed out of. It works against you when you try to open it and close it.
I can take digital photos of the mechanism if this description does not help.

Try the factory code shown at the front of your manual. You can find the a user manual on the Sentry website.
What is the
sentry 6380
I have cracked many codes by just feel and using the lever to feel the drop! The first right turn after three complete revolutions of the dial has one long pause and the rest short! After the long pause is the first in the combination, the left one same thing after one complete revolution, then right again pulling the lever down every drop meticulously. DONE!
