Apparently I’m not the only one who forgets combinations, because there’s some useful material online about how to circumvent this problem. Trying for a less damaging solution this time, I tinkering with my Army buddy’s system for awhile, unsuccessfully, and then turned to the internet. Physical force usually works well, and the most common way of removing a troublesome padlock is still a good pair of boltcutters. No one ever mentioned how many doors they ruined before someone told them the sane way to do things. That’s certainly one way to do it, but they were very embarrassed when they found out the manager had a key in his desk that opens them all from underneath the card console.

At one hotel where I worked, I noticed a couple of employees kicking a guest’s door in when the battery in the electronic key reader failed. In maintenance work, at hotels and resorts, I’ve seen simpler approaches to cracking locks that got in the way. I tried to figure out how he did it, but my fingertips apparently aren’t that sensitive. I have known several people over the years who found them simple to outwit, including a fellow soldier in Alaska many years ago who could crack any combination lock in the building in under a minute, by touch. I usually have problems even when I have the combination written down and the padlock operation instructions in plain view.

My experience with opening combination locks isn’t full of success. Yesterday it seemed to me like a good afternoon project to try and crack the lock and put it back into use. Since then the lock has sat on a shelf and I have no idea where I might have put the combination and instructions. I put the combination slip in my wallet, knowing it had a useful lifetime of about three days, and it did survive long enough to unlock the van. Several years ago when I moved up here, I needed a U-Haul van to carry my tools and bought a red Master Sphero Combination Padlock for securing the van door during the trip.
