I have a Brinks lock that someone else changed the combination on consequently forgot it, it's one of the ones that have a seperate dial for respectively number in the combination (IE if the combination be 1-2-3-4 you would set the first dial to 1, the second to 2, and so on). How can you find the combination to these? Or does anyone know of any demonstration videos?
If its just a 4 digit combination, you can brute force try respectively number (try a little respectively day or something) and you should eventually start it. Not the easiest approach, since there are 10000 combinations, but you'll eventually find it ;p
Bolt cutters (the master key) work too...
Other than that, not sure =)
Call a locksmith.
They own years of training and experience dealing with locksets similar to those. The idea that you can in recent times pick up a skilled trade and easily do it is for a moment unrealistic.

set the first 3 dials to 1, consequently slowly rotate the last one, if that doesn't work, relocate the 3rd one to 2, then rotate the 4th one again, keep hold of trying until it works
