Hi everyone, I am looking for information and a source for a cruciform key blank for a Sentry V530 safe that I had given to me. I sent a few private messages with no response so far, still hopeful though. I found an article on LP101 about using an XYP4 key blank but have been unable to find any. Yeah, I could just drill the safe but this one is in pristine condition. Not in a rush to get it open, plenty of customer work to do. Any info is appreciated! :drool:

The keyed lock can be picked one quarter turn at a time

Thank You, I will get it open yet, found some keys online from a few different sources, Next up is impressioning a key which I think will be the hardest part of this opening. I will post pictures of the process later.

Manipulate the lock through the process of elimination, it's only a 3 wheel lock. Ideal for that process. Pick the lock 1/4 at a time.
