Is it just a safe that has frozen up and refused to unlock, or do you not know the combination?
Stars can be drilled open and made reusable by a pro.

We had a local locksmith do it. It could take several hours. Afterwards he can plug the hole and repair the safe head.

I've done the same myself, took about 45 minutes, but I didn't repair the head since the customer had a spare.thoffmanjr said:
I don't think the Star heads can be "cracked" like you see someone open a safe on TV because of the way the tumblers work. There's nothing to "feel" that corresponds to the numbers as you're turning the dial and finding where each level hits the next - I tried it once with the back off, and things "hit" in the same place regardless of the set combination.
