How does a safe combination lock work?

Inside the safe lock’s dial are steel wheels programmed to align only when each is turned to a predetermined number on the dial outside. When that happens, a gap or ‘fence’ is created and this allows a bar known as the ‘nose’ to drop into a slot in the cam that slides the door bolt in and out. When the nose is in the cam slot, an outside handle connected to the cam can be turned, retracting the bolt and opening the door.
