I have a leather briefcase with combination locks. I haven't used it
in years. When I went to open it with my combination the left lock
opened up but the other won't budge. I know that I have set both locks
to the same three number combination. Says Franzen on the locks.
On the latch that opened I see 2011 FRANZEN.
How can I salvage this briefcase?
Thanks

If you are sure of the combination, squirt WD40 in any opening in the
lock, tap it with a hammer, then play with it untill it opens or you get
tired of the procedure. Then force it open. After this, replace the lock
if you still value the briefcase.

Franzen is a brand name.
