You must open the safe at Jack’s Inn to obtain the door key and progress to the west side of South Vale in Silent Hill 2.
This involves doing some math equations, so if you don’t like the sound of it (we don’t blame you), we’ve detailed the Jack’s Inn safe code below.
Please noteThis is a guide for Silent Hill 2 Remake in “Standard” and “Hard” difficulty modes, so the code and walkthrough may not be correct if you are playing the original version or have selected “Hard” mode. Light “. puzzle difficulty.

Silent Hill 2 Jack’s Inn Vault Code
If you are playing on “Standard” difficulty, the code for the Jack’s Inn safe in Silent Hill 2 is 0451and if you play in “Hard”, the code is 0533. Enter the correct code into the safe found in the small room near the vending machines at the entrance to Jack’s Inn to get the door key, then use that key on the locked door on the southeast side of the motel.
Silent Hill 2 Jack’s Inn Safe Puzzle Solution
If you want to figure out the code yourself, go up the stairs and break the window in room 108, then jump up and break the wall on your left to slip through the gap to room 107. Here you can recover the code. Toolbox Memo, which instead of telling you the code straight away, gives some small mathematical problems to solve in “Standard”:
- One – one less (0)
- Three – one more (4)
- Eight – three down (5)
- Zero – one more (1)
As you can see, this means the code is 0451 on “Standard” puzzle difficulty.
The code is much more difficult to solve on “Hard” difficulty, because the clues are more obscure:
ALL ROOMS need to be renovated
then we have to MULTIPLY that by the labor cost
then there is the plumbing in the ROOMS UPSTAIRS
I swear, there are times when I just want to give up
I’m not THIRTY-THREE anymore
if we can’t do everything ADD
maybe there is hope for the five of us
Extracting this information into mathematical formulas gives you:
- All rooms (8) x rooms upstairs (2) = 16
- 16 x 33 = 528
- 528 + 5 = 533
As you can see, no “0” is mentioned in the document. The only clue that you need to put “0” at the beginning of the code to get 0533 is that the back of the toolbox memo says “XXXX”, implying that it is a code to four digits.
Well, yes, it took me an embarrassingly long time (and many wrong math equations) to figure out this simple final step. And I wasn’t mad at the least when I discovered that all I had to do was put a “0” in front of the first equation I tried…
