Or there isn't even a password at all, and security is entirely provided by a locked cover over the control panel ... usually a lock with a standard, easy-to-buy-online key.

You probably don't even have to go that far. You can rake-pick most consumer locks in a handful of seconds and with zero talent required. I theoretically know how to pick locks in the traditional "little click from pin 1, pin 2 is set, pin 3 is loose" kind of way but in reality I never have to on any consumer grade lock. Just tension it with a little screwdriver and fuck it at random with a bent paperclip and you'll probably get it open. I'd be immensely surprised if these things are secured with anything more than a dinky 4 or if we're feeling especially generous 5 pin [through-hole cam lock.](https://mrlock.com/cam-lock-7-16-ka-fixed-q520-ka-es105/)

You buy your bolt-cutters online, too? It's such a useful key.
