The Last of Us 2 safe codes and combinations can be used to access additional ammo, weapons, supplements, and rewards like the gun store Big Win prize. Each safe has a combination to open it, but they're usually hidden behind puzzles, enemies, or just stashed some distance away.
Opening any safe will help you, but getting them all will earn you the Safecracker Trophy as well. I've got all 14 The Last of Us 2 safe codes laid out below, along with the combinations for a couple of vaults and doors you also can open up.
Much like all of The Last of Us Part 1 safe codes you can find in the previous game, you don't need to actually find the codes to open anything – so you can just use the combinations I've got here. But, if you do want to see where everything is, I've got it all listed out for you.

Inside there’s a door locked with a combination and around the corner from that is a table with a note telling you to get a soda to find the code. Nearby is a vending machine you can smash open to get the soda can inside with a note that gives you the first three numbers of the combination - 152 - and then tells you to ‘figure out the rest’.
