The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 campaign has a handful of locked doors, safes, and containers. Most of them are optional, but several hold contraband, notes, loot, or the items you need for trophies. There are 13 codes in total, and they appear in only four of the 16 missions.
Quick answer: Enter 214 in Following Orders, then 5523, 7632, and 9103 in Assassins. Stranded has eight codes, and Escape uses 8410. The full list is below.
Modern Warfare 4 code list: all 13 solutions
The codes below follow the order of the campaign. When a keypad accepts a code, the lock opens right away. The door unlocks, the container opens, or the safe lid swings free. If nothing happens, check the digits again, including any leading zeros on the Stranded locks.

| 3. Following Orders | Red toolbox (lockbox) | 214 |
| 8. Assassins | Library door | 5523 |

Stranded container and bunker codes by map coordinates
Stranded is an open area, and it holds eight of the campaign’s 13 codes. Six of them open shipping containers and two open hidden bunkers. Every lock sits at a fixed spot, so the fastest route is to follow the map coordinates. The game gives each container a clue built around a number pattern, but the answers never change, so you can skip the math.
| Location | Coordinates | Code |
|---|---|---|
| Base Camp | 644, 158 | 0024 |
| Cliff near Base Camp | 646, 149 | 0600 |
| South of Jamming Station | 667, 125 | 8609 |
| Southeast Village | 652, 187 | 0078 |
| North of the Big Sign | 634, 136 | 1234 |
| Small northeast island | 618, 132 | 6789 |
| Farm Field hidden bunker | 631, 127 | 0330 |
| Southwest island hidden bunker | 615, 169 | 0008 |
Some coordinates read a unit or two differently depending on where you stand. The cliff container near Base Camp can show around 646, 150, and the Big Sign container can show near 633, 139. Get within that range and look for the container or the bunker hatch.
Stranded saves its progress separately from your main playthrough. You can go back for any container you missed without losing ground in the story.
Where to find the locks in Following Orders, Assassins, and Escape
Outside Stranded there is no map to guide you. These locks sit along each mission’s main path, so you only need to know which room to look in.
Following Orders toolbox (214)
Enter the village’s first house, then go into the room to your right. Its sole unlockable cabinet contains the red toolbox. In the kitchen, check the cupboard on the left for the code note. Use 214 to unlock the box and take the medicine contraband and note. Both are required for the No Stone Unturned trophy, awarded for collecting all contraband and notes in the mission.
Assassins door codes (5523, 7632, 9103)
The three keypads in Assassins block the route through the palace and down to the bunker, so you have to open them to progress. Each code works only on its own door.
- 5523 opens the locked door at the far end of the library, which you reach after Shin the bodyguard dies.
- 7632 opens the door past the main kitchen, which leads out to the large garden behind the palace.
- At the garden’s far end, clear the enemies before using 9103 to unlock the bunker door behind the large statue.
Escape safe code (8410)
After you leave the barracks in the detention center, find the unlocked door on the right side of the hallway. The safe is inside that room. Enter 8410 to open it and collect dog tags, which you need for the Never Forgotten trophy.
You can miss any of these locks on your first playthrough, but none is permanently missable. Completed missions remain available through the mission select menu. Replay Following Orders, Assassins, Stranded, or Escape, enter the code, and collect anything you missed.
