No decent locksmith who's worth anything would tell someone on the internet how to open a safe. While it's true that fire safes are less secure than burglary safes, the main difference is the tamper resistance. There's still a process to go through to properly unlock the safe, do any repairs needed, including maintaining it's fire integrity. These things are not free if you expect a professional job with a professional outcome.
I'd be more than willing to give you what a fair price for opening and repairing should be if you post a picture so I can identify it. I've been a locksmith and safe tech for many years.
