Reduces 24 possibilities to 1! (Well, more likely to 2 or 3, given that you may not get the exact right sequence on the first try, but should be close).

Obviously assuming a four-digit code without repeated digits. :)

Or, in the case of my current living arrangements, just look to see which keys on the pad have their labels worn off…
