    A couple weeks ago my wife needed a new locker padlock at the gym/pool she goes to due to a rash of thefts and the prevalence of cheap Master combination locks (including hers). Thanks to this channel I was quickly able to veto about 95% of the locks for sale at the hardware store we went to as being just as crappy, if not even worse, as what she was already using.

      The vast majority were Master locks that you could open with a harsh glare and a wag of your finger, and really cheap storage unit locks like he did a couple weeks back. Honestly, for an Ace Hardware you'd expect better options.

    We used 2 of these locks in the garden to secure the storage of our tools and the main building.
    After 5 years both looks stopt working and we weren't able to turn the core to open the lock. After a lot of work, I managed to open the lock and something fell out, I believe that it was the part of the core that holds the springs and pins in place. Took me about 30 - 40 minutes to open each lock without powertools.

    • @DanStaal
      @DanStaal 10 месяцев назад +2

      Multiple spools, decent amount of pins, good quality workmanship - definitely above average, and something that will turn away inexperienced pickers and many simple attacks.
      Basically, if it’s in a public place and you aren’t being attacked by an expert, this will at least get them noticed before they open the lock.

    • @WrightWorld
      @WrightWorld 10 месяцев назад +4

      It has security pins and required him to pick at least pin 1 twice. LPL is extremely skilled at lockpicking so it took him about as long as it'd likely take me to open a masterlock with a wave rake. The novice lock picker will probably be working on this lock for several minutes at the minimum. It would deter the casual thief who'd find a less secure target. A determined intruder would probably resort to a destructive attack to the lock or whatever it was securing to get in.
      In other words, it's perfectly fine for a gym locker or possibly a shed (depending on its weather resistance) but probably not how you'd want to secure your piles of gold bricks.

    I don’t know how your channel appeared in my feed, but you are awesome. I may be able to make a hobby out of this. I’m working on a jobsite that has been shut down/abandoned since 2011, and there were locks on everything outside. I had to check for power for the grading guys, so I had to carry a drill and a 1/4” bit to drill all the locks out to get them open to check for power. The superintendent went through with a grinder cutting a few. I got 6 to his 3. Also, he got stung. There were wasps in every thing we opened, but they got him in action while grinding. It would’ve been really to go in and pick 5 while he was grinding on one getting stung! I mean that’s bad but still would’ve been cool to exploit such a skill.

    It is nice to see that LPL is going back to basics again. As much as I love this channel, I am getting quite bored with videos that have nothing to do with actual lock picking. There were several videos with bags being tested on being cut and/or slash proof, wrenching locks, destroying locks with a Ramset and car door locks always being opened with a Lishi. And I admit; those Lishi's are brilliant, but somehow a Lishi in the hands of LPL just doesn't seem quite right. I loved the video's where LPL is making short work of really beefy, well engineered locks such as the Squire's and ERA's. I really would like to see those kind of locks return on this channel. Also the mysterious packages sent in by viewers that are being opened on camera. The old locks that are probably forgotten by many that originate from all over the world, a history lesson that comes with it about the lock.... And I am quite sure that, like me, there are many more people who would want to see LPL finally picking the Bowley lock.

    The looseness of the cylinder (moving forward and back) is something I've found on poor quality versions of this type of lock which oddly (just like roughly machined pins in pig iron padlocks) can make them a little more awkward to pick. I would have thought it was a sign that this IKON lock is a cheap copy, also having a brass cylinder not steel, but I wouldn't have expected security pins in a cheap copy lock. So it's a odd thing indeed.

      I've a disk lock I've had similar problems with. Mushy pins, can't feel a binder, little to no feedback. I had to use a LOT of tension to get it open. When I say a lot, I mean so much that my turning was bending, digging into and hurting my hand. So much it felt like something might break. So maybe you also just need an absurd amount of tension to feel something

      @@bad_wulph I've tried A LOT of tension so much so two hours later my finger has an indent in it. And the funny thing is if you look at the biting on the key it looks like a bump key lol. Like it should open by accident. I'm still a "new" picker because it's not been quite a year yet I've been doing it but in my limited experience it's the super cheap no name locks that can be the most challenging. The tolerances are so bad it's almost a security feature. But I'll take your advice and only use super high tension with it from now on. Thank you

      @@TRIIGGAVELLI you may also just need to set it aside for a while and come back when you have more experience. That's what I had to do with it, I'm new-ish also. The tension I had to use may not be what you need. Are you sure there isn't a pin in the back you're missing? One of mine has a pin in the back that sits really low, so low that my standard hook doesn't fit under it when I'm using bottom-of-keyway tension. I end up hitting the side of it instead, which can trick you into thinking you've hit the back of the lock.

    I still havent beat my generic cheap lock of this style. It’s not the pins that are the problem but the tumbler itself seems to have some misalignment inside. When using the key you really have to force it to turn the mechanism. This makes picking quite difficult

    I know all that you buy from store are pickable ( unless i missed something) but it seems 99.9 % of thieves get through locks with crow bars, hammers and bolt cutters . This one seems to be the one that would survive the longest under attack. Yes? No? . Anyway love the channel. This is definitely a skill you would want when SHTF.

      I have two similar locks on a shed after police advised me to use round locks following a break in some years ago. Apparently your average dumb thief tries to jemmy the lock and the crow bar slides off. I have had a hasp broken but they gave up at that point when they realised there was a second lock at the bottom of the door and moved onto someone else's shed (probably with a Master lock that surrendered when they looked at it 🙂 ).

    A shame you ship to the surrounding countries but not the Netherlands, you have some really great sales going on and I would have loved to get started learning to pick. But I guess our customs agents are being annoying about them, despite them technically being legal. Only when you insert them into a lock that you do not own do they become illegal.

    I have this exact same lock. It was part of the first purchase of random locks when I got interested in this hobby. It took me a loooong time until I was able to pick it though, even managed to do some Abus locks from the same purchase way before this one.
