Does not work unless you drill the pin out too. I tried drilling it out but you can’t push the pin in because it locked on the core without the control key.
Nice three part video, I enjoyed the transitions and the display of some great pinning mats. Thank you for sharing this useful tip 👍 👍 👍 I am sorry I was not able to make it when this video posted. I enjoy the content and keep up the great work!
If this is a genuine method for removing the core the reverse should also be true. There’s normally a slight give to the control pin, however you cannot install a core without the control key. You could clearly see in a minute 4:11 that the pin is permanently depressed.
I have a falcon 7 pin cylinder from a rekey, it has an operating key and of course i could pick it to operating. I havent done much ic stuff so i appreciate the tip, i dont have to trash the core or housing now! I was thinking it was like best where it has the control bar, but i noticed that hole in the side and was wondering.
@@russej02 well the housing that this 7 pin is in looks exactly like this one. It has the factory drilled hole and tapered head. But I believe it is sfic, a best core would fit i think. I haven't had any luck finding a listing for these housings, but i havent looked very hard either.
@@ThaFritz if it’s seven pin falcon it’s sfic. Just search sfic housing. The only way you’re getting that core out is getting a control key picking to control or destroying the housing.
Good video, cept you had removed the top control pin , in the locking pin and the locking pin spring, observe the locking pin stays retracted after you push it, that is not reality.
@@russej02 In the beginning of his video, he said he had neither, it seems unlikely vital components would be missing, thereby allowing this workaround to be the rule, not the exception, look at the two cylinders in the end of the video, see something fishy ?
@@russej02 The core he has change key and control key for, the locking pin has returned to it's locked/extended position. the one he pushed out with a pick, the locking pin, stays down as if it did not have the three needed parts, mentioned above. which is why this trick worked for that core.
Oh lol. I hit with the the drill. No biggie. Easy to fix or just replace the core. This is only useful if you have multiple cylinders to rekey or open and you don’t have a key you pick one if you need to and take the cylinder and do this and then you can take it apart and make a key or control for the rest of them. Trust me it works. I do this on a fairly regular basis. A lot building use those cylinders around where I work.
Somehow I was unlocking my apartment and the core came out and I don't know how to put it back in do I have to completely take it apart to put it back in the lock???
If it’s lfic you have to lift the pin all the way in the back of the lock after you pick it to release it. My email is in the description drop me an email if you want
Samsung. You will need to drill for the pin, these days,, there is hard plate above the plug, drill the plug at an angle, using cobalt bits and a core, side by side , as reference material.
Really no reason on this one since I can’t make a key. Have done jobs though with a lot of these on Schlage keyway prior to lishis. Get one out the door and get the cylinder out take it apart make a control key and easily remove the rest to rekey them. Only had to replace one housing. When a lot of them are push bars getting out a store front door and making a control key saves a ton of time not Having to remove push bars to get them out and replace them all
If it’s still in the door you would have to pick it open to take it out or drill one to open the door then take another one from another door to make a key
Awesome tip. This will help a lot of people out in Locksport.
Cheers and Happy Pickin!
Steel Pinnings I hope so!
Love the transitions! Buy a vice for your drill press!
I have one just didnt use it
Use the vice. I have a half inch scar on my palm from its not that big of a job to vice it.

Brian.
Only on the oldest cores can you attept to play this game. without a control key the core holds the pin in place.
this been here for 4 years and i just watch it !! :(

hey man! thanks for checking it out and thank you for the kind words!
I especially love the part where I couldn't see any of the drilling
Did you see where the hole is?
Really helpful to see how that was done, Thanks for this video, cheers
Pocket Women hopefully it helps some people out 👍
Great info, thanks!
You’re welcome!
Great tip!!!!
Stay safe my friend!!

If is seven pin it’s probably small format not large format and this won’t work
@@russej02 Really? So these housings can hold both the push retainer and the control bar style cores?
@@ThaFritz no. Large format and small format are completely different.

Must be a really old core, hold the thing up to the camera and show us the pin pushing in. Thanks
@@jerryholmes9999 not sure if you’re aware how RUclips works. But I can’t do so that after the video is posted
Nice work
Thank you

Can the housing be used again ?
You could but I think it’s better to just replace it.

That’s probably small format not large format. Email a pic a theboredlockpicker@gmail.com
I have an lfic core, inside a schlage lever handle. It's picked open, but I still can't remove the core from handle. Any help would be great.

What if the core is still inside the lock amd you can't drill it? Why even drill in the side if you have the lock already out!?

Correct answer, if you are still a noob, wanting a pointless challenge...
Ok
