I now know how my lunatic neighbor has been coming into my house. Ironically I had double sided barrels to begin with but replaced them with thumb turns out of fire safety concerns. But 3 double ended barrels are now on order, paid for yesterday. My temporary fix was to poke solder wire into the 2 locks I don't need outside access from (as in jam the barrel full of solder wire so nothing can be pushed in to reach the back). The fact these things are even marketed as locks amazes me.
Hi I have added a local service link as it closely relates to your video. I hope that this is not an issue, thanks for your video I am a locksmith and these tools will save me time and money on some jobs.
Thanks, honestly i dont know what a local service link is but all our videos are under the youtube standard license and you're free to embed them and link to them as much as you like, thank you if it means it gets a few more views!
Great video! I have to say I was able to guess how that works when I saw the tool and you mentioned it only works with thumb turn locks. Unfortunately, it seems that there are practically no way to avoid this vulnerability with thumb turn unless those include hidden key inside the thumb turn. In that case the operation would be to slightly press the thumb turn towards to door or the thumb turn will not rotate if a key has been used in between. I think one could create even better shaped bypass tool if there were a need.
I think there are a few types on the market that avoid this bypass vulnerability, but yeah, it really depends on the manufacturer putting the effort in
Unfortunately id have no idea how to make this you would need the right sort of metal and a something to stamp it, and to be honest they are very cheap for what they are
@@HoddysGuides Hi, thank you for answering, well do you think to make a tool for patio door locks with cylinder euroe Or rectangular locks, which in our country are called book locks, what is suitable? In your opinion, what kind of material, or device, is soft, which is also metal? Yesterday I saw a clip, with a juice straw, a book lock Easily opened. What is your Eid? And what is the shape of the tool, and most importantly, what is the tip of the tool? If you say I will be grateful.
@Hoddys Guides Excuse me, if I wrote a petition, there is a clip on the same RUclips, it is for Russia, I will find the link, I will provide your service, with a car filler spring, construction tool, just the tip of the tool, bend it in a way💐🙏
It really depends on the build of each lock, only way to tell is to try. This is great as an addition to other methods of entry always worth a try but is far from going to open every type of lock.
How're these different from the ones they sell separately that aren't labeled as _"European"_ tools? Are they just a tad smaller to fit euro locks, or are they a different shape?
@@HoddysGuides Doesn't YT auto-delete comments with links? But anyway, their on the Sparrows site under _"Bypass Tools"_ and/or _"Bypass Drivers"_ and are named _"Abus Bypass Driver"_ and _"Padlock Bypass Driver"_ or something similar.
@@iyeetsecurity922 ok generally the padlock version have a shorter stem so they wont work on euro cylinders, the abus one is made specifically for that type of lock, do you have a specific use case?
@@HoddysGuides Nothing specific. Just to add them to my locksport station. The pictures on their site aren't as good as they could be to show the difference, nor is it explained well IMO, and the pair of Euro ones are a tad cheaper than buying the other 2 together. So I'm trying to be informed as I can before buying anything. Do you know if the Euro ones only work on, well, European locks? Or if they perhaps work on a range of others? Thanks for your help.
@@iyeetsecurity922 they can be very hit or miss, they either work or they don't. I had a site that had tons of yale thumb turns and it opened virtually any one but on the other hand when trying other locks its 50/50 if they will bypass them. Its a great tool to have in your kit though.
Please lock the patio door leading to the hub euro،Make a video too. The way you said it, only for one type of lock euro What happens to the rest of the locks?
Im sorry I dont know, ive never seen that particular lock or tried this method on it, but i can say most thumb turns i come across are vulnerable, you would probably have to test to see unfortunately.
Did you find the answer? The SS312 Diamond and TS007 3 Star are the higher spec. They offer thumb turns; it would be surprising (pointless) if they are susceptible to this procedure.
@@stugedwards I'm looking into this subject. The link below mentions an Avocet lock, but probably not the high spec one that you have. ruclips.net/video/-YzVeZedkR8/видео.html.
@@SaxJockey yeah same as this video - I’ve only seen this method of attack used on cheap entry level locks. The one below shows the 3* lock taken apart and I think it looks like the piece that turns the cam is part of the cylinder rather than a separate piece, which would mean you’d have to pick it rather than bypassing the cylinder and pins ruclips.net/video/V_9ydNppqIQ/видео.html
To educate on not only a valid locksmithing method but also the risk of using thumbturns on doors used for security. If i didn't show it it would still be vulnerable but people might not know the risk. Dont blame me, blame those creating inferior locks.
This is hands-down the best video about this subject! Thank you for putting the time and effort into making it!
Thank you!

Is there any specific thumbturn cylinder what can not be bypass?
It really depends on the build of each lock, only way to tell is to try. This is great as an addition to other methods of entry always worth a try but is far from going to open every type of lock.
Would these work on oval thumbturn locks
Potentially
Its out of stock. When they will be available?
Sorry, I don't have any connection to the sellers, I just provided a link to where I bought it. You might find it in stock elsewhere.
How're these different from the ones they sell separately that aren't labeled as _"European"_ tools? Are they just a tad smaller to fit euro locks, or are they a different shape?
Can you send me the link to the other one? Im not sure happy to check for you though

how did you do it can you share with me , thank you
Yes i made a whole video
Please lock the patio door leading to the hub euro،Make a video too. The way you said it, only for one type of lock euro What happens to the rest of the locks?
Nothing, in the other types of locks generallly you can feel the difference once you have done a few, but very hard to explain
Hi there,
I have SS312 diamond standard 3 star Avocet ABS thumb turns.
Are my locks really vulnerable to this method?!
Im sorry I dont know, ive never seen that particular lock or tried this method on it, but i can say most thumb turns i come across are vulnerable, you would probably have to test to see unfortunately.

Why show it to the world 🤬🤬🤬🤬
