I always love how LPL is so inclusive. It’s always “Let’s see if WE can get this open.” “WE were able to rake it.” Thank you LPL I’m not sure how much I contributed but you always make all your viewers feel like a part of the action
To be fair, he wouldnt be doing this online if it wasnt for us :D So we are a part of it all! And yes, i feel a sense of accomplishment when WE open new locks. shitty or not.
I bought a very cheap pick set a while back for picking locks in scrap aluminium screen doors so that I can remove them from the frames. (They cannot be removed when in the locked position.) I have nearly zero experience at picking. Despite my complete novice status, I've been stunned at how many locks are laughably easy to pick open even with the most basic of tools and almost no practice. I have gained a new appreciation for the importance of installing high quality locks.
Yeah, I used to work in an office where people were losing their keys a lot and getting building management to open them took a while, so with the office manager's permission I would just pick them, and they were shockingly easy to pick, and I know nearly nothing. People thought I was clever, but really, the state of consumer level locks is just really terrible.
@@joatmon101b To be fair in my section of the country "screen" doors have solid panels in them much of the year, you can certainly break them but it would be much noisier and more noticeable than cutting a screen.
@@joatmon101b True enough on most screen doors. There are some, though, that are "high security" and the heavy, stainless steel screens in those can't be cut with anything but an angle grinder.
Let's do it the hard way, like you would in the field, installed in the worst possible situation, and pick it with the cheapest thing I always carry with me ...
@@Sekahe Especially those that can be opened with just a bonk and yank. Any lock that can be opened by someone with two hooks for hand kind of sucks as a lock.

There is no doubt that LPL is one of the best pickers in the world. The question is whether he's THE best picker in the world. I would say he probably is, but of course there might be a better one out there.
Often used on vans, I considered a puck for my camper converted van (take bikes and other valuables with me travelling) but instead I cinch them shut with a turnbuckle that pulls on a cable attached to the inside of the door, then lock the pass-through from the drivers/passenger seats in the front. Not the most practical but even if you bust the window or pick the vehicle lock the rear doors still won’t open.

If u don’t have the scratch for covert operations gear (I know I don’t 😢) grab a cheap beginner lock picking set with clear plastic practice locks, I got one for around 17 bucks and another for about 30 and they seem good for novice stuff but I don’t have any actual experience 😅
@@seancoolie01 Yeah, I got a set of the clear locks, and cheap pick set. But, I still need to get a dimple flag and a decent disc detainer pick. Watch out for cheap disc detainer picks, though.

Over the summer at work, we showed up one morning to find that someone tried to break into the shipping container. Had a masterlock puck on it. Lock was still there but the person messed up the keyway so we had to drill out the core. Was very easy, low power drill with a bit for wood was able to do it.
Mr. LPL, I, one among the hundreds of thousands to millions of viewers really enjoy your videos. Your calm tone, and impeccable skills make for a gentle, relaxing yet terrifying look into how totally insecure we are in our faith in locks. Never has anyone scared us so much in such a wonderful, mellow and unthreatening tone. That said, as a handgun owner, I've used your videos to avoid numerous insecure gun 'safes' since I've seen you open them with simple garbage from a trash can with the ease of a key. However, that leaves me with an unsecured firearm, and that concerns me quite a bit. Out of all the handgun safes you have opened, I feel fairly confident that considering the number of different handguns you have shown in your videos that you _do_ have a personal handgun safe you at least marginally trust. If you would, sir, please suggest one that may be reasonably secure. Obviously I'm not asking you to recommend a product, but if you could perhaps clue us in on a decent one, or maybe even mention one of the ones you use that would be awesome. Thanks for all the great videos you post.
So, If we were looking for a novice level lock to practice picking... obviously this is not the one, and neither is Master Lock. A regular bolt with a nut from a hardware store would take a thief longer to open.
Not sure what happened with the Audio volume on this one...but I had to turn it way up to understand you. Its constantly fascinating how many different videos you can make of these products with design shortcomings....TY for sharing!
The comb pick seems to be a good attack for Master locks... was surprised to see the "Reset" didn't have the same vulnerability. At least this required just a little bit of skill. Security pins would have been an easy improvement. Locks shouldn't be easily raked.
At the point when you can rake a lock open...is when you KNOW you've failed to produce a Lock, rather than just Security Theater. It's practically a Novelty Item!
@@WhereWhatHuh trust me I'm not delusional enough to even think that is something to be obtained! No one can beat Chuck Norris and live to tell about it, after all He can punch a cyclops between the eyes!
I have always been told that the purpose of a lock is to keep the honest people honest. The crooks, or thieves are determined to have your property and will find a way to get it.
We had to evict a super-trashy crack-addict tenant from our formerly beautiful rental home. They left holes in the walls, trash and animal feces everywhere throughout the house... it's been a nightmare to clean up and restore the house. The only good news was they locked up the gate with a masterlock, thinking it'd cause us trouble. Thanks to this channel I had it open pretty quickly. :D I went with the hammer method and it popped open after a few tries. If only the rest were so trivial, but alas, Masterlock doesn't make every obstacle in the world.
Before creating the company, he had a similar setup in a leather wallet. One of the tools on the original handle was his actual key, with the bitting conveniently hidden by being in there.
I've seen lots of these types of locks around and see just how much they are relied on for good security. If only thr people using them realised. of course there are a few good ones on the market.
Whenever I watch these I always think about the line from the Top Gear segment where they had a thief test the security of their vans. "He just walked up to it and it opened!"
Race to the bottom, with Master and Reset neck and neck as they're heading down the backstretch! Alas, no one told them Low King isn't good outside of Discworld.
I happen to use some American/Master locks (5260 and 700 series locks), (all 6 pin cores) though older, that I custom cut and keyed using security pins and the anti-bypass wafer. There are a few tricks you can do to the core, so as to not being able to retain the pins at the shear line. You can get 4 pins trapped at the line, but picking you won't get all 6.
@@didnotwantthis American is owned by Master. The key shown is an American key blank. The APTC-14 core comes loaded with 5 pins and can have the 6th pin added and new key made. American and Master share a lot of parts between both lines. I’m not saying the core in THIS lock is an APTC core, however that key blank is an American blank.
@@gungadinn I am aware. My point was that American locks are considered intermediate difficulty. They have a mix of spool pins and serrated driver pins and also have serrated key pins. They can put up quite a fight at times. It doesn't make sense to look at the key and expect the lock to be easy to pick.
That is probably the one attack it will survive. Nearly all puck locks can handle destructive methods like a blowtorch or sledgehammer. From shear mass alone if nothing else.
Click out of 1,2,3,4,5 and - oh, it's open. I'd love to see one of these companies be stupid enough to sue him. When he bangs it open in court with the judge's hairpin, it's going to be so fun.

Good stuff.
- Video is more than 3 minutes long
- Lock was opened 3 times in those 3 minutes, which included a 1-minute summary of puck-lock security
it takes him more time to prepare his tools than opening the lock.
It's interesting that he takes more time to get right picks than that he needs to open the lock
SHOCKING !!!! You even added extra time to select and remove your tools from the picking-set.
ProTip: It's NEVER a fluke
watching this video side by side with 1197 made me realize that the audio in these videos has gotten a lot quieter
Seems like it meets the "Standard" for security in the U.S., it's pretty rare to see anything much better in use.
Sometimes you can comb the first 4 pins and hook the last one, like newer master locks.
AWESOME
