- Rusty Giant Lock Restoration
In this video I restore an giant lock. This lock belongs to my friend. He asked me to restore this lock. I was surprised to see the size of the lock. I hope you have never seen such a lock. On this lock there is a picture of King Shah Jahan.
I began the restoration work by disassembling all parts of the lock.I used vinegar to remove the rust from the lock parts. It can take a long time to remove rust with vinegar, so I added electricity. Then after 12 hours I removed all the lock parts from the vinegar and washed them. A lot of the rust was gone.After that cleaned all the parts with a wire brush. After that I started working on the front part of the lock. On the front side of this plate I sanded with a 120 grit angel grinder and then started hand sanding, 220, 320, 400, 600 & 1000 grit. After that, the plate was buffed and cold bluing was done on the back side of the plate.After that I started working on the back side of the lock. The back side of the lock was not welded properly. I repaired the welding. Apply the cold bluing the back side of the lock. Had quite a few dents on the hanging parts of the lock, filled them and hand sanded and buffed them.The key to the lock was not neatly made either. Repaired and buffed the key.Screws were used instead of revits to attach the lock which was not correct.So I made five new rivets. After restoring all the parts, assembled the lock.

Prekrasne ima ornamente, Mnogo vam hvala sto sam ga uopste i video. Posebno hvala sto ste ga restaruracijom ponovo vratili u zivot. Veliki pozdrav iz Srbije od porodice Lazic.
This is hopefully what it would have looked like when it was first made. It turned out beautifully. The biggest padlock I have ever seen. Well done. 👍🏻
You said right. I'm glad you liked this video, thanks a lot.
The only one who has to approve of the job you did on this is your friend. If he is happy, it doesn't matter what other people think!
You are absolutely right. My friend very happy to see the result of this lock.
Fantastic restoration, don't listen to the tossers' complaints
Such a great find! I don't know how or why some people leave such ugly welds. I'm glad you cleaned and touched them up to look cleaner and more fitting to such a great looking unique peace. Great job I really like this one! Thank you for doing what so many others fail to do and that is protect our eyes as you tough up and fix those welds!
Ignore the haters - it’s your channel and your restoration. I think it’s beautiful and this is one of my favorites !
You are right, people never agree. I am glad you like my work, thank you
The Shah and the Begum would have admired your fine work - Bahuth Achcha!
Ten kdo vyrobil nebo opravovall tento vysací zámek odvedl velmi nekvalitní práci. Ty jsi mu svou renovací vrátil původní krásu. Díky moc. Zdravím. Pavel 🇨🇿
such a strange and interesting piece.. on the one hand it looks so grand and special...but then.. it has the most comically simple internal locking system.. its quite odd really if you think about it... but if it works.. it works... a kind of smoke and mirrors of the locksmiths world.. much love xxc
It looks more ceremonial than anything
The padlock will not be 100's of years old, due to the somewhat crude method of manufacturing. It is not forge welded, but is electric arc welded. Most antique Asian padlocks were made from brass or alloys, not steel plate. The restoration as such, has improved the padlocks appearance, well done 👍
FCAW started in the late 1950's - it looks like a piece of tourist junk - cheaply made - right down to the pint that they used carriage bolts instead of real pins
Yes, you made this old lock great again with your work.
Thank you very much😊
That is one of the coolest things I've ever seen.. I have never seen a lock that big. Keep up the amazing work
I too have never seen a lock like this before it is really amazing. I'm glad you like my work, thanks
so beautiful restoration!
Ive expected a super sophisticated mechanism from the past. Didnt excepted that xD
What a beautiful restoration 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much 😊
Bravo, your work is shining. Loved the way you transformed the look of the padlock.
Such a strange lock. The artwork on the face plate and handle are very nice but the rest of the construction as you found it, was quite poor. I wish we knew its history. Great restoration!
Great found and great restoration, well done bro
Turkish king 🇹🇷🇹🇷
And you are the king too because you used a black screen when you welded to protect eyes ❤❤
This restoration is incredible! I love seeing how the years of wear and rust slowly vanish, revealing the intricate details of the lock. The patience and skill you put into this project are impressive
Beautiful. Well done ❤❤❤
Beautiful piece after you smoothed all the rough edges and repaired and polished it. I only hope it wasn't locking some poor maiden's chastity belt!
What a wonderful job you did! So clean and shiny! Thank you for your video!
Makes you wonder what this was actually used to lock up? I wonder if it was on a gate to a secret garden or something. Interesting to think of ideas, it really makes the imagination run wild
You said right
Probably a large gate. Or a vault. I'm sure a half hour of research will yield some good results.
ce n'est pas une simple restauration c'est une transformation je doute que ce cadenas était a cet état quand il était neuf BRAVO.
Upgrade.
Merci ! C'est vrai, la transformation fait vraiment ressortir un nouveau personnage du cadenas. Je suis contente que ça vous ait plu.
You certainly made a good job of restoring this padlock. Also you have the evidence to show what it looked like prior to the restoration. Great result👍🇬🇧
Obviously not the highest security padlock but certainly the best looking
Perfekt Job😊
Mükemmel bir işçilik ellerinize sağlık ustam👍🏻
Beğenmene sevindim 😊
Maaaan, why is this so giant? ❤
You did an amazing job. Saving history.
Very well done. I'm sure your friend was very pleased.
Very nice !! A Very large and interesting old lock for sure it looks amazing !!! 👍
You said right
Отличная работа!
Outstanding and balanced ❤❤❤
This is amazing, but the question does come to mind…
How big was the door that this padlock was for? 🤔
Awesome job!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Super jest ta dupiata odrestaurowana kłódka piękna duża kłódka Jak walizka wygląda Pozdrawiam serdecznie. 👍👍👍👍
Cieszę się, że jak zawsze podobał Ci się ten film. Jeśli na to spojrzysz, wygląda jak walizka.
That lock is not from the 1600s. In the 1600s a lock that size would have been both better fettled and dressed, and would lack indications of modern tools like mechanized saws or flame cutting, and what appeared to be seal bearings and basic modern steel and not wrought iron.... and that spring is modern. So, a faked 'old' lock. Probably made in India and soaked in vinegar.
Nice job !
Patina 😵💫
КРАСОТА!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤
Nice oriental gravure on the front
AWESOME !!!
Perfeito 🎉🎉🎉
The padishah not only built the Taj Mahal, but also created this Giant Lock. It seems he was less talented as a locksmith :)
Wonderfull work brother ❤❤❤👏👏👏👏
Very nice.
huge lock, but so simple...
Beautiful work
I'm glad you like it
Beautiful work!
Looks like the engraving was done by hand.
*pulls out lock sporting kit*
Salam Aleykum adaş). Abi el işin eladi ellerine sagliq. Sen poluavyomata qaz al CO2 ve 0.8 mefyille işley svarkan ela cixacaq 😊 bele söz yoxdu el seliqene )))
Where in the hell you could even use such piece of huge locking device?!??
Must be one helluva door or ancient bankvault...
Whoever originally made the lock, didn't care much details. It looks very brutally made. After restoration it looks what it should have originally look.
Really nice job 👍
I don't agree. Grinding and filing off the rough edges ruins it. It loses its authenticity. It was done in good faith, i know, but it is ruined now. It would have never looked like this, even from new. To many people try to impress us with their so-called restoration, they lose track and get carried away. It's such a shame. Another item lost to the unthinking...
I'm glad you liked it 😊
I was actually surprised at the simplicity of the mechanism.. very neat lock, i wonder what it is actually used for? Do you know? Nice resto work.. 👍🏻
С начала я подумал что это канистра )) но нет это замок причём навесной что это за дверь или сундук был ))) при виде этого замка любой грабитель падал в обморок ))
An amazing good job. Thanks
Glad you liked it.
Thank you so much 😊
I think this is a modern reproduction rather than a genuine antique. The internal mechanism looks too simplistic, especially with the factory-made compression spring-historical locks, especially from the Mughal era, typically had more intricate handcrafted mechanisms. The machine-cut threads and welded joints also suggest modern manufacturing, as true antiques would have used rivets or hand-forged components. Even the metal plates look like they were stamped or pressed rather than cast or hand-chiseled. It’s a cool piece, but if it’s being sold or displayed as an original, I’d definitely question its authenticity.
Wow💥 Very" Nice !!! 🛠
Plate steel, arc welded, I’d guess 1940’s or newer probably newer since the pitting isn’t bad at all.
Looks like it was made by a very amateur back yard blacksmith. It’s probably better now than the day it was made.
My thinking exactly. More time and skill spent on restoring it than on making it in the first place.
I think it was made as a tourist peice, not old at all, but it looks good now and is interesting!!!
Cool lock
Beautiful work, especially the key. Thank you for blocking out the welding, I hate watching video that has bright flashes.
What would you store in this? Beautiful restoration.
B-E-A UTIFUL 💓💗👏🏻👏🏻🥰💕💞💛❤️😍💖
Wow. Just wow. This is an interesting item, and I’m glad you restored it. Is it really used to lock anything or is it just a decorative piece?
I'm glad you liked it. I couldn't find much information about it on the internet. I think this lock might have been used to lock large doors. What do you think?
Excelente trabalho, mas pra que serve isso desse tamanho 😅
Que bom que você gosta do meu trabalho. Talvez uma porta grande esteja trancada com esta fechadura.😃
Из старинной классной вещи сделать непонятно что... новодел (китайскую подделку), лучше бы оставил как есть
Вы думаете, что в тысяча шестьсот лохматом году были саморезы? 😂
To be fair the old lock in all honesty could not be displayed in someone’s lounge at home, in the shed yes. It isn’t a piece of historical value, an old rusted crude lock nothing more.
now let's see if The Lock Picking Lawyer can pick it open
Beautiful monster lock. Probably not very effective as a lock but for it's day it is a splendid piece of work. Was this made around early 1600? Great job.
This padlock is actually from the 1950's
@@filipematias5127 Wow. That's a surprise. Thanks for letting me know.
💯👍😊💯
All those burrs are from a press. Some piece of artwork? Easily from the 80’s! You greatly shortened its life polishing it!
nothing at this Padlock was antique :D
the Screws who was used as rivets, the electic weldings, thats a Tourist-Scam from an backyard-Manufacturing from post-1960s, i think 1980s plus
its very very cheap and poorly made, after your Rework, ist houndred times better then new :D
I don't understand why you ground down the intricate design? Very strange choice imo.
The lock for my harem door...😊
Wow
Beautiful work as usual. Great attention to detail! 👌 But is the locks function purely ceremonial?
I'm glad you liked this video as always. Yes, this lock works perfectly.
Why? This is the world's largest padlock I've ever seen! Compared to the ones that we have of today.
I couldn't find much information about it on the internet. What do you think about it?
Somebody had one hell of a shed ? Or was it for the Harem ?
Carriage bolt rivets, welding... Not an antique
its not antique lock its made in indian from scratch medals
не одобряю. ваша шлифовка, полировка, воронение убило всю историческую достоверность изделия.
это реставрация. определение заключается в том, чтобы вернуть предмет в неповрежденное/исходное состояние.
Renovation is not the same as restoration and this padlock is from around the 1950's
What would this have been used for?
Have to ask, just what is blueing and what does it do?
Any idea on the history of this item? It's probably not from the 17th century, any idea why it has the designs on the front etc? thanks
@@JW_Steed it’s very recent, plate steel not cast iron, 1/4 20 cartage bolts machine made, arc welded together.
@ that makes sense, thank you. Any idea why it had the design it’s does in the front?
@@JW_Steed I watch a lot of videos about arts in Pakistan and India, almost everything has some form of fancy embellishment.
That is only a guess but it fits the culture. It would be nice if someone knew the person carved on it, that would really narrow it down
@ agreed! That would be neat.
I searched the internet about this lock and found a similar lock that someone is selling on ebay. They say the lock is 3 or 400 years old. But I think this lock is not 400 years old. I think this lock may be about 80 years old, what do the rest of you think.
You have done a good job, but it's originality is gone.

👍👍👍👍👍
It looks beautiful, but that's no antique.
🥃👍👏🥃👍👏🥃👏🥃👍👏🥃👍👏🥃
What the fuck were they locking with this thing???
cheap crudely made imitation! not a real lock, a novelty piece of junk!
You should have left it with its imperfections. Now it looks like a reproduction of the original. It took away its authenticity.
I agree with you, he ruined it...
Just looks cheap now no matter how good it turns out..
Including the rust, no a thing of beauty is a joy.
Unless you're the owner that wanted it restored, your opinion on it means exactly dick.
I think he restored it in a brand new condition intentionally. What you are thinking is for PRESERVATION.
Gorgeous. You fixed the right amount of issues to eliminate the major flaws to its beauty.
Хрень полная .
You should be totally ashamed for trying to restore this lock in the manner that you did. Why would you take such abrasive measures to that intricate design? You butchered it!
Работа зачёт. Замок говно!
Antique? Dislike! Bullshit!
Does the girl wear gloves to do restoration work, to protect her nail polish or to hide the fact that she doesn't know how to do anything?
