Locks and safes need to go through a certification process to be sold as locks or safes. Any product that fails certification will be branded as a "lock-like" object, but not a real lock.

I have this safe... correction, I had this safe. It got jammed and the handle broke. There is a much easier way than using a circular saw. I cut the hinge bolts on both ends with a battery operated sawzall which took about 20 seconds each and was sooo much less messy. Just stick the blade in between the silver and the gray part of the hinge on both ends and let the sawzall do the work.
@@aserta I am trying to open a safe too and I even went and got a crowbar with a sharp end, but I couldn’t even get it in any part of the safe where the door is. There is a metal lip inside of it that prevents the crowbar from even getting in, I tried jamming it in with a hammer and sledge hammer but it didn’t work, and I also don’t wanna break what’s inside of it. Gonna go to Home Depot today to get one of these saws
@@ywgx7943 Hello Ywgx, hoping your day is going well. A joke has a structure (often) that consists of "the set up" which creates tension an interest. And a "punch line" ("Punch line" see 'Punch and Judy' ) which resolves the 'tension' from an unexpected perspective. In the example shown above, the set up is comparing a fluke(fish) to a (locking) safe. The punchline is the inference that when one cut open a fish there are "guts" (and guts are also used to infer strength and bravery), while on the other hand the 'safe' lacks the messy fish guts and also lacks the inferred strength. The 'delivery' is the fashion in which the 'set up' is made and respects the common practice of the longer the set up / the shorter the punchline. And of course the joke and it's delivery can be measured as good or bad in terms of 'faffs'. Faffs or laughs are the quantitative number of actual chuckles made and the length of time the chuckling time persist. Therefore: faffs(X) * T(ime) = humor Humor with a high number are sometimes known as "gags". And gags that work often and repeatedly are called "shtick' (a.k.a. 'bits) A shtick (Yiddish: שטיק) is a comic theme or gimmick. The word entered the English language from the Yiddish shtik (שטיק), in turn derived from German Stück and Polish sztuka (both ultimately from Proto-Germanic *stukkiją), all meaning "piece" or "thing"; note that "Theaterstück" is the German word for Play (theatre) (and is a synonym of "Schauspiel", literally "viewing play" in contrast to the "Singspiel"). Sometime in performance it is necessary to give the audience permission to laugh or introduce that a joke is to follow. This is done to avoid unwanted tension that the joke can not resolve. For Example: (This will be your personal punchline Mr. Ywgx, wait for it!) Your Punchline: Isn't Naah Indian Bread? (LAFFS and Giggles!!!) Notice the brevity of the punchline is just 4 words. (this line is an example of "beating a dead horse".) Well that's all I have for you today, if you do have any question please put them below (this line is an example of humor thru repetition).
@@ilovefunnyamv2nd that's why I store my valuables in my oven. point 1: its more fire proof, point 2: its harder to cut, point 3: its easier to open when I need (wouldn't easily deform from things crumbling on top of it)
No kidding, the IBM towers back in the 90s had 1.1 or 1.2 mm thick cases, i can't confirm for sure because i don't have it around me, but that metal case was strong enough to support a broken beam once in an emergency. I've been transplanting my computers in it for years.
But bolt it down in your house in a cupboard or something similar and then what use would this attack method be. This safe looks like its built better than most American homes.
@@scottashe984 on the other hand they advertise them saying it's a "solid steel construction" which is kind of misleading, because people think that means it's made of "solid steel", where what they mean is "solid construction that involves steel"...

The thing is, these kinds of safes they market are against burglars who go through your draws and cabinets, snatch what they can of value and take off. This will prevent a quick snatch and grab break in; however, even a higher quality and more durable safe will not stop a prepared thief who knows what they're up against. These safes are based upon the assumption the thief didn't prepare to bring tools beforehand with the expectation of having to breach a safe. In general, it does what it's designed to do.
Exactly. Nobody expects a cheap Walmart safe to slow down anyone determined. It defends against the lazy and opportunistic. This does that and offers fire protection at an affordable price. Your cost is directly proportional to the amount of time and effort needed to defeat your protections.
Or makes it easy! hey its a safe there is everything of value lets grab it and run. Like atleats you need to secure the safe to something for it to properly work. But then again just a custom hiding place and you have the same thing expect fire protections but then again you can add that to your hiding place..... Never saw such a weak safe. That metal part is even thinner then a car panel LOL.
@@SCHIJTERBAAS What it means is your level of protection is proportional to your cost. How long will it take a determined attacker to defeat? The more you spend the higher that time value will be. This safe protects you from fire and people without tools. You want more protection pay for heavier safes and thicker steels.
@@xsynergist You totally right good description of it, spot on mate!! But at it cost what i can find online retialed for : 240 dollars. For that money its then better to build a home made fire resistant custom hiding spot. This "safe" is more a protected fire box then a actually safe in my opinion. This so called safe is just gonna stand out so the thief knows what to grab and the run away. again in my opinion.
Wood blades by design are expecting to need to cut through metal screws or nails, while they say it "can't" and "shouldn't" they know people will hit screws and nails hidden in boards and don't want to constantly have to warranty blades and saws because of it. Cutting through a metal sheet thinner than a razor blade is plenty easy, especially since that foam can be basically picked away with your finger nails.
Common lock picking tools: "Please let me in." LPL's preferred tools, combined with his skills and know-how: "You're letting me in." This video: "I WASN'T ASKING, YOU ARE LETTING ME IN NOW."
Excellent demo of a consumer "safe". I learned this lesson a decade ago when someone used an axe to break into a similar safe at my Church. I volunteered to find a relacement, and fortunately met a used safe dealer in western NJ. He gave me an excellent education on safes, and showed me his collection of profesionally violated high security safes, such as those you might find at a diamond dealer or a pawn shop. In any case I came away with a nice used TL-15 safe, which is rated to withstand a professional attack with tools for 15 minutes. Although not much bigger than the "safe" it replaced, it weighed about 900 lbs, and we bolted it to the floor. One should keep in mind that while burgulary rated safes have more resistance to say, a lawyer with a skil saw, they are probably not rated for fire resistance. An option is to place a fire resistant safe or storage box within the burglar safe to achieve both. Bottom line, if the safe doesnt weigh a half ton or more, its probably not burglar resistant. And, after seeing thick steel plate safes filled with concrete embedded with carbide chips that had been violated, I realized that one must weigh the risk agains the cost of a good safe
@@williamjackson5942 - What's the matter, princess - can't take a joke? It would seem the only person "whining" here is you, my fragile little friend. Sack up, Sally, or the world is gonna eat you up.👍
Much more fascinating than the ease with which this safe was sawed in half is the unholy precision of your sawing to almost perfectly hit your starting point. Also that slight grin in your voice while zooming in on "Master Lock Company" just completely killed me. I can barely write because I'm still laughing :D
I had a safe similar to this for fire protection and to discourage a nosy house cleaner or guest. It never occurred to me that it would provide security against a determined burglar.
Yeah I have something from this brand as well. I definitely don’t think about keeping valuables in there, just important documents I want protected from fire.
Nothing will.. A circular saw with a metal cutting blade can cut through 1/2 inch plate just as easily. So I'm not sure how this is showing anything special. The main thing is that it's not heavy and can be carried away; and I don't think it has holes to bolt it down.
@@stonemanbytes Nice.. But like I said, you can cut through that same safe if it were 1/2" steel with that same saw and it only takes about 2x or 3x the time.. So only a few minutes.
Any time someone would call my shop asking about a safe opening, during the conversation, if the brand name "Sentry" came up, i would immediately reprice my quote as a standard opening rather than a safe opening. Then when they asked why it suddenly got cheaper, i would let them know, "That's Sentry brand. It's not a 'safe', it's just a lock box. They're so easy to get into, I'd feel bad charging you for opening a real safe."
billtheunjust I'd say that the real utility is keeping important papers and such safe from house fires and water damage (splash from fire hoses and such, probably not from literally being submerged underwater for any length of time) but as far as security goes, it's no better than a metal filing cabinet with a lock on it. Enough to stop klepto teenagers or a sneak thief who gets in the house while you're asleep but any real thief who has a little time and can afford to make some noise (homeowner isn't home) will get into it without much difficulty.
This is why you mount the safe inside a cabinet or closet. Then you can’t roll the safe around. We only keep documents in our safe (deed to house, vehicle titles, birth certificates, etc).
Me half paying attention: did I just hear him say he’s going to try to cut into a safe with a circular saw? A literal second later: that cuts smoother than my circular saw on wood!
@Nobody Knows So since ur posting the same "FIRE-rant" in several threads ill answer in several of them, cos u clearly like to twist facts..! So if u didnt see the whole vid ill just mention the obvious here. LPL literally says: "According to the company website it provides SECURITY protection, FIRE protection and WATER protection. Now i cant speak to the fire and water protection, but as for 'SECURITY' - THATS the reason im making this video." ... "...confusing 'cos ... Its a heavy box. Its called a 'SAFE'. It looks like a SAFE. It operates like a SAFE." ... "If we read this manual we can see that it explicitly anticipates that owners will keep valuables like jewelry and watches in it." But yeah NK, u focus on the fire part of it... X-]
"Provides fire protection, water protection and security protection" Does what it says on the tin - it would seem you are quite well protected against fire, water and security.
And now I apply a good coating of Flex Tape to the cut safe! Not only does it cover up the cut well enough, it also increases the defensive properties of the safe, thanks to Flex Tape's strong adhesive properties! Might wanna change the lock mechanism though, heard not much from this brand....
I usually enjoy your videos and while it's interesting to see that it's not a safe like a bank vault (even if it were solid metal, it could still be carried away), the main point would be to keep documents safe in case of fire.
Have you tested any safes that have an actual burglary rating? Would love to see if a safe rated with an Underwriter Laboratory rating of tl-15 actually takes more than 15 minutes to break open. Not to mention how you would attack the safe. That would be a great video.
If I'm being honest, I was more concerned about the saw giving kickback and hurting you than the shoddy construction of the safe. Kickback is no joke with skill saws, they like to go back and to the left, right to where your hand was. Last major kickback I had almost caught me on the inside of my thigh, would have killed me. Bought a bandsaw after that for ripping thick material.
Me too, I think he was using the left side of the plate to guide along that seam. He must have known how deep to cut off that line too, I'm sure he makes no presumptions.
"ok here we have the luxury version, 10 inch steel plates, 8 lock cylinders, integrated tempering alarm, internal power suppl-" "yeah... uhm... that's out of my price range, what about that one over there?" "oh that's just a foam-box covered in sheet metal." "i'll take it!"
Considering the first one is a safe aimed to combat thieves and the second is a fire-safety lockbox aimed to keep documents and stuff like that safe from housefire or flood, well, I'd rather take the fire-box to my house and leave the luxury safe to bank. I like to call it the 'oh god the house is on fire' test, akin to the Chieftain's 'oh god the tank is on fire' test in that when shit hits the pooper and you have need to emergency exit your house, how long does it take to gather essential important things like indentification, certificates, graduation documents, etcetra that would be threathened by fire, flood or other natural disaster? Opening a safety vault presumably located in your cellar for maximum security, is far slower than just grabbing a file container or perhaps a small lockbox from your bedroom, which can handle rough treatment and can withstand fire for a while if you need to leave it behind during your escape. I can grab the file box from beside my bed, throw it out of the window, nab a pair of slippers and toss my bedsheet over the broken window's frame to keep me safe from glass shards while I climb over it and get out of the house in less than a minute with clothes, 'shoes', phone, credit cards and my identification papers, which I consider a passable test. For me the 'oh god the house is on fire' test is more important than 'oh god there is a robber in the house' test since I live in area where house fire is around hundred times more likely than a robber entry, but hey hou.
You get the better safe you hide. And then you get a cheap one that thieves steal. And it is the one that has a glitter bomb rigged to go off when someone opens the door. BOOM! GLITTERY! Is it evil? Well, yes but really if I wanted them dead. I'd be home and shot them.
@Swampy dude clearly bought one and is upset that he feels stupid now. He's grasping at straws giving others bad advice who may or may not have drastically different security needs than he. Not everything can be kept in a bank. Just because he doesn't have anything valuable enough to justify a proper safe doesn't mean the rest of the world doesn't either.
To be fair it is sold as a 'Fire safe' and the insualtion is to, protect the contents from heat. If the safe is bolted in place, the average house burglar is not going to be carrying power tools, nor wanting to make noise. These safes are at the bottom end of the consumer market and anyone with valuables would be looking to pay much more.
I literally thought saw dust was falling on the floor at first but to find out there is no rebar or any kind or metal structure inside is mind blowing. I work in the automotive field and I have ran into things that baffled like this in the beginning so its I breath of fresh air to find something that surprises me these days. Cheers
It's a *FIRE SAFE*, the dust stuff that is falling out is the insulation that protects the contents against FIRE. It's not intended to protect against theft, which is why it doesn't offer any particular protection against theft.
LMAO, "Zoomed in on the Master Lock Logo" What junk, and the funny part is portable safes are just that "Portable" the thief can take it home and open it when they want.
@Tyrant Patrol it's a portable safe 😩 you don't get bolts .... or bolt holes cause it's portable ..... PORTABLE!!!!!!!! Just get it dude why won't you get it
These safes are not designed for being burglary-proof - they're designed for fire resistance. The keypad and lock are just for deterrent measures. You would keep things in here that would be a hassle to replace in the event of a fire, but not necessarily of much value. Things like passports, birth certificates, titles, etc. You definitely do not want to keep a lot of cash or jewelry in these, keep those in an iron safe or preferably in a safe deposit box at your bank.
I want to disagree. I put mine on my kitchen counter and lock my bread and doughnuts in it. Not one mouse has broken into it, to steal my stash. It does a fine job.
With a "circular saw" I am one of the few (retired) tradesman left that doesn't use the term "skilsaw" . Looks like you actually did use a Skilsaw (brand name) there! Yet you know the proper term to use in regards to the tool. Great video!
Yeh, it's called a honeypot. Amateurs will waste time on the decoy safe in the bedroom or home-office, while the real goodies are hidden in a slick in the basement wall or something.
@@ArielNMz step one is checking anything you have access to first. Safe come last if you have to do destructive opening. It is also prefered to load the whole safe up and bring it back to work with if you can.
@@anhduc0913 yes but if you can't open the toolboxes or the safe you'll take the safe because it's easier to remove and likely has more valuable stuff in it
not a good idea because some thieves actually steal tools because sometimes they can be very valuable especially power tools or more popular brands of hand tools
Not at all. There are some materials that are almost impossible to saw through and they're mainly clay+concrete(with some additives) so it would be mainly dust if there was a tool good enough to saw through it
In their defense this is fire safe, and not burglar safe. It's primarily meant as a fire proof place to store stuff. It must not be confused with a safe.
Yeah, I think LPL is wrong to claim that the only reason for using a product like this is for theft prevention. But I do agree that using words like "safe" in the context of this is confusing, since "fire safe" sounds like a safe that also offers fire protection.
@@kevinh3979 The same reason you have a lock on anything. Locks exist to restrict access to two groups of people: people who have permission, and people who are prepared to expend enough effort to get around the lock. When you choose the lock, you're choosing how much effort is needed from people who don't have your permission to access the material. Typically, you want to choose a lock that's strong enough that the people you want to keep out will say "Eh, it's not worth all that effort just to get that thing." If your safe contains a million dollars and a signed photo of Albert Einstein, people might go to some pretty extreme lengths to get into it. If it contains five dollars and a signed photo of your high school science teacher, the lock's just there to stop people rummaging through your stuff.
@@raffyc66 A safe is a container for protecting valuables against theft or fire or both. The thing that you're calling a "fireproof filing cabinet" is called a "fire safe". There is nothing misleading _per se_ about a fire safe that provides very little security against theft. However, I think the actual problem here is that the product is called "sentry safe". The word "sentry" implies that this is intended to be a security safe as well as a fire safe, and that does seem misleading.
This safe comes with bolts for bolting it down to a wood or concrete floor, which would have made this particular attack more of a hassle. Not too much more of a hassle, though - you could probably do four cuts on the top and then pry a square chunk out that you could reach down through. This is fine as a *fire* safe, though. Housefires don't have circular saws or high-power magnets or any of the other ways of popping one of these open.
Yeah, he just carried it off to do that at home at his leisure without having to worry about getting caught. I think you can cut through the micro thin this thing with a simple hacksaw - cut through the shell, pull or pry it off it off , then break apart the foam with a machete.
@@clambroth1923 You could just as easily open it without tools, if you don't care about actually harming whats inside of it. Just drop it from a reasonable height, the sheet metal will bend and you should be able to peel the rest of it off. Then you only have the fire isolation stuff left, which you can basically scratch out if you wanted to, stuff is quite brittle.
@@needmorespaceformyna 2:32 - just roll the seam, use chisel to roll the seam out, peel back both sides, jig-saw to get to the inside... watched a lock-smith do it to a safe purchased at an estate-auction for the purchaser on site... took less time that LPL with the circular saw.
Thanks, LockPickingLawyer. After watching you saw the thing in half I immediately became confident enough to bludgeon it open with a claw hammer. I was able to do it in less than an hour and save some very important documents. Laughable how thin the metal is, and how all the important locking bars slot into the plastic.
Lol man I forgot my code awhile back and just took a crowbar to it and prided the side off till the door opened. Really I just buy these to keep things out of reach of my kids lol
That's not illegal. LPL didn't say that he would "open it without a skill" attack. He said "low skill attack". He's a lawyer, wouldn't make such a rookie mistake.
@@heroslippy6666 For many uses, "fireproof" is defined in code, usually fulfilling its designed for a certain amount of time with a certain temperature fire without additional oxidants added. It does not mean impossible, and can at times even mean ablative. Just because you could squirt some ClF3 on it and get it to burn, doesn't mean it isn't going to be considered fireproof. I haven't had to get things certified as bulletproof or ensure that an assembly is so, but I would guess that it has a similar codified definition somewhere.
@@notpoliticallycorrect4774 or you could build one yourself into your house wall with concrete, thick sheet of metal and a mechanical lock mechanism that isn't obvious. Your classical decoration Acting as a lever, connected by ropes and all that. Stick a dummy lock on the sheet of metal. I doubt the average robber will figure out whats going on or if he does, he will have to make a mess of the place to enter the safe. 🤷♂️
Yeah everything is made so cheap it's ridiculous to even try to find anything that is actually good. The companies use the cheapest materials. Then use the cheapest labor. And put it together as fast as possible while just barely staying in the range of their own standards. While taking shortcuts to avoid lawsuits. They probably spend more time worming their way into loopholes than actually using their resources in an efficient way.
@@ArsyaUtomo If you watch many of these you find Master Locks have notorious issues like being easy to pick despite solid construction or their one "Lock Out, Tag Out" lock that has a relatively pick resistant core but a weak body and shackle.
I just bought the dial combination version for $30 from a bin store. They had the book taped to the top but they said they didn’t have the key or combination. I knew the combination was on the back of the book, and I have a 7 pin tubular lock pick/decoder. Once I got it home I got the combo from the book, entered it, and voila, it was unlocked. I didn’t even need to pick the lock. The keys and mounting hardware were inside.
Carbide for steel and diamond wheel for ceramics and you're inside. Good luck if it's 1" thick steel though. Thick steel you'd need horsepower and good luck holding onto the saw. That was 0.018" sheet metal, scissors can cut it.
You can also open certain models using powerful rare earth magnets. You have to trigger the contactor which controls the lock solenoid or by moving the solenoid itself.
Thanks for showing this. I learned how crappy these safes were a few years ago. It's essentially a thin metal mold with a bunch of injection-molded cement and foam inside. When I dropped mine off of the end of a truck, the plastic grommet on the back popped off and a bunch of the injection-molded filling spewed out. Later, I found that there was a daylight showing inside the safe. Total piece of junk.
They claim 1700 deg F for one hour. While most people don't buy these for fire protection, I did make use of it, everything inside was intact after being in a house fire.
Surrely this doesn't count as "deficient" It's a fire safe, the idea is that it will survive a house fire and you can recover it....house fires don't usually involve a lot of saws. This was built for a purpose, hence why amost the entirety of its thickness is fire retardant insulation.
Exactly this comment... And Birman, of course he has a password, because you don't want people flipping through the kind of documents one would place in such a safe. Think of kids, a housekeeper or a visitor. Someone who is curiouse, but usually not nosy enough to go get a circular saw. IF there has been a fire, the lock probaly wont open and you actually want to be able to cut the thing open...

In the example shown above, the set up is comparing a fluke(fish) to a (locking) safe.
The punchline is the inference that when one cut open a fish there are "guts" (and guts are also used to infer strength and bravery),
while on the other hand the 'safe' lacks the messy fish guts and also lacks the inferred strength.
The 'delivery' is the fashion in which the 'set up' is made and respects the common practice of the longer the set up / the shorter the punchline.
And of course the joke and it's delivery can be measured as good or bad in terms of 'faffs'.
Faffs or laughs are the quantitative number of actual chuckles made and the length of time the chuckling time persist.
Therefore:
faffs(X) * T(ime) = humor
Humor with a high number are sometimes known as "gags".
And gags that work often and repeatedly are called "shtick' (a.k.a. 'bits)
A shtick (Yiddish: שטיק) is a comic theme or gimmick. The word entered the English language from the Yiddish shtik (שטיק), in turn derived from German Stück and Polish sztuka (both ultimately from Proto-Germanic *stukkiją), all meaning "piece" or "thing"; note that "Theaterstück" is the German word for Play (theatre) (and is a synonym of "Schauspiel", literally "viewing play" in contrast to the "Singspiel").
Sometime in performance it is necessary to give the audience permission to laugh or introduce that a joke is to follow. This is done to avoid unwanted tension that the joke can not resolve.
For Example:
(This will be your personal punchline Mr. Ywgx, wait for it!)
Your Punchline:
Isn't Naah Indian Bread?
(LAFFS and Giggles!!!)
Notice the brevity of the punchline is just 4 words. (this line is an example of "beating a dead horse".)
Well that's all I have for you today, if you do have any question please put them below (this line is an example of humor thru repetition).
@@PrincetonTV did u copy paste this or do u have nothing to do
The outer metal casing is so thin that this safe probably doesn't even qualify as "slash proof".

Not really - it's a FIRE PROOF safe. It's not intended to provide any theft protection.

If you rephrase the intro and conclusion this could be an ad for "Amazing circular saw, cuts through safe like BUTTER!"
Because the safe is made of butter
@@vanjamenadzer butter’s actually tough when it comes out of the fridge, this shit was hot trash

oath
ive had headphone packages that were harder too open
you are right. the sentry safes like that are fire safety boxes (with some protection against a fire) that's why they use thin sheet steel
a plastic storage tub filled with foam would take longer to get in
No kidding, the IBM towers back in the 90s had 1.1 or 1.2 mm thick cases, i can't confirm for sure because i don't have it around me, but that metal case was strong enough to support a broken beam once in an emergency. I've been transplanting my computers in it for years.
That has to be one of the cheapest, most anemic saws that "Skill Saw" makes. Just thinking how quickly a model 77 would take care of that puppy.
I was thinking exactly the same thing as I watched
But bolt it down in your house in a cupboard or something similar and then what use would this attack method be. This safe looks like its built better than most American homes.
Unreal, I had no idea that these "safes" had so little actual metal in them. I ignorantly just thought it was solid steel. Great video.
They'd be much heavier and expensive, to your point.
@@scottashe984 on the other hand they advertise them saying it's a "solid steel construction" which is kind of misleading, because people think that means it's made of "solid steel", where what they mean is "solid construction that involves steel"...

"Low skill attack"
:c
Exactly. As a weekend carpenter, that was my first thought when he was on the last section. 😉
The thing is, these kinds of safes they market are against burglars who go through your draws and cabinets, snatch what they can of value and take off. This will prevent a quick snatch and grab break in; however, even a higher quality and more durable safe will not stop a prepared thief who knows what they're up against. These safes are based upon the assumption the thief didn't prepare to bring tools beforehand with the expectation of having to breach a safe. In general, it does what it's designed to do.
Exactly. Nobody expects a cheap Walmart safe to slow down anyone determined. It defends against the lazy and opportunistic. This does that and offers fire protection at an affordable price. Your cost is directly proportional to the amount of time and effort needed to defeat your protections.
Or makes it easy! hey its a safe there is everything of value lets grab it and run. Like atleats you need to secure the safe to something for it to properly work. But then again just a custom hiding place and you have the same thing expect fire protections but then again you can add that to your hiding place.....
Never saw such a weak safe. That metal part is even thinner then a car panel LOL.
@@xsynergist Whell what does a safe mean to you then???
For me its mean it will secure the contents inside otherwise its just a cabin.
@@SCHIJTERBAAS What it means is your level of protection is proportional to your cost. How long will it take a determined attacker to defeat? The more you spend the higher that time value will be. This safe protects you from fire and people without tools. You want more protection pay for heavier safes and thicker steels.
@@xsynergist You totally right good description of it, spot on mate!!
But at it cost what i can find online retialed for : 240 dollars. For that money its then better to build a home made fire resistant custom hiding spot. This "safe" is more a protected fire box then a
actually safe in my opinion. This so called safe is just gonna stand out so the thief knows what to grab and the run away. again in my opinion.
That shot at the end. I always get a bit of a "re-stomp the groin" kinda vibe from LPL when it comes to Master Lock.
The John Wick sure shot to the head 🤣
Master Ken would re-stomp a masterlock every time!

That's it. I'm shorting Master Lock stock.
I was hoping someone that wasn’t a simpleton would notice what he did. It was hilarious.
God damn
I’m sure someone with your pfp really knows how to steal wealth tho.
First thing that hit me was 'Made in Mexico'.
so... the biggest impediment to cutting it was ... getting the blade guard out of the way
@4estrose Shit really? I was wondering what that blade is? Did not know this was possible.
@4estrose the safe isn't even metal why would he need a meta blade?
Wood blades by design are expecting to need to cut through metal screws or nails, while they say it "can't" and "shouldn't" they know people will hit screws and nails hidden in boards and don't want to constantly have to warranty blades and saws because of it.
Cutting through a metal sheet thinner than a razor blade is plenty easy, especially since that foam can be basically picked away with your finger nails.
With metal that thin a good utility knife might cut through it.
The irony of it.
Also blade guards don't have to be like this. My new saw never gets the guard caught up.
Common lock picking tools: "Please let me in."
LPL's preferred tools, combined with his skills and know-how: "You're letting me in."
This video: "I WASN'T ASKING, YOU ARE LETTING ME IN NOW."
Excellent demo of a consumer "safe". I learned this lesson a decade ago when someone used an axe to break into a similar safe at my Church. I volunteered to find a relacement, and fortunately met a used safe dealer in western NJ. He gave me an excellent education on safes, and showed me his collection of profesionally violated high security safes, such as those you might find at a diamond dealer or a pawn shop. In any case I came away with a nice used TL-15 safe, which is rated to withstand a professional attack with tools for 15 minutes. Although not much bigger than the "safe" it replaced, it weighed about 900 lbs, and we bolted it to the floor. One should keep in mind that while burgulary rated safes have more resistance to say, a lawyer with a skil saw, they are probably not rated for fire resistance. An option is to place a fire resistant safe or storage box within the burglar safe to achieve both. Bottom line, if the safe doesnt weigh a half ton or more, its probably not burglar resistant. And, after seeing thick steel plate safes filled with concrete embedded with carbide chips that had been violated, I realized that one must weigh the risk agains the cost of a good safe
I’m gonna paint my beach cooler black and call it a beer safe.

Much more fascinating than the ease with which this safe was sawed in half is the unholy precision of your sawing to almost perfectly hit your starting point.

I had a safe similar to this for fire protection and to discourage a nosy house cleaner or guest. It never occurred to me that it would provide security against a determined burglar.
even bank vaults cant keep a determined burglar
Yeah I have something from this brand as well. I definitely don’t think about keeping valuables in there, just important documents I want protected from fire.
Nothing will.. A circular saw with a metal cutting blade can cut through 1/2 inch plate just as easily. So I'm not sure how this is showing anything special. The main thing is that it's not heavy and can be carried away; and I don't think it has holes to bolt it down.
@@calholliit does have bolt holes. Even comes with some pretty large anchor bolts.
@@stonemanbytes Nice.. But like I said, you can cut through that same safe if it were 1/2" steel with that same saw and it only takes about 2x or 3x the time.. So only a few minutes.
Damn! :o
It's faster to cut these safe-walls in half, than cutting wood of similar thickness!
Haha, I started to think it might be better to make wooden out of cutted hardwood tree
Any time someone would call my shop asking about a safe opening, during the conversation, if the brand name "Sentry" came up, i would immediately reprice my quote as a standard opening rather than a safe opening.
Then when they asked why it suddenly got cheaper, i would let them know, "That's Sentry brand. It's not a 'safe', it's just a lock box. They're so easy to get into, I'd feel bad charging you for opening a real safe."
Aren't these things just for fire resistance and protection against low effort opportunistic types?
@@billtheunjust
The way I see it, they're for keeping small children out of non-critical stuff.
billtheunjust I'd say that the real utility is keeping important papers and such safe from house fires and water damage (splash from fire hoses and such, probably not from literally being submerged underwater for any length of time) but as far as security goes, it's no better than a metal filing cabinet with a lock on it. Enough to stop klepto teenagers or a sneak thief who gets in the house while you're asleep but any real thief who has a little time and can afford to make some noise (homeowner isn't home) will get into it without much difficulty.
I see your name is the same as your daddy and you daddy before.
How do you get into a sentry safe vs. an "actual" safe when you're on the job?
I like how LPL switches between precision attack and sheer brute force
He's a man of many talents
Then zooms in with subtle efficiency to show the true scam.
Brute force...?
This un-safe can be cuttet with a butter knife!
Pretty sure you could drop this a few times and it would open right up.
This is why you mount the safe inside a cabinet or closet. Then you can’t roll the safe around. We only keep documents in our safe (deed to house, vehicle titles, birth certificates, etc).

Have you tested any safes that have an actual burglary rating? Would love to see if a safe rated with an Underwriter Laboratory rating of tl-15 actually takes more than 15 minutes to break open. Not to mention how you would attack the safe. That would be a great video.
If I'm being honest, I was more concerned about the saw giving kickback and hurting you than the shoddy construction of the safe. Kickback is no joke with skill saws, they like to go back and to the left, right to where your hand was. Last major kickback I had almost caught me on the inside of my thigh, would have killed me. Bought a bandsaw after that for ripping thick material.
I was thinking the same watching it
Same thought.
After he cut the first side, he should have said “click out of one”
Top side binds, right side binds, bottom binds, last side binds - now give it a gentle turn with a crowbar - and see ....
Me too, I think he was using the left side of the plate to guide along that seam. He must have known how deep to cut off that line too, I'm sure he makes no presumptions.

"ok here we have the luxury version, 10 inch steel plates, 8 lock cylinders, integrated tempering alarm, internal power suppl-"
"yeah... uhm... that's out of my price range, what about that one over there?"
"oh that's just a foam-box covered in sheet metal."
"i'll take it!"
Considering the first one is a safe aimed to combat thieves and the second is a fire-safety lockbox aimed to keep documents and stuff like that safe from housefire or flood, well, I'd rather take the fire-box to my house and leave the luxury safe to bank.
I like to call it the 'oh god the house is on fire' test, akin to the Chieftain's 'oh god the tank is on fire' test in that when shit hits the pooper and you have need to emergency exit your house, how long does it take to gather essential important things like indentification, certificates, graduation documents, etcetra that would be threathened by fire, flood or other natural disaster? Opening a safety vault presumably located in your cellar for maximum security, is far slower than just grabbing a file container or perhaps a small lockbox from your bedroom, which can handle rough treatment and can withstand fire for a while if you need to leave it behind during your escape. I can grab the file box from beside my bed, throw it out of the window, nab a pair of slippers and toss my bedsheet over the broken window's frame to keep me safe from glass shards while I climb over it and get out of the house in less than a minute with clothes, 'shoes', phone, credit cards and my identification papers, which I consider a passable test.
For me the 'oh god the house is on fire' test is more important than 'oh god there is a robber in the house' test since I live in area where house fire is around hundred times more likely than a robber entry, but hey hou.
More foil than sheet metal I'd say...
You get the better safe you hide. And then you get a cheap one that thieves steal. And it is the one that has a glitter bomb rigged to go off when someone opens the door. BOOM! GLITTERY! Is it evil? Well, yes but really if I wanted them dead. I'd be home and shot them.
@Swampy dude clearly bought one and is upset that he feels stupid now. He's grasping at straws giving others bad advice who may or may not have drastically different security needs than he. Not everything can be kept in a bank. Just because he doesn't have anything valuable enough to justify a proper safe doesn't mean the rest of the world doesn't either.
Wow I thought it was at the very least concrete, not foam!
To be fair it is sold as a 'Fire safe' and the insualtion is to, protect the contents from heat. If the safe is bolted in place, the average house burglar is not going to be carrying power tools, nor wanting to make noise. These safes are at the bottom end of the consumer market and anyone with valuables would be looking to pay much more.
I literally thought saw dust was falling on the floor at first but to find out there is no rebar or any kind or metal structure inside is mind blowing. I work in the automotive field and I have ran into things that baffled like this in the beginning so its I breath of fresh air to find something that surprises me these days. Cheers
It's a *FIRE SAFE*, the dust stuff that is falling out is the insulation that protects the contents against FIRE.
It's not intended to protect against theft, which is why it doesn't offer any particular protection against theft.
LMAO, "Zoomed in on the Master Lock Logo" What junk, and the funny part is portable safes are just that "Portable" the thief can take it home and open it when they want.

@Tyrant Patrol go watch the video no bolt holes ? You have a different model?
@Tyrant Patrol so it wasnt meant to be bolted if you had to drill holes in it lmfao
These safes are not designed for being burglary-proof - they're designed for fire resistance. The keypad and lock are just for deterrent measures.
You would keep things in here that would be a hassle to replace in the event of a fire, but not necessarily of much value. Things like passports, birth certificates, titles, etc.
You definitely do not want to keep a lot of cash or jewelry in these, keep those in an iron safe or preferably in a safe deposit box at your bank.

In their defense this is fire safe, and not burglar safe. It's primarily meant as a fire proof place to store stuff. It must not be confused with a safe.
Yeah, I think LPL is wrong to claim that the only reason for using a product like this is for theft prevention. But I do agree that using words like "safe" in the context of this is confusing, since "fire safe" sounds like a safe that also offers fire protection.
then why have a lock on it?
@@kevinh3979 The same reason you have a lock on anything. Locks exist to restrict access to two groups of people: people who have permission, and people who are prepared to expend enough effort to get around the lock. When you choose the lock, you're choosing how much effort is needed from people who don't have your permission to access the material. Typically, you want to choose a lock that's strong enough that the people you want to keep out will say "Eh, it's not worth all that effort just to get that thing." If your safe contains a million dollars and a signed photo of Albert Einstein, people might go to some pretty extreme lengths to get into it. If it contains five dollars and a signed photo of your high school science teacher, the lock's just there to stop people rummaging through your stuff.
It is marketed as a “Safe”. Not a fireproof filing cabinet.
@@raffyc66 A safe is a container for protecting valuables against theft or fire or both. The thing that you're calling a "fireproof filing cabinet" is called a "fire safe". There is nothing misleading _per se_ about a fire safe that provides very little security against theft. However, I think the actual problem here is that the product is called "sentry safe". The word "sentry" implies that this is intended to be a security safe as well as a fire safe, and that does seem misleading.

That if you buy it at Walmart they have their 90 year old Walmart greeter carry it to your car for you.
This safe comes with bolts for bolting it down to a wood or concrete floor, which would have made this particular attack more of a hassle. Not too much more of a hassle, though - you could probably do four cuts on the top and then pry a square chunk out that you could reach down through.
This is fine as a *fire* safe, though. Housefires don't have circular saws or high-power magnets or any of the other ways of popping one of these open.
imagine walking out your front door to just see Mr. LPL sawing into a safe.

@@clambroth1923 You could just as easily open it without tools, if you don't care about actually harming whats inside of it. Just drop it from a reasonable height, the sheet metal will bend and you should be able to peel the rest of it off. Then you only have the fire isolation stuff left, which you can basically scratch out if you wanted to, stuff is quite brittle.
I think he's picked enough Master Lock products where that doesn't matter anymore.
@@needmorespaceformyna
2:32 - just roll the seam, use chisel to roll the seam out, peel back both sides, jig-saw to get to the inside... watched a lock-smith do it to a safe purchased at an estate-auction for the purchaser on site... took less time that LPL with the circular saw.
he doesnt have to pick it, master locks just open for him before he can even get his tools
LPL: “Today I’m going to be picking this safe”
*spools up circular saw*
SentrySafe: wait that’s illegal
honest, I think you could get through it using a pocket knife. might take a little longer but you would be quite
I’m going to show my skills and pick open the safe today using only a skill saw
in half
The irony of discreet 😂
I used an angle grinder to grind off the hinges, and pried it with a crowbar once. Pretty easy with power tools.
Thanks for all these amazing tips, you my friend have made me a very rich man!!
Gotta love the "Low Skil" attack he employed.
Lock-picking evolved so much since I last saw these videos.
not funny
kek
Definitely funny.
Quite funny
Safe sawing lawyer as a second channel maybe?
While watching this I thought to myself:
"Wow, Masterlock should buy that company!"
And then he zooms in at the end. LOL
Master Lock must hate the lock picking lawyer
Oh its made by master! That was quite a dramatic demonstration. The saw had no trouble cutting right through the sides of the safe.
Thanks, LockPickingLawyer. After watching you saw the thing in half I immediately became confident enough to bludgeon it open with a claw hammer. I was able to do it in less than an hour and save some very important documents. Laughable how thin the metal is, and how all the important locking bars slot into the plastic.
Master lock's whole ethos is that if it looks secure thats good enough
That was sentry safe
@@GreyBlackWolf Sentry Safe is owned by Master Lock
@@GreyBlackWolf did you not watch the whole video?
"I'm going to open this up using a low skill attack"
*Uses Skill Saw*
Me: "That's illegal, its got skill in its name"
But he was holding it really low.
That's cause the saw has all the skill so the user doesn't need any 😂
Lol man I forgot my code awhile back and just took a crowbar to it and prided the side off till the door opened. Really I just buy these to keep things out of reach of my kids lol
That's not illegal. LPL didn't say that he would "open it without a skill" attack. He said "low skill attack". He's a lawyer, wouldn't make such a rookie mistake.
@@eksentrysyti i think you missed the joke.
That’s the one exact same skill saw my dad had. Nostalgia abounds.
I think this is the longest LPL episode I've ever seen.
Haha, good job Buddy 👍👍
It wouldn't surprise me if the filling turned out to actually be flammable.
At this point, I'm a little upset he didn't atleast hold a lighter up to the exposed foam.
As foam no it wouldn't burn, but as an aerosol yes it would.
I do think that insulation is questionable though.
@Nobody Knows The word "fireproof" and "bullet proof" are lies. Resistant, yes. Proof implies something impossible.
@@heroslippy6666 For many uses, "fireproof" is defined in code, usually fulfilling its designed for a certain amount of time with a certain temperature fire without additional oxidants added. It does not mean impossible, and can at times even mean ablative. Just because you could squirt some ClF3 on it and get it to burn, doesn't mean it isn't going to be considered fireproof.
I haven't had to get things certified as bulletproof or ensure that an assembly is so, but I would guess that it has a similar codified definition somewhere.
@Nobody Knows ok lol
When I gather my Ocean’s eleven team, Lawyer is the first on my list.
He'll rat you out the moment he's caught to save his own skin...
"How's his nerves?"
"Not so bad you'd notice"
you won't need the other nine ;D
Well, I think it would basically be Ocean's two. Or even Ocean's one once TLPL realizes he doesn't need you.
First of His Name he is booked for Ocean’s 15.
This man proves daily that many companies have the motto of "its all about the money."
The fact you opened it with a skilsaw! The thing was weaker than some of the wood we use in building.
This channel isn't for finding what products to avoid. It's for abandoning all hope.
Ok, so is there any recommendation for a decent one which can't get hacked in minutes??
@@fred8674 A real safe this size costs about 15 times this one and weighs 10 times as much.
@@notpoliticallycorrect4774 or you could build one yourself into your house wall with concrete, thick sheet of metal and a mechanical lock mechanism that isn't obvious. Your classical decoration Acting as a lever, connected by ropes and all that. Stick a dummy lock on the sheet of metal.
I doubt the average robber will figure out whats going on or if he does, he will have to make a mess of the place to enter the safe.
🤷♂️
Yeah everything is made so cheap it's ridiculous to even try to find anything that is actually good. The companies use the cheapest materials. Then use the cheapest labor. And put it together as fast as possible while just barely staying in the range of their own standards. While taking shortcuts to avoid lawsuits. They probably spend more time worming their way into loopholes than actually using their resources in an efficient way.
@@richardmcgravystein4188 idk how could you make a good quality safe for cheap.
"Master Lock LLC"
Oh. that explains many things.
I don't get it?
@@ArsyaUtomo I guess he was referring to the part where the company is a Limited Liability Company
@@ArsyaUtomo If you watch many of these you find Master Locks have notorious issues like being easy to pick despite solid construction or their one "Lock Out, Tag Out" lock that has a relatively pick resistant core but a weak body and shackle.
@@jszigetvari no. Master lock is notorious for making extremely unsafe and unreliable locks
@@ArsyaUtomo master lock is known for making very cheap locks that are very easy to pick and labeling them as "unpickable" and such
Master Lock be like "aww damn, we've been discovered!"
I just bought the dial combination version for $30 from a bin store. They had the book taped to the top but they said they didn’t have the key or combination. I knew the combination was on the back of the book, and I have a 7 pin tubular lock pick/decoder. Once I got it home I got the combo from the book, entered it, and voila, it was unlocked. I didn’t even need to pick the lock. The keys and mounting hardware were inside.
its hurts me to see him use powertools, endangering his magic hands...
Did someone call me?
He was wearing gloves and seem to have a very steady hand. But would you expect anything less from a professional lock picker?
@@magichands135 Hilarious
@@magichands135 epic af. Made me forgot why I even click on the original comment.. Bravo haha
@@magichands135 how does it feel to be used by LPL
Ahh the circular saw, the greatest lockpick of all.
But, it has so many teeth, isn't it considered a rake in this circumstance?
@@Don.Challenger I think that's a blade made to cut wood as well
@@fabricatorzayac dont think the knowledge is common enough for a woosh here
Carbide for steel and diamond wheel for ceramics and you're inside. Good luck if it's 1" thick steel though. Thick steel you'd need horsepower and good luck holding onto the saw. That was 0.018" sheet metal, scissors can cut it.
looks that way
You can also open certain models using powerful rare earth magnets. You have to trigger the contactor which controls the lock solenoid or by moving the solenoid itself.
Thanks for showing this. I learned how crappy these safes were a few years ago. It's essentially a thin metal mold with a bunch of injection-molded cement and foam inside. When I dropped mine off of the end of a truck, the plastic grommet on the back popped off and a bunch of the injection-molded filling spewed out. Later, I found that there was a daylight showing inside the safe. Total piece of junk.
I'm just gonna admire the fact that he freehanded that cut together perfectly.
He placed his machine so the left hand edge followed the line of the safe door
freehanded? lol no, followed the line LOL
It's not terribly hard when you're only cutting through 1/16" piece of sheet metal and foam insulation.
@@expert_fretwork foam cement; not hardened steel by any means, but still...
@@abigailbramble6774 That puny little saw could kick an ant about 5cm....
"I can't speak to the fire protection"
Wait, you're not going to take a flamethrower to it? Well I'm underwhelmed
the lpl needs to hit these with flame throwers or at least throw them on the grill.
They claim 1700 deg F for one hour. While most people don't buy these for fire protection, I did make use of it, everything inside was intact after being in a house fire.
Here's we flamethrower that Bosnian Bill and me made
Thermite - easy and portable ;)
a flamethrower really wouldn't simulate a house fire....
Surrely this doesn't count as "deficient"
It's a fire safe, the idea is that it will survive a house fire and you can recover it....house fires don't usually involve a lot of saws. This was built for a purpose, hence why amost the entirety of its thickness is fire retardant insulation.
I know of a notory office that sells these safes, and they specifically advertise them as being fire-proof, not for security lol.
I doubt fire will attempt to use passwords either, so why did they bother with that?
Exactly this comment... And Birman, of course he has a password, because you don't want people flipping through the kind of documents one would place in such a safe. Think of kids, a housekeeper or a visitor. Someone who is curiouse, but usually not nosy enough to go get a circular saw. IF there has been a fire, the lock probaly wont open and you actually want to be able to cut the thing open...
I have this safe for the longest time. I cannot believe the deception in marketing. I no longer store any valuables inside. Thank you LPL
