[161] Tutorial - Picking the Marks Hi-Security / Scorpion CX 5

The Marks Hi Security is a lovely lock, with six conventional pins and five sidebar elements. This tutorial shows you everything you need to know to beat it.

Great tutorial. You don't often get this valuable information presented in an easy to understand way.

Very interesting video tutorial and certainly is an interesting lock.

Thanks Gary - I really like it, it's a great example of a basic idea, done very well.

[@T4z3rbot]

Great video! Currently battling this lock so these tips are priceless.

[@MichaelMaynard]

Cheers bro, glad you liked it. The key to this lock really is progressive pinning, because both the pins and the sliders do feel a bit weird. Once you get a feel for both of the elements though, you're golden.

Yes sir, a beautiful lock for sure.
I have both Mark's High Security and Scorpion CX5 and love them dearly😍 Lol. And you did it complete justice with your How to pick / How it works video.
Thanks for sharing!!

[@MichaelMaynard]

Thanks bro, they're a lovely design aren't they? Slightly simplified sidebar compared to the Assa Twins but in the real world, probably just as secure. It's a pity this lock isn't better marketed to be honest.

For sure, a total shame to not be pushed to the same level as the other locks of the same level .
I know that it took me way to long to learn about them... and when I did it was there standard cores not high security cores. Lol

Fantastic tips, I'm definitely going to reference this video when I (eventually) buy one of these. Thanks for sharing.
