Very useful!! I used a nail to make the tension wrench, took a few minutes but it worked out pretty well. Finally could free my laptop from its cage, and saved myself from feeling stupid... Thanks a lot for sharing!!!
Nobody believes me, but one day my sister and I were working at a horse barn when I had finished my chores early. Out of pure boredom (and being alone), I tried picking a coke machine. I used a little tension and pushed each individual ball inside the keyhole using the end of a paperclip. Suddenly, the main latch popped out! I had genuinely picked a coke machine! Unfortunately, I was so excited and convinced that I was was a master locksmith that I shut the door to show my sister how I did it...and I couldn't get it open again. Perhaps it was a fluke or just pure luck. I looked like such an idiot though.
It’s true a thief can get into anything i had a lock box and someone got into it was just saving for emergency....hadn’t checked the box in over 2 months
I figured out another way to do it without lock picks. I grabbed an old junk tape measure, and cut two small pieces off it. Using the edge I cut, I pushed 1 piece in on the bottom, then did the same for the top. The way I got it to work was by pinching the two pieces together which put pressure on the center circular piece, while at the same time pushing inwards which flexed it out so it pressed against the pins, and twisted. I was shocked myself that this worked when I figured it out, cause usually my ideas don't pan out, but it worked first try! However, the second one took like 7 tries, but it still seemed easier than the method in the video. This was done on an Ace II circular lock.
Bluraz can u explain that 1 more time how big were the 2 pieces of measuring tape and then what did you do? I'm trying to figure it out now Please let me know Thanks again I'm very interested in how you are saying you did it.
Heh, is your channel still up? I am seeing this 9 Yeats later. I like your style, and u answer some obvious questions that other internet pickers don't. Ex. Like the turning tool slipping but don't reset.
Seeing how u said they are all easy to pick with the tool. Please brother, tell me which tubular impressioning tool will open my ace 2 7pin lock. And how much tension do I use on the turning tool. Give me something to compare to. Ex. Pressing elevator button
You are holding lock on your fingers, but if you have to open- operating while installed onto the door, the picking would not going easily for you to pick.
Did you know that if you pick it and move it just a little bit, not the full quarter turn,then roll up a somewhat study card and tape it up to the inside diameter of the lock itself. put the card in and make an impression from the study pins and you will have a key for the lock itself and be able turn it all the way open.
Thanks for the very clear instructions. My lock doesn't have that little groove in the core / center to stick anything into, so it's really hard to tension it. Any advice?
@@PickingandEntering I have no idea sadly, it's on an old electronic safe with dead batteries and the keys inside haha. There's no brand on it. I've found out that there's a tiny gap inside the ring that I need to put rotating tension into, with a little anchoring tool of some sorts. I got pretty far with some makeshift stuff just now, but lost my grip and it snapped back :') I have no experience with locks whatsoever but I think I'm getting somewhere.
@@PickingandEntering I gave up on picking it open haha, but I might still try another time because it got me real interested, what a puzzle. I finally managed to open it without destroying it by using a trick where you smash the safe real hard while wriggling the handle, to bounce the lock open internally. Yay! Later I found a manual, and it said to turn the key COUNTERCLOCKWISE.... _facepalm_ been picking clockwise... Is that common?
Toward the beginning When you say "add tension to the Allan key" do you mean press down into the lock constantly, press sideways (like turning the lock) or do both?
@@anotherOneMore7 Yes. You put it in place, then push it sideways to make the core move as if you were turning the key. Keep the pressure all the way while picking. When all the pins are set, the sideway pressure will turn the core automatically. You need to adjust the pressure tho. Too much and the pins won't move. Too little and they will reset.
Would it be possible to pick this lock once, prevent it from sliding into the next position, and stick a soft object into the lock to impression the pins?
I think that although this type of lock can be picked, the amount of people that know how to pick them is very small in comparison to standard pin in tumblr type locks. So assuming you purchase a quality tubular lock you will have increased security.
mine has interchangeable tips. you would have to pull the pick and tension wrench out before it lock back up again. I'm sure it would work... I'll probable try that this weekend.

Like I always tell people, locks only keep out honest people, never trust a lock to keep you safe, it only buys you a few min's at most.
"Aloha Mora!"
Well you don't have to worry about this guy atleast
Always wondered about this motto. What does it mean?
I’m just trying to not pay for laundry at my house 🤷🏻♂️
& if you HAVE to rely on a lock... Get those American shrouded ones.

Didnt you tell this one in another video
I did the same the same thing at work last weekend. Used a ground down Allen wrench as a tension tool.
I appreciate the video, I watched several, I had lost the key to my safe that had my pistols in it. Your video showed me how to get it open.
Andy Chism Glad I could help!

could you post a video of the piece you cut? I would like to see what you mean
Bluraz I

Please let me know Thanks again I'm very interested in how you are saying you did it.
Put a bit of a rough/serrated surface on your tension tool. Helps tremendously to prevent it from slipping out.
Pat Male: True but some one can make a tension wrench out of a allen key fairly easily . Thanks for sharing .
easear
It took halv an hour, but it worked. Thanks!
Good video. Had one a guy lost a key to and as a newbie it helped
Dan Kin I’m glad this helped!
Wrap some athletic tape around the allen key and it won't slip out quite as easily.
@Michael DeRose
Smart. very good use of the allen key
Heh, is your channel still up? I am seeing this 9 Yeats later. I like your style, and u answer some obvious questions that other internet pickers don't. Ex. Like the turning tool slipping but don't reset.
Very nice. Didn't know it could be done like that. Thanks

I have a vending machine with a lost key ( im dumb and dropped it in the road somewhere) so thisbwas STUPID helpful
By the time you're done picking, the cops probably already arrested you. Lol
Ive just ordered my tubular pickset but it takes 2 months to come and i dont have time
You are holding lock on your fingers, but if you have to open- operating while installed onto the door, the picking would not going easily for you to pick.
Walmart game aisle here I come !:D
YoTypicalGamer hahahah
YoTypicalGamer you wouldant be fast anuth good look though
Dave Kulina they're Walmart employees not police so im sure anyone could do it
Yo/whatzu?
@@amagenarypowers9313 what kind of grammar is that?

Really ! I will have to try that, thanks for the idea.
+Michael DeRose Yep it works,as long as you only move it a little bit to keep the pins stiff.
Larry G 《 Thumper 》
What kind of card ??
Thanks for the very clear instructions.
My lock doesn't have that little groove in the core / center to stick anything into, so it's really hard to tension it. Any advice?
Ixupi Do you know who manufactures the lock? I could give you much better advice if I knew what lock you’re working with.
@@PickingandEntering I have no idea sadly, it's on an old electronic safe with dead batteries and the keys inside haha. There's no brand on it.

I got pretty far with some makeshift stuff just now, but lost my grip and it snapped back :') I have no experience with locks whatsoever but I think I'm getting somewhere.
Ixupi Yeah you’re best bet is to just spend a lot of time on it till you understand how the lock works lol

I finally managed to open it without destroying it by using a trick where you smash the safe real hard while wriggling the handle, to bounce the lock open internally. Yay! Later I found a manual, and it said to turn the key COUNTERCLOCKWISE.... _facepalm_ been picking clockwise...
Is that common?
Ixupi Yeah it’s pretty common, most of the time they are clockwise but it’s definitely not rare to have it go counter clockwise.
well it needs a special tension wrench obviously...
Pin 5 wouldn’t move. It was already pushed down. Do I need a better tension wrench?
Toward the beginning When you say "add tension to the Allan key" do you mean press down into the lock constantly, press sideways (like turning the lock) or do both?
You would add tension like you are turning the key normally.... (sideways as you mentioned) the whole time you are picking.
@@frankkeaton9563 OK so not applying additional pressure pushing down into the lock, just let it rest where it slides in without pressure, correct?
@@anotherOneMore7 Yes. You put it in place, then push it sideways to make the core move as if you were turning the key. Keep the pressure all the way while picking. When all the pins are set, the sideway pressure will turn the core automatically. You need to adjust the pressure tho. Too much and the pins won't move. Too little and they will reset.
Nice Picking!
Great video, Does the silver Allen key need to be in while you're pushing with the black one?
MuscleSheriff Yes, the silver Allen key has to be in the lock to add tension to the core while pushing in the pins.
@@PickingandEntering the whole way?
MuscleSheriff Yes unfortunately that is the case.
Bonito cilindro ese ilco...
Would it be possible to pick this lock once, prevent it from sliding into the next position, and stick a soft object into the lock to impression the pins?
I know this is an old comment but they do make a fool that does that
what's the size of the Allen wrench?
I believe it is a 3/32 or around that size in milometers
Pick it open and drop the tiniest amount of super glue in there...
Fbi requests your location
does this same method work to turn it back left to lock it ?
d jones Yes works both ways. However, the binding order will not be the same.
d jones i never thought they could relock once they opened the lock box had to go looking very hard for it
Nice!
Thanks man !
What's the size of the Allen key?
very, very small
@@kyo2510 lmfao
What size Allen Wrench? Tried using bobby pins for a tension wrench & it didn't work.
Atkrdu I used a 3/32 and used a bench grinder to change the shape from 6 sides to 4. Hopefully that helps.
I'm looking for a lock that is hard to break for my mailbox. I those this would be good, but now I'm second guessing, since u opened it
I think that although this type of lock can be picked, the amount of people that know how to pick them is very small in comparison to standard pin in tumblr type locks. So assuming you purchase a quality tubular lock you will have increased security.
The best lock money can buy is an Abloy. Those things are notoriously difficult to defeat.
Bass
pick to 1/16. decode. code cut.
Can u mold the inside of tubular lock and make key
Michael Brooks Technically it can be done but it’s not the easiest of tasks
How would u invert the mold so it's on outside
use a plug spinner.
+Paul MvN Wouldn't that get i the way of your pick? Plus isn't the neck to fat ?
mine has interchangeable tips. you would have to pull the pick and tension wrench out before it lock back up again. I'm sure it would work... I'll probable try that this weekend.
Ok cool, thanks for the tip !
+Paul MvN Plug spinner wouldn't work on a tubular lock...
Not in one shot anyway .
where do i buy one of those tubular at?
+Stefhan Robinett you can purchase the tool which looks like a screwdriver from lockpickshop.com along with the lock .
Not good use! My stuffs protected by one of those!
LoL
plenty of time for the cops to pick you up
