- Lock picking of a Folger Adam Detension lock. This lock has 5 levers and is HUGE. The levers have nasty false gates as well. I got this awesome lock from my good friend Thumper. Here is a link to his channel (but I'm pry sure you know him already)

One of the silliest use of a Folger Adam lock I have ever seen is at an immigration jail. It was an air force barrack and the door is a flimsy plywood door that weights maybe 10 pounds at most, locked with a Folger Adam lock. A good kick would have sent it flying.
It's feels really good when you get a good pick on camera. I noticed the bolt that goes through the gates has sharp edges just to help it get stuck in those false gates. I love watching a video when someone takes you through their thinking process. Excellent job sir, well done and what a beast of a lock too.
Thank you very much! I was really lucky to pick it that fast in this video, I spent dozens of hours to learn to pick this lock. I had a lot of fun 😁
Absolutely genius Keymaster! Wonderful job figuring it out and picking. 👍👍👍👍🧡
Thank you, I really appreciate that 😊
Awesome job 👍 Very well thought about process and great picking 👍😎
Thank you very much 😊
What a massive lock! Well done for picking it, those were some clever techniques you used!
Thank you! This lock is a gem in my collection 😍
Great technique awesome job on the open, good to see you Keymaster my friend.
Thank you my friend! This kind of locks are amazing 😍
Well done, excellent technique -- These are very cool and extreme heavy duty "jail" locks -- thanks for sharing
Thank you very much 😊
Another thing that also makes picking this pointless is that the key is quite large, and is very easy to duplicate. There have been people who have such good memory that they can take one good look at the key, and then file a piece of metal to duplicate a working key for it. That the key is large doesn't help. However a common way for inmates to duplicate the key is to steal the key, imprint it in chewing gum or other pliable materials, then copy it after returning them (so the guards don't trigger a lockdown). Good luck doing that with modern dimple multi-sided keys.
Though if you live in a safe country where home invasion isn't a thing (unfortunately not the USA), one could use one of these Folger Adam locks as their house key for novelty reasons...
That's why keyrings in prisons are solid instead of split ring and required to be chained to the person responsible for them. Key covers are also used so the bitting pattern can't be seen.
Nice to see a new technique outstanding Keymaster!
Thank you 😊
Great job, really cool seeing the insides.
Thank you! 😊
Great job! I have always wanted to pick one of those. They are really cool!
Thank you! Yes, that's a cool lock, I love it 😍 it's so huge and heavy!
Wow!
Amazing how you work your magic. Pure skill Sir....
Great job!
Thank you 😁
Really cool lock mate, seeing the insides also is very cool. Nice technique for picking👍🇦🇺😊
Thank you very much! 😊
Wow Keymaster what an awesome lock. & I must say that was a fantastic job picking it open, very well worked out, & a fantastic video. Have a great week. 👍
Thank you, it took me a lot of time to figure out how to pick such a lock, but it was worth it 😊 Habe a nice week too!
I have several of these locks I’ve made my tension wrenches and wires and have picked them open lots of tension required.
I’d disagree with starrylock regarding a jailbreak since anyone knows that they don’t allow prisoners to have anything metal and they do frequent searches.
Plus even if you escape from your cell, still have to get past several security doors, navigate past guards who are armed as most jails/detention centers are in police stations at least in the USA.
At most it’s escaping your cell, cell locks are big and monitored both by camera and physically.
I can appreciate seeing what a German cell lock looks like and the use of the Allen wrench and the lever lock wires.
I am curious to know who provided the lock? A current or former guard?
Or one of the people who install the locks in the cell blocks?
You are right but I think starrylock just wanted to make a joke. The Folger Adam is a US detention lock. I have no idea which locks are used German jails. I have to look into that 👍
Keymaster always something to research
Legend has it that an inmate designed this lock. There were a couple of instances I am aware of where inmates took the guts out of the lock without anyone noticing. The lock will still open normally with a key, but also with anything else. They are held in place by brake off bolts, but the bolts can be easily removed with a centre punch and hammer.
The inmates would not do this to escape, but a detention door opening into an unused space is the perfect place to hide a still. It was probably there for a long time until the plumber noticed that the lock could be opened without a key.
@@Keymaster how do you lock it back that's the real trick.lol
I forgot you said you picked this. What a genius, I really thought it would be a LOT HARDER. Very amazing pick my brother. Wow
Thanks! Its way harder than it seems to be in this video! I've spend hours and hours to learn to pick this lock! 😉
@@Keymaster I bet you did,you made it look so easy. Look I want to trade a brand new Squire 65 mm padlock in box for a nice lever lock pick set,that will open padlocks, and lever locks (Doors). And I want you to have first crack at it. Cost me $ 220 dollars on Amazon. But I need the tools more then the lock. If you are interested in this big ass lock let me know. If not ì understand. No worries. You'll always have first crack at anything I have.
Thank you for the offer, but I have some self made lever picks of low quality only. I don't have the tools to make good picks and that lock is worth much more. Sorry, I can't help you with lever picks. ☹
@@Keymaster thank you brother, like I said you'll have first pick on anything I am getting rid of. My brother
Do you have a website on where you got the picks from Andy Mac?
Always wanted to see one of these picked, I'm not planning Time Travel any time soon, If back in the Old West, nice to know it's not pick proof. Am sure I would run into some Back Shootin, High Gradin Jasper. Good Work

Thank you!
These locks are used on jail and prison doors today.
that was awesome great job!
Thank you! 😊
I need a 3d model of that thing minus the levers bc I could make those with flat spring steel
It should be noted that prison security is going to dictate that the tools necessary to pick this lock is going to be extremely difficult, if not impossible to obtain while in prison/jail. Allen keys for example are tightly controlled, you will not find them in jail. You may find them in prison though the guards will watch you like a hawk while using them... That and in jail these locks are going to be stuffed with garbage... inmates like to stuff it full of crap. This will make picking it even harder.
And even if you do manage to pick the lock, you got probably 10 other locks you gotta pick (and watched by CCTV) before you can even think about escaping.
And you pick one lock you're going to be spending the rest of your long sentence (if they didn't add anymore time on you) in the hole. If you are like probably 80-90% of the inmates in a county jail or detention center, you got about 2 or 3 years to do. Do your time, don't get 10+ years added for attempting to escape. If you're in for something serious, then you're likely going to be in lockdown in a county jail, and sent to max security where picking these locks is going to be the least of your worries.
Something to think about for any would be jailbreakers... (and no, not in the iphone sense).
These locks seems not used outside of the US though... in Taiwan I've only seen them use normal locks, not these big massive locks. Except they're literally impossible to pick. They may be small and the same types of locks used on properties out there, but we're talking 4 sided keys, keys that are round but have dimples on them, flat keys with varying keyways and dimples that match the lock, etc.. I've never seen those locks used in the states. One apartment complex I stayed at just has standard key locks (that the lockpicking lawyer can likely pick in seconds) with a master key to "rekey" them. In fact the way they rekey a lock is insert the new key into the lock, and press some secret button (or insert some master key) to rekey them. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to see how someone can easily defeat it.
Some jail locks are so old, that those doors used to serve food trays can be opened simply by kicking it very hard... seen it done.
Great lock. And pick. If you want to loan a lock for a lock some day let me no. Thanks👍
Thank you! Yes, we're can do a lock swap! 👍😎
Great method! I can't wait to get to prison!
In real life you the lock wouldn’t belaying flat like that. It will be on a door 🚪 very uncomfortable to do what you just did. Great video tho
Wer hat den größten spanner :D
😆🤣 Schön zu sehen, dass es dich noch gibt 😎
Keymaster klar gibts mich noch :-) nur ist die Zeit sehr knapp :D
Arbeite seit Monaten an nem Challenge lock fur Captain Hook.
Nebenbei Versuch ich mir eine pickrolle zu nähen und mache meine locks und picks kaputt (3ks zerlegen nervt)
Lg
@@stromi9032 Ah, schön zu hören 😎 bis auf die kaputten Picks und Locks...
Bro, trolling😂 that a lever lock that’s easy
