Just wanted to leave a comment saying thank you for putting all these videos out. I accidently locked the keys to this lock inside my storage trailer, so I ordered a cheap pick set from Amazon and thanks to you, I had the lock picked less than 10 minutes after Amazon delivered the set. "virtually impossible" my ass, I have never picked a lock in my life and I had this open in less time than it takes to smoke a cigarette 🤣
Funny how they look like they could resist 2 pounds of C4, but 2 metal sticks the size of my nails can render it useless. Very interesting as always, specially the gutting part.
Great job and very enjoyable as always. Did I say that I hate advertising? Lies most of the time in a way they can always find an excuse. "Virtually" does mean nothing if it not defined. They could have also stated: "100% Pick resistant for 99% of all people" ;-)
LOL... thanks. You are giving them too much credit. I prefer to think they were willfully untruthful or had a complete and reckless disregard for the truth.
@@lockpickinglawyer Could just be ignorance... based on what I've seen of their products, I'd be prepared to believe that they simply have no idea what constitutes a secure core.
Thanks. I've had some experience with the ridiculous transformation of product literature from the engineers to the marketing folks. It's a game a whisper down the lane with several layers of editors, and somehow "pick resistant" becomes "virtually impossible to pick." It's not an excuse, but I can see how things like this might happen.
Yes I agree, very helpful. I've been working on a 930 series for about 2 months. I'm now thinking I need a .015 set to get it out of the I'll get it someday bucket.
I left a comment on your 930 series a few minutes ago. I 2as ask8ng why that lock was nothing like the lock I just picked internally. And now I know why. Thanks for this vid. I couldn't find any that explained what I found internally inside the Master lock I found at my home.
I would like to see that lock with better bitting and use some homemade security pins like a homemade ASSA Christmas tree. And for drill resistance, steel pins on position 1. The keyway is not too bad, since a 0.015 pick was required to pick it open.
All the ProSeries locks I sell are pinned all six chambers, which avoids a larger problem than likelihood of advanced picking skills and ultra thin picks; and that is the prevelence of retail packaged products being shipped with repeating KA numbers over n over n over. When a client comes to a professional locksmith, every client gets their OWN differ, of a potential of over 50,000 bittings, once unusable bittings are eliminated . Of course, I offer the ProSeries, American, New Standard and PacLock with ASSA cylinders for higher risk situations for pick resistance and protection against unauthorized keys being produced.. I realize you and your friend Bill have a Jones over Master. I do not dispute their business practices are that of a vertical channel marketing company more so than that of a security products manufacturer. I am glad you have, albeit briefly; presented that Master sells both a premium and a knockoff of their own product. ALL the dept store models with the HEX shackle, are lower grade knockoffs, as well. On this one model, for some reason, they stayed with a round shackle. The ones with 930 ( 15K ) cylinder is from China, the 6230 is made in Milwaukee, and partially assembled in Mexico, then sent back to Milwaukee for completion.
I picked one of these up expecting spools, I didn’t know one would be serrated! Also found the .015 doesn’t quite fit but I don’t have one smaller. Yet.
Not a tricky lock,even for the uneducated.😩🤔🔐 Add another 3 minuets to the time and I think most new-intermediate pickers could crack it in that time. Great work as always sir 😘😘😍👍🔓😎🍻
I have been using a standard Master Lock and a 6 foot cable to lock up my bike for years, but after watching your video's I am astonished at how easy the standard Master lock is to pick. So, can you recommend a better pad lock? Good video's by the way.
Always enjoy your videos. You have some serious skills my friend. I have a problem with a master padlock 230lh. I was rekeying them and one of the four lock the pins came out. Mostly because I was curious and the other part I was not paying attention. So I have the brand lock all apart and can not get it back together. The pins are all back in the key works it nicely butting the lock back together is a BIG pain in the ----. Any hint, tricks or pictures on how to put it back together? Thanks
Your videos are very educational. Seems like someone selling locks and chains would pay you to put links to them in your video... Do you have a lock that you recommend in the $25 and under price range that will outperform the 6230? I am interested in 4 to 8 pieces keyed alike. Thanks.
Very good, I have a Master lock almost identicle to yours, but with a long shackle. I found it on the street. I think it is older than the one in your video. I took it to a locksmith and he said it would cost more than a new lock to open it-he gave me no help, but he is in the business to make a profit not to give his skill away for free. What pick tools/kit do I need to attempt to open this lock?
I just wanna know has Master ever reached out to you on how to make a better lock. Kinda seems like they need you on their team. Like a new age Frank Abagnale, Jr.
5:25 Pin 1 & 3 appear different lengths however the bitting appears the same. Pin 3 & 5 appear the same length however drastically different bitting. Pin 2 is short where I'd expect it to be longer to match the bitting?
Would it really cost Master Lock so much to at least fill that 6th chamber jeez. Maybe a core from a Master safety lockout would fit in that lock. Nice video as always :-)
Thanks. The whole 5 pins in a 6 pin core thing really annoys me. More than one lock company does this, then they charge more for the 6 pin version without the capital investment needed to make two different cores, actuators, etc... It's a bit silly, but that's the economic model.
Master makes M1 keyway cores for the Pro-Series locks, AND they also all come drilled 6 pin ... even though the standard is only 4 pin ... and they do NOT even make the M1 keyway in 6 pin.
Hi I ask you a question concerning the master lock pad lock model 230LH. I see you have responded to everyone before and after me and would like to know why? I was really hoping to get some feed back from you because I trust your skill set. Maybe it is just to basic for you. But thanks anyway.
Holy crap, I just picked my 6230, my first lock after playing with the see through "practice" lock that came with my pick set. It took about five minutes, and I know I couldn't have done it without watching your videos. There were obvious spool pins that produced counter rotation, and another that just clicked that I assume was serrated. Hardly impossible indeed, my first pick job ever!!! After closing the lock the key wouldn't go back until after a lot of fooling with the key opening. What did I do wrong?
When you close the lock the key way turns backwards because there’s no retainer pin but don’t worry it’s not broken take a tension wrench and turn it back to normal position
@@jeseniahernandez8795 Thank you! Funny thing, since opening this lock I've had just as much trouble opening much easier locks. Must have been beginners luck.
Hi Harry Deeper spools for more counter rotation with much thinner ends, a more paracentric keyway, 6 pins, closer tolerances, or maybe just closer tolerances with bevelled drivers and tapered key pins - that should do. Virtually pick proof? ... now that IS a challenge, and you rose to it well - as usual. Regards, Brian.
I'm really starting to wonder whether the lock companies really believe their marketing load. I've been looking at lock warranties recently (because I really am that big of a nerd), and companies are offering thousands of dollars in anti-theft protection on really mediocre locks.
As soon as I saw "Virtually Pickproof" in your title, I knew this would be amusing... Nice video as always, other then the serrated pin, looks just like my 930 (mine is all spools). Ever open a 575? Mine is still getting the best of me.
Well I must have a much older version. Can someone possibly let me know why the lock I gutted had 2 little discs on top of the key pins. I found a couple of these locks in the house i moved to with no keys. I just got into picking not to long ago and when I gutted one of the locks I noticed some pretty big differences when compared to other master locks that are rated 10 in the security scale. 1 difference was that there were actual security pins in this lock. It had 3 spools and two serrated's. It also had 2 discs each on top if each key pin. Like I said. Iv3 never seen anything like that before, especially on a master lock. I thought maybe it was a custom lock, but the pins machine work and patina match.
The discs you describe sound like "master wafers", used when building a lock to take multiple keys as part of a master keying system. I guess whoever rebuilt it for the master keying system decided to put some security pins in while they were at it.
Out of curiosity, what was that bottom plate made out of? It seemed quite flimsy, how hard would it me to just jam something in the keyway and just bend/shear the bottom plate off?

I have a 930/6230 that I do not have a key for and of course it is locked. Would you be interested in opening it for me ? If possible making key's / upgrading parts
So why does LPL refer to the pins as 'him', could they not also be female? 😊 Just a thought. I'd say if I had to choose, that a lock is definitely male. (With the exception of some Master locks).

Masterlock: "Virtually Pickproof" LockPickingLawyer: I better gut that, as well as pick it, otherwise I'll be earning nothing from the CZcams royalties.
Thanks. I suspect someone at master lock watches, but they don't really care... because most consumers don't know enough to care. With luck, channels like mine will help change that.
I saw this lock on a true crime documentary and immediately checked your channel to see if you had done a video on it. Lol at the police cutting through a pathetic little master lock that took you seconds to pick.
i have the same exact lock. i wanted to make sure that it was a good fit for a locker at work... and the only way to prove that, was to pick it. I PICKED IT IN LESS THAN 20 SECONDS! DEFINITELY NOT A "PICKPROOF" LOCK! And with that, i will NOT be using this lock for work or in any case for that matter.
I mean, as someone who has literally just got started and can't pick a Masterlock No. 1 consistently yet, I'm sure that would give me a LOT of trouble. But that's certainly not what I think "virtually un______able" should ever mean, right? It's like saying a math problem is unsolvable because a person who just learned basic algebra can't handle entry level calculus.
look at the key wow did they even bother to cut the key i think i only saw one low all the rest were high could u see the keys when u bought it i if i saw that key i would not of even bothered to buy it to easy to open u need lots of high and low cuts to keep things more interesting
Depends on what you are locking up. You can spend well over $1,000 on a lock and $500 on a chain, but why do that to lock up a bicycle worth $250? That said, one of my favorite locks within a more practical price range is the Abloy 362. That is a very well-built lock that offers exceptional levels of pick resistance.
The picker has a nearly endless amount of time to practice on a particular lock before he makes it look so easy on his videos. I wonder how he would do with a lock with which he was unfamiliar.
Yeah, Im sure youd just happen to have the right pick and the rubber arms to get into the perfect position to pick this, hanging on a hasp with people walking by wondering what you're doing. Medeco locks are useless junk too, because tons of people can pick them on a table. Security is practices, not products. The moment you delegate your security to *any* lock, you've failed.
Hey, LPL.... I don't know what kind of lawyer you are, but you should sue Masterlock for grossly misrepresenting thier products. What better person to take up a law suit against such an egregious company?

So as a lawyer, does throwing the word "virtually" in there absolve Master of all liability?

No one would buy the expensive locks if the more basic locks worked just as well though.

You would think by now that the Master lock company would hire this guy
I looked away for a few seconds to reply to a text and you had the lock open and were already working on taking the core out when I looked back.

Are there locks that are not costly that once there on the room door clasp won't be opened easily can you possibly recommend 2-3 kinds please.?
Looks like all the drivers are the same length. Would it help if they were varied lengths?
Is there a significance to being a round body? How are they different from a rectangular body?
i was surprised to see spools. doesn't look like the serations came into play with the tall key pin.
That a reoccurring problem in commercial locks. They do not pair drivers to bitting, and often lose a fair bit of pick resistance as a result.

It's like saying a math problem is unsolvable because a person who just learned basic algebra can't handle entry level calculus.
Labeling a mere 5 pin core as pick resistant is like labeling a Yugo as luxury.
'Virtually impossible' took you 40 seconds to pick it. I guess 45 seconds would qualify it as being 'impossible to pick'?
look at the key wow did they even bother to cut the key i think i only saw one low all the rest were high could u see the keys when u bought it i if i saw that key i would not of even bothered to buy it to easy to open u need lots of high and low cuts to keep things more interesting
Yup, not so hot. But to be honest, it really doesn't matter much. With Master keyways and MACS, bitting should never be an issue opening these.
so whats your all time most secure lock you'd recommend?
Depends on what you are locking up. You can spend well over $1,000 on a lock and $500 on a chain, but why do that to lock up a bicycle worth $250? That said, one of my favorite locks within a more practical price range is the Abloy 362. That is a very well-built lock that offers exceptional levels of pick resistance.
awesome thanks for the response =)
do you have a video on that padlock?
Emmanuel Mata No. I can't open it (non destructively).
beautiful! thank you. If you can't open it no one can lol
Also virtually impossible to open with an Allen wrench.
Difference between virtual and reality.
If I were the CEO of Master Locks I'd put this guy on the payroll to shut him up hahaha
lol virtually unpickable. sure. I picked one open today on my lunch break in about 2 minutes for a locksmith.
LOL. That would be a great slogan "Doing the impossible on my lunch break"!
I suppose “pic” is the relative term...
Ha virtually pickproof what was that 18 seconds
The picker has a nearly endless amount of time to practice on a particular lock before he makes it look so easy on his videos. I wonder how he would do with a lock with which he was unfamiliar.
Check out some of his more recent videos where he opens a lock from a viewer and picks it in real time.
Padlock is being pinned down.
Virtually, conceptually impossible to pick just not physically 😅
Yeah, Im sure youd just happen to have the right pick and the rubber arms to get into the perfect position to pick this, hanging on a hasp with people walking by wondering what you're doing.
Medeco locks are useless junk too, because tons of people can pick them on a table.
Security is practices, not products. The moment you delegate your security to *any* lock, you've failed.
Hey, LPL.... I don't know what kind of lawyer you are, but you should sue Masterlock for grossly misrepresenting thier products. What better person to take up a law suit against such an egregious company?
I’m thinking engineer at master lock has palsy so just about ANY lock is almost impossible.
