  • Yes, after reviewing this video I realized that I stumbled over a few words or repeated myself unnecessarily, I decided to go ahead and post it because of how difficult it would be to re-shoot.
    If you have any questions about repinning and rekeying, just ask in the comments.

    Thank you so much. You saved my job. I was taking out the ignition cylinder in a 1940 Lincoln and the tumbler cover popped off and all the pins and springs flew everywhere.

      Thank you. Every so often I remember things that mystified me when I started out and I try to come up with tutorials. If there are any topics you can think of, let me know and I will see what I can do.

    should locks be oiled? i have a practice "cut" open lock that i can see the pins with and its made from copper that i am having great difficulty with and it squeaks! and is rigid and difficult to move. certainly their is a special oil for locks that does not contain oil but is a graphite substance. or will the oil make the lock more difficult to pick? have you ever done a video on oiling a lock?

    Good video. Didn't know there are different top pin sizes. Top pin, bottom pin but what is a master pin?

    can you tell me what kit you are using that has all the pins and where to buy?

    • @Nite0wl
      @Nite0wl  Před 3 lety

      That is LAB's Mini DUR-X kit for Sargent (LMDSGT). You can find it from many locksmith suppliers and online retailers.

    I understand the thought process behind the first set of pins he installed but with regards to the driver pins it seems subjective. Could anyone please explain in more detail to a newbie?

    • @Nite0wl
      @Nite0wl  Před 6 lety

      Sargent uses a 'graduated driver' scheme, as the key pin gets longer the driver pin gets shorter. There are two reasons for this:
      1- With very short key pins when no key is inserted a driver pin may not be long enough to block the shear line, this leaves the spring as the only thing which blocks the shear line which will damage the spring and lock.
      2- With very long key pins a driver pin that is too long may crush the spring or even prevent the key pin from being able to clear the keyway when inserting a key, this damages the springs and can prevent the lock from working.
      If you can, take a look at the Color Passport charts from one of LAB's universal pin kits, it shows what length driver pins are required for different key pins.

    I have forgotten the code to unlock a keyless Lockwood ordinary padlock. I can't open it to reuse it. That's my predicament

    I think you have poor pinning habits repinning over your tray of pins is a good way to create extra clean up work for you and to develop bad habits for the new student. Cross-contamination of pins should be avoided at all cost. Time wasted is money lost for bad habits. Always develop good working habits even if it is just a training video.
