Very few people could pick it 4 times in under 10 minutes to open. There may not be anyone in all of Peru capable of doing that. Even 5 minutes is a long time to be picking.
@@Mernom All night latches are like that. Here in the UK night latches are common. My front door has one and they have a switch on the inside that disengages the front side of the lock from the inside and when the switch is on the lever in the inside for opening the door is locked in place and so is the deadbolt to prevent the door opening or closing whilst in this position to prevent people locking themselves out because someone would need to be inside to turn the switch on whilst the door is closed. Another benefit to nightlatches is when you turn the lever THEN engage the switch deadbolt stays retracted so if you are in a scenario where you need the door opened but dont want to keep pulling out your keys then it is useful like that too. These locks are common on almost all wooden doors here in the UK and most of the doors not using these types of locks are plastic and composite type doors. Although night latches in the UK are common they are nothing like this. In the UK most night latches only require a 1/4 turn up to 12/ to retract the bolt from the outside but on my front door we have TWO locks and when we are not going to be home for a considerable period of time we use the 2nd lock too because that one is just a deadbolt with no spring so it doesn't spring open and when the deadbolt is out can only be put inside with the key. That 2nd lock is just an additional security for when no one is home we also have a door chain on the inside for extra security
"Blindada" means "armored" in Peru, and these locks are called "chapas" and are extremely common and notoriously difficult to operate because of the different motions of the key. You're much more likely to get a forceful entry or armed entry than a lock picker in Peru.
Makes sense that threatening the lock owner is easier than picking the lock... I prefer security through obscurity. Don't show your cards if you can help it...
Statistically speaking, you're more likely to get a forceful entry in the US too, either raw "kick the door down" or the slightly sneakier "convince the homeowner to come to the door and shove a gun in their face".

@@guilhermebrune that makes more sense lol I was reading it literally and where I'm from, that word refers to being hit or hitting. Latin America has a lot of regional words.
Similar to Japan. There was a need to beef up security and pick resistance so Miwa developed the U9 lock with a 9 lever mechanism (similar to the British Ingersoll 10 lever mechanism). There locks are used everywhere in Japan but do not seem to be exported since they apparently infringe some overseas patents. LPL does not seem to have done a video picking the U9 but he would probably reckon it is a pretty good lock.
It is absolutely ridiculous how fast, and easy he picks locks. Crazy!!! So much fun to watch. My daughter picked her first padlock a couple of weeks ago. The smile on her face! She felt like a spy😂
I remember 'picking' my first combination lock as a kid, listened to a change in the clicks under tension 'like in the movies' I felt like such a ninja hahaha :)
I would definitely put this in the "more secure" category, especially for Peru. I'm sitting in Arequipa right now, surrounded by these types of locks. I already did a check and every key I've come across is made up of 5 pins, so to see 7 would be unusual, in my limited experience.
Can confirm they're big in Peru for front doors. They're paired with big metal doors or metal frames with glass paneling, if you want to spice it up a little
My brother has lived in Peru for a couple decades. The mindset there is "When and How Often" will your house be broken into, not "if" it will be broken into. Locks like the above, bars on windows, broken glass on walls. All surely help and are better than nothing, but your house is likely to broken into at some point.
I live somewhere else in the world where house breaking is not as common, yet we STILL have bars in the lower floor windows, amored doors, and overengineered secure deadbolts everywhere. It just makes sense.
I was waiting for this day to happen, when you review one of the Peruvian locks or padlocks. Yes, we have lots of these here, usually the outer frame has a metal bar bolted from the insides to prevent crowbars and stuff. Usually there is a metal plaque preventing the unscrewing of the bolt mechanism.
In continental Europe (I am in UK) double-lock deadbolts used to be common, and I know they still are in Spain. Then the crappy snappable Euro lock was introduced. I wish we had these double/quad deadlocks. (A friend lives in Edinburgh New Town, and his grand house has a lock to his 3" thick outer front door with a cathedral key about 8" long. It puts burglars off, but his trouser pockets get holed rapidly).
As Spaniard, I confirm this kind of deadbolts are the most common lock, mostly in pre-00s residential buildings. New construction usually uses Euro locks now.
@@chemapoblador8368 Can you still buy the double-lock deadlocks? If so, next time I'm in Spain (no - I do not search for fish and chips, British beer, and turn lobster-red from sunbathing, although I was once told off in Barcelona for pronouncing cerveza in the Castilian fashion!) I'll buy some.
@@frogandspanner Buy a FAC deadbolt. They are quite good. So good that most burglars don't even bother with them. And next time someone in Barcelona gives you trouble over the accent when ordering a beer, you can troll them (disclaimer: this does not represent my views on beer nor politics, just a way to troll someone who cares too much about either as to harass a tourist over either) with a friendly reminder of WHERE the beer is made! (spoiler: the three most popular brands of beer in all of Spain, Barcelona included, are made two in Madrid and one in Seville) 😀
Well now … As a residential door installer for over 35 years in North America ( mainly on the east coast of Pa., NJ. & DEL .,,I’ve installed literally thousands of entry doors and their lock sets …. Both high end pricey products and the most “ BO-BO” of box store crap …. With that said .. This looks to be one of the more secure designs and construction.. Although.. Because “ designer looks and styles “ are part of the curb appeal for most front doors … it’s questionable about how often someone would buy this even if it’s actually available in the U.S. . So I hearken back to what I learned back in 1986 when I was 19 just learning from my Italian teacher contractor guy “ Capo Mastro”. in His broken English… “ eh Nick …. LOCKS ARE FOR HONEST PEOPLE “ 👌🏼
My thinking is re-target it from residential to commercial (non-customer-facing, like back doors), light industrial (automotive garages), and agricultural; places where looks are not a priority, but 'took the LPL a minute to pick once & needs to be picked four times,' 'the doorframe will give way before the lock does,' and 'actually not very expensive' would be the key selling points.
Good design it combats the most likely way of deafeating a lock, which is brute force . No one picking a lock to get in a house they will pry the door or kick it in fast and easy.
I stayed in Ecuador for a month and immediately noticed the locks there are way more substantial than what we are used to in the US. The place we stayed at actually had deadbolts at the top and bottom of the doorway. And even the hinge side of the doorway had bolts that would mesh with the frame when it was closed. So it was bolted all the way around which would make it very difficult to beach with brute force. And the lock couldn't be operated at all without the key even from the inside.
I feel proud watching you review a Peruvian lock. I’ve been following your channel for years. And yes, Cantol is one of the best lock companies here. By the way, the word Cantol is pronounced something like ‘can’t’ (as in ‘cannot’) and ‘all.’ Thank you very much, sir!
Just on pure time math, this lock is about 60 times better in pick resistance than the usual locks we see on this channel, (4 sec vs 60*4 sec) Amazing lock, I want one
The amount of praise here is rarely seen on any other products LPL reviews. If this lock really sells for only $25, this may be the best value lock ever seen on this channel!
Refreshingly proper and novel concept, rarely do I see something new and feel like "I'd recommend that" immediately. Major props to whoever came up with this design!
I was looking to replace our Yale night latch. Was originally looking for BS4 Maximum Security Nightlatch but now I'm on the lookout for this Peruvian lock.
As one who frequently travels to Peru, my spouse is Peruvian, these and similar brands are common there. We even have the mounting plate welded to a metal door for one of our doors. The number of rods that the lock has depends on the model of the lock. Some of the locks use your typical beveled tang like we commonly have in our regular door lock here in the USA, this allows for quick entry/exit, three more turns and the other rods extend or retract. I recommend getting lots of spare keys made there, because getting duplicates here will be a challenge. Forte is a major competing brand in Peru.
In all my years watching this channel I'd have to say this is definitely one of the top-10 best "off the shelf right out of the box" home deadbolts I've ever watched you demonstrate. That's fairly hard to acquire these days! Usually you'd spend a lot of time modifying off the shelf deadbolt solutions to get about half as much security.. And I may try to acquire one these myself as my own front door has a single hole for a deadbolt (no knob) and the idea behind that according to my landlord is make sure 1) you can't lock yourself out unless you lost your key while out and 2) prevents you from having an unattended unlocked door (an idea I actually now support)
The switch is used as a second lock. The door can be lock closed, or even locked "open." If you're carrying your groceries into the house, you wouldn't want the door to close and have to unlock it every time. If it's locked open, you can just push the door without having to use the key. Yes, the switch on the side makes the keyway unusable. The switch is essentially a deadbolt for the door plunger
Surface mount locks were popular in Poland some 20 years ago. Only we usually didn't have a lock on the inside. Just a knob (or a thumbscrew or whatever you call it)
These are very common across a lot of South America. They're all over Mexico, and I saw a lot of them in Argentina and Peru. I've been to those three places a lot, but haven't travelled much in S. America otherwise, though I always assumed this is the standard. I definitely have a childhood sensory memory of pulling the latch and like how spring loaded it felt.
@@rafael_lana ya ya, Im Mexican, but dont think we need to discuss the identity politics of North, Central, and South America in a comment on a video about locks. Can we at least agree that Argentina is actually Europe? lol
@@telemundie dude, politics are subject to discussion, but geography is not. Mexico, Canada, the U.S.A, and also hilariously the U.K. (by virtue of Bermude), Denmark (by virtue of Groenland) and France (by virtue of Saint Pierre and Miquelon) *ARE* in North America.
I had a couple of 14 pin dimple locks a few years ago 2 rows of 6 and 2 angled pin various spools. That was my baptism to lock sport . Thank you for years of hints and tips. I wish I still had said locks would have love to see you pick one . I learned because I took one apart to see how it worked. All the best
1.5 minutes for LPL to pick it 1/4 times... Honestly a pretty solid lock. As LPL said, it's really nice seeing one that hard latches into the bolt, so it can't just be wedged open.
I'd like to see if you could get it open with that special switch flipped. Does that render picking entirely useless? Or is there some piece of a milk jug trick to get it to reengage?
No, loiding the lock does not work... the latch directly locks into a gap in the sliding lock plate, and only disengaging that latch allows the center bar to retract. Since about half the doors here are steel or steel faced, it requires a person drilling a hole through the door and a turning tool of some sort to open if accidentally engaged. Thankfully it does not engage from the outside, and the door cannot close if it is engaged while open, so we only have to do this when the person inside is unresponsive.
I wish you had disassembled it to see what it did have inside. Thanks for sharing this great system. Searching for this one I found out there are other series, the 800, 900, and 1000
Considering most locks are generally to prevent some random dude who thought he found a good opportunity (woe is you if an experienced picker decides to target your house), this is a lock I'd probably buy

I was reading it literally and where I'm from, that word refers to being hit or hitting. Latin America has a lot of regional words.
My dad used to sell this locks here in Costa Rica, thank you for the flashback, miss my old man
I like that lock... a lot! Seems Peru has/had some serious crime issues and someone rose to the challenge of protecting folks. Nice!
Violent crime is pretty common in Peru. I didn’t see home invasion/burglary on the list, but if this type of lick is common then it could be.
crappy locks in the US might mean there's no crime over there... oh wait...
@@delguedaNah.. we just have lazy thieves.
Similar to Japan. There was a need to beef up security and pick resistance so Miwa developed the U9 lock with a 9 lever mechanism (similar to the British Ingersoll 10 lever mechanism). There locks are used everywhere in Japan but do not seem to be exported since they apparently infringe some overseas patents. LPL does not seem to have done a video picking the U9 but he would probably reckon it is a pretty good lock.
Yeah, so now they just tug your whole window frame out of the wall with a car instead..
US locks: 4 pins. Can be opened with a Comb / Wave Rake / Magnet.
Peruvian Lock: 7 pins. Must be single-pin picked 4 times.
"I love the way..." Is the highest of praise I've heard from LPL
This seems like one of the best consumer-grade door locks ever featured on this channel.
It is absolutely ridiculous how fast, and easy he picks locks. Crazy!!! So much fun to watch. My daughter picked her first padlock a couple of weeks ago. The smile on her face! She felt like a spy😂
I remember 'picking' my first combination lock as a kid, listened to a change in the clicks under tension 'like in the movies' I felt like such a ninja hahaha :)
Peruvian exports just increased!
I would definitely put this in the "more secure" category, especially for Peru. I'm sitting in Arequipa right now, surrounded by these types of locks. I already did a check and every key I've come across is made up of 5 pins, so to see 7 would be unusual, in my limited experience.
if LPL has to work at it, you know it's a worthy opponent.
I was just about to finally order “The Covert Companion” set from LPL, but now that money is getting spent on a package I’m ordering from Peru.
Respect from LPL is the highest endorsement a lock can get in my opinion. Vamo Peru!
Can confirm they're big in Peru for front doors. They're paired with big metal doors or metal frames with glass paneling, if you want to spice it up a little
Meanwhile, all I could think is that a core puller would easily work on it.
@@arthurmoore9488 how are you going to open such advanced devices in developing countries?
Now thats a heckin lock
High praise from LPL
This is the most glowing review I think I've ever seen from LPL!
This is the most secure lock I've ever seen on this channel, and I am now importing all of my locks from Peru.
My brother has lived in Peru for a couple decades. The mindset there is "When and How Often" will your house be broken into, not "if" it will be broken into. Locks like the above, bars on windows, broken glass on walls. All surely help and are better than nothing, but your house is likely to broken into at some point.
I live somewhere else in the world where house breaking is not as common, yet we STILL have bars in the lower floor windows, amored doors, and overengineered secure deadbolts everywhere. It just makes sense.
That looks like a good product. I have much respect for the designer and manufacturer.
This is why im a proud Peruvian
i mean... senorita laura is peruvian, so lets say youre even
Wanna start a side hustle selling locks to the US?
because of THIS? not the rich culture, food, whatever? 🤣
unfortunately the food would be bad by the time it got to me, if it made it through customs at all@@delgueda
WoW, that is a beast of a lock.
Love these locks that have a bit of background.
I was waiting for this day to happen, when you review one of the Peruvian locks or padlocks. Yes, we have lots of these here, usually the outer frame has a metal bar bolted from the insides to prevent crowbars and stuff. Usually there is a metal plaque preventing the unscrewing of the bolt mechanism.
In continental Europe (I am in UK) double-lock deadbolts used to be common, and I know they still are in Spain.
Then the crappy snappable Euro lock was introduced.
I wish we had these double/quad deadlocks.
(A friend lives in Edinburgh New Town, and his grand house has a lock to his 3" thick outer front door with a cathedral key about 8" long. It puts burglars off, but his trouser pockets get holed rapidly).
As Spaniard, I confirm this kind of deadbolts are the most common lock, mostly in pre-00s residential buildings. New construction usually uses Euro locks now.
@@chemapoblador8368 Can you still buy the double-lock deadlocks? If so, next time I'm in Spain (no - I do not search for fish and chips, British beer, and turn lobster-red from sunbathing, although I was once told off in Barcelona for pronouncing cerveza in the Castilian fashion!) I'll buy some.
@@frogandspanner Yes! Brands like Azbe or Tesa still manufacture them for what I see
@@chemapoblador8368 Thanks!
@@frogandspanner Buy a FAC deadbolt. They are quite good. So good that most burglars don't even bother with them. And next time someone in Barcelona gives you trouble over the accent when ordering a beer, you can troll them (disclaimer: this does not represent my views on beer nor politics, just a way to troll someone who cares too much about either as to harass a tourist over either) with a friendly reminder of WHERE the beer is made! (spoiler: the three most popular brands of beer in all of Spain, Barcelona included, are made two in Madrid and one in Seville) 😀
Ladies and gentlemen, we may have found the single best lock in the world
Honestly, it has been a long time since I have seen a lock this strong on this channel. Nice!
Now THAT is a damn good lock
Well now …
As a residential door installer for over 35 years in North America ( mainly on the east coast of Pa., NJ. & DEL .,,I’ve installed literally thousands of entry doors and their lock sets ….
Both high end pricey products and the most “ BO-BO” of box store crap ….
With that said ..
This looks to be one of the more secure designs and construction..
Although..
Because “ designer looks and styles “ are part of the curb appeal for most front doors … it’s questionable about how often someone would buy this even if it’s actually available in the U.S. .
So I hearken back to what I learned back in 1986 when I was 19 just learning from my Italian teacher contractor guy “ Capo Mastro”. in His broken English…
“ eh Nick ….
LOCKS ARE FOR HONEST PEOPLE “ 👌🏼
My thinking is re-target it from residential to commercial (non-customer-facing, like back doors), light industrial (automotive garages), and agricultural; places where looks are not a priority, but 'took the LPL a minute to pick once & needs to be picked four times,' 'the doorframe will give way before the lock does,' and 'actually not very expensive' would be the key selling points.
Good design it combats the most likely way of deafeating a lock, which is brute force . No one picking a lock to get in a house they will pry the door or kick it in fast and easy.
From the looks of it, that lock is a must buy.
Can’t wait for the Master Lock version of this: BlindGranma Flaccid 500
with a 7 rubber pin lock, for easy access ;-)
as a peruvian i felt a little bit of pride when he said "no bad" LOL. as any country in latin america, these are the locks that you shouldnt cheap out
He actually used the word "Love". This is probably one of the better locks on earth.
Wow, that's impressive
Clearly this is one of the best locks we've seen in a while.
I stayed in Ecuador for a month and immediately noticed the locks there are way more substantial than what we are used to in the US. The place we stayed at actually had deadbolts at the top and bottom of the doorway. And even the hinge side of the doorway had bolts that would mesh with the frame when it was closed. So it was bolted all the way around which would make it very difficult to beach with brute force. And the lock couldn't be operated at all without the key even from the inside.
this is the first lock i ever saw you do that i'm still convinced would be good security after you are done talking about it
Wow finally after all these years... A good one!
Best lock I've seen in a long time.
4min video its a rare occurrence! 🤣🤣
I liked the lock very much, would pick this for my house.
Definitely lots of great security thinking went into this design. First time in a while I've seen the LPL not blow through a opening in 15 seconds.
Besides good locks, Peru has amazing food.
That's not all Peru has that's amazing.
This is a pretty slick lock. I enjoy seeing products where profit was not the primary reason for it to exist.
I feel proud watching you review a Peruvian lock. I’ve been following your channel for years. And yes, Cantol is one of the best lock companies here. By the way, the word Cantol is pronounced something like ‘can’t’ (as in ‘cannot’) and ‘all.’ Thank you very much, sir!
Perú mentioned RAHHH 🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪
Just on pure time math, this lock is about 60 times better in pick resistance than the usual locks we see on this channel, (4 sec vs 60*4 sec)
Amazing lock, I want one
This is very high praise and I want this lock for my stuff. Heck, if I had a van full of tools, this is the box, ya ask me.
Wow. No "Okay folks" mic drop with this one.
This offered a surprising amount of resistance
I think this is one of the better locks I've seen on this channel!
I'd say this is definitely one of the better locks we've seen here 👀
That is a beefy lock.
Great video today!
Nice to see a tough to break into locking system.
The amount of praise here is rarely seen on any other products LPL reviews. If this lock really sells for only $25, this may be the best value lock ever seen on this channel!
Refreshingly proper and novel concept, rarely do I see something new and feel like "I'd recommend that" immediately. Major props to whoever came up with this design!
Great video once again LPL!! This lock appears to be made better then some others you had on here! Interesting stuff!
I was looking to replace our Yale night latch.
Was originally looking for BS4 Maximum Security Nightlatch but now I'm on the lookout for this Peruvian lock.
As one who frequently travels to Peru, my spouse is Peruvian, these and similar brands are common there. We even have the mounting plate welded to a metal door for one of our doors. The number of rods that the lock has depends on the model of the lock. Some of the locks use your typical beveled tang like we commonly have in our regular door lock here in the USA, this allows for quick entry/exit, three more turns and the other rods extend or retract.
I recommend getting lots of spare keys made there, because getting duplicates here will be a challenge.
Forte is a major competing brand in Peru.
In all my years watching this channel I'd have to say this is definitely one of the top-10 best "off the shelf right out of the box" home deadbolts I've ever watched you demonstrate. That's fairly hard to acquire these days! Usually you'd spend a lot of time modifying off the shelf deadbolt solutions to get about half as much security.. And I may try to acquire one these myself as my own front door has a single hole for a deadbolt (no knob) and the idea behind that according to my landlord is make sure 1) you can't lock yourself out unless you lost your key while out and 2) prevents you from having an unattended unlocked door (an idea I actually now support)
finally , after years of watchig these video finally for the first time i see a familiar lock type
I'd love to see more on this lock! Maybe install it on a mock up and show the flipper. Does the switch on the inside make entry impossible?
I have a similar lock on the warehouse where I work, I completely blocks it, it would only open by disengaging the switch or by destructive means
The switch is used as a second lock.
The door can be lock closed, or even locked "open."
If you're carrying your groceries into the house, you wouldn't want the door to close and have to unlock it every time. If it's locked open, you can just push the door without having to use the key.
Yes, the switch on the side makes the keyway unusable. The switch is essentially a deadbolt for the door plunger
@@MrPibATF Very cool. Thank you for that information. A burglar would have to wait for the "groceries" scenario to beat the lock, presumably.
He shows that it prevents the latch from moving at 1:33
This is one tough lock. Kudos to Cantol for taking door security seriously.
Wow, this is the longest I have seen LPL work on a lock, and giving the highest praise! :D
Wow a lock set that slowed the LPL a bit. The four turn is definitely something I've only seen a on high security doors.
Surface mount locks were popular in Poland some 20 years ago. Only we usually didn't have a lock on the inside. Just a knob (or a thumbscrew or whatever you call it)
Thank you sir, getting into the field, and this lock was something completely different.
WELL DONE
This is the best cylinder door lock i’ve seen on this channel i Think.
These are very common across a lot of South America. They're all over Mexico, and I saw a lot of them in Argentina and Peru. I've been to those three places a lot, but haven't travelled much in S. America otherwise, though I always assumed this is the standard. I definitely have a childhood sensory memory of pulling the latch and like how spring loaded it felt.
All over Brazil as well can confirm. Btw Mexico is North America 😂
@@rafael_lana ya ya, Im Mexican, but dont think we need to discuss the identity politics of North, Central, and South America in a comment on a video about locks. Can we at least agree that Argentina is actually Europe? lol
@@telemundie dude, politics are subject to discussion, but geography is not. Mexico, Canada, the U.S.A, and also hilariously the U.K. (by virtue of Bermude), Denmark (by virtue of Groenland) and France (by virtue of Saint Pierre and Miquelon) *ARE* in North America.
Blindada is Spanish for armored or plated. Really cool to see how similarly these companies name their products.
I had a couple of 14 pin dimple locks a few years ago 2 rows of 6 and 2 angled pin various spools. That was my baptism to lock sport . Thank you for years of hints and tips. I wish I still had said locks would have love to see you pick one . I learned because I took one apart to see how it worked. All the best
1.5 minutes for LPL to pick it 1/4 times... Honestly a pretty solid lock. As LPL said, it's really nice seeing one that hard latches into the bolt, so it can't just be wedged open.
I'd like to see if you could get it open with that special switch flipped. Does that render picking entirely useless? Or is there some piece of a milk jug trick to get it to reengage?
No, loiding the lock does not work... the latch directly locks into a gap in the sliding lock plate, and only disengaging that latch allows the center bar to retract. Since about half the doors here are steel or steel faced, it requires a person drilling a hole through the door and a turning tool of some sort to open if accidentally engaged. Thankfully it does not engage from the outside, and the door cannot close if it is engaged while open, so we only have to do this when the person inside is unresponsive.
Oh yeah, this thing is everywhere in Peru lol
@DL-nn1ws - So, clearly not new.
@@wickedcabinboy well, depends on when you last had people break into your house lmao
@@DL-nn1ws - 68 times around the sun. Never had my house broken into.
I wish you had disassembled it to see what it did have inside. Thanks for sharing this great system. Searching for this one I found out there are other series, the 800, 900, and 1000
If any lock designers should be opening champagne today, it is these Peruvian company.
Well done
[LPL has opened every lock I've ever watched a video] My brain: "Oh I wonder if he can open THIS one?...." :P
@archi-dr5te - Then you haven't seen his Bowley lock video.
Hold my beer!@@wickedcabinboy
Considering most locks are generally to prevent some random dude who thought he found a good opportunity (woe is you if an experienced picker decides to target your house), this is a lock I'd probably buy
Thank you LPL, very cool
Most positive review I’ve seen in a long time
