      Yes, I can confirm that this lock is for sure one of the most common locks in Switzerland. With no surprise though, since they are a swiss lock mechanism with good reputation and not crazy expensive.

      Usually when a lock puts up a "fight" for him, he makes one or two drops, or encounter multiple false sets, so I was pretty surprised that he didn't run into any issues even once. Let alone on the raking bit.
      Nevertheless, a complex, precision lock like this will certainly put up quite the fight for most skilled lockpickers.

      Sky173 the tricky bit of the reassembly, the only one that really matters that you dropped the lot, is when you put the key in the cylinder and then put all the keypins in it in such a way that they’re all at the shearline when the key is inserted. Apart from that, reassembly is the same as normal.

    Hey LPL,
    A few years ago i bought my first lock picking set and locks because you made me interested in lock picking. I only had a little bit of time to play around with it however before i got in to an accident. This accident left one of my arms to be permanently paralyzed. I'm still interested in picking locks and have seen a few video's of people picking with one hand. I was wondering, if you're in for a challenge, if you could show the possibilities when picking one handed and hopefully give me the motivation to get some good picks, locks and a vice.

    Impressive, please try the kaba star.... Its pins are arrayed radiantly in 8 rows... I'm seeing this KABA 20 has only 4 rows, two of which have only one pin there, that's why you're luck with the manipulation

  • @tomduke558
    @tomduke558 Před 4 lety +8

    You're right this is unusual as only 12 pin holes drilled in the core.... Only possible reason: this cylinder probably is at the lowest tier of a master key system... so it won't deploy all the 20 pin holes on the core. Compared to the regular serrated flat key system(as widely used in the us), kaba's master keys have always one shear line, while the flat keys have multiple shear lines as a result of stacking key pins to operate with keys with different key bit depths in the same position - this is linear and sabotages security gravely ... The kaba cylinder is manipulating its pins hole quantities and locations to make master key instead of stacking key pins, which is dynamic and versatile... The regular key differ cylinders could use up to 20 pin holes for ultimate security, and only reducing the pin hole quantitties to make master key... You know master keying brings convenience by compromising security, yet kaba manages to maintain the maximum balance of security and convenience, considering the least 12 pin holes are still above the security level of all the serrated keys.

    At one time, BMW used the automotive version of this lock, in their vehicles, during the mid-1970's. My dad's Bavarian CS had this style lock for the ignition, doors, & trunk. There was a couple different options, one of which was known as the valet key, which only operated the ignition & doors, but not the trunk. At the time, no local locksmiths could even pick the lock, let alone make a copy of the key. I believe my dad ordered a couple of spares, through the local BMW dealer, and they came directly from Germany.

    Wow. I love high quality, precision stuff and this has it all. The first lock that would have me paranoid about not having the key in my hand.

      Edited 56 minutes after posting.
      I got my key, left it at work on my toolbox.
      I now attached 4 20mm Nuts on the keychain so I can’t miss it.

    This is the LockPickingLawyer and today I am standing in front of the White House and as you can see they use a abus lock model: 1234 which has quite a few flaws.....nothing at one, a little click out of two.....and there it is how to open the lock which the White House uses!

    What size are the plugs of these locks and wouldn't it be easier to make a follower than to try holding all the key pins in while loading the top pins and springs? Great video BTW and I like this technique of using the rake. I will have to try it.

    Just last week I was searching for videos of a Kaba 20 and there it is! By the way: would it be considered cheating to have the key in sight while picking? This would probably give you hints about the correct pin depths..

      This one got picked has only 12 pin holes, it must be at the lowest tier of a master key system... the standard kaba 20 have upto 22 pin holes for a serial/non-master keyed cylinder...

    I've found that you can usually find a deep socket of the correct size to use as a follower if you don't have one or don't have the correct size follower. 👍 I'm sure you have deep sockets in your tools. Right?
    My biggest issue when I SPP is oversetting pins. What can I do to keep that from happening so much?

  • @tomduke558
    @tomduke558 Před 4 lety

    A couple clarification for a whole picture - a retailed kaba 20 has up to 22 pins, this picking of a 12 pin cylinder proves no relevance:
    1.it is modified. Standard kaba cylinder is modular as an individual unit with its own core and housing, and uses Nickle plated steel pins. This 12 pin cylinder replaces the regular circular housing for a big round shell with an eccentric bore and uses prolonged brass driver pins to accommodate the use in a mortise cylinder...there'd be impact on the effectiveness of spring compression which undermines pick resistance.
    2.the minimal pin number of 12 and their array pattern suggest it is tailored for project use such as a central locking cylinder. Central locking enables mutual access by all the keys within particular series of keying or a master key system. For example, a master key managed building has a public room or shared area for all residents to enter, then the central locking cylinder will come into play that allows each key owner to access with their respective keys, no matter what tier their keys are postinged in the master key matrix (individual, sub-master or grand master).
    Situation like this didn't imply for an essential level of security. If you do want premium protection on those application, solution will be install a new lock and equip everyone with a new extra piece of key.
    I probably have to stop here for better not going deeper into the functional details of central locking.
