Owned a 90s Ford once. Had one of these locks, and it was so damn worn that I once opened it with a flathead without breaking anything. Took a bit of wiggling, but still...they aren't the greatest locks once worn.
I'm curious about how the internals of these locks compare--what's the actual defect inside the 3rd party lock that makes it so much worse than the OEM?
@@nibs7252 That wouldn't be enough - you can still turn the disk past the gate and end at the stop. Feels to me, like instead of 2-step production of the disks. Normally - first create generic "blank" disks - without gates, but notches for stops and the keyhole (and optionally false gates), then assemble the stack of them on the key and cut the straight line of true gates to match this specific key. Here - the blanks are just plain featureless "washers" just with the keyhole, then placed on the key to have both the stops and the gates cut in one go. As result they all act like zero-cut.
@@sharpfang The production isn't even that complicated. The disks are mass produced, with different "stoops" for bitting just like the different size pins in pin tumbler locks. Then they pick a combination of them stack them in the lock with spacers between each and you are done. Some manufacturers don't bother with false gates when they make their key disks. That's it. It boils down to them not bothering and the tolerances they choose to manage to.
@@gtbarsi1103 If you're creating a couple hundred thousand locks of the same type (like a car manufacturer), sure. If you're making a run of a couple hundred to a couple thousand knock-offs - of a custom lock with keyway and disk shape only found in this model, like here - you won't obtain the bulk-produced original disks, you must make your own - and you start cutting corners.

If I recall correctly, you could easily lock just about any Ford vehicle with your Tibbe key back then, and if the locks were worn, opening was often possible as well. Simply not a good lock concept.
I came out of the shop and got into the wrong ford recently. Everything was so similar but something was odd until I realised it was a different vehicle. I had opened it with the key.
aaand I just got a lesson in how secure my bike lock is - I was passing time watching a few of these and decided to have a go at feeling out the combination of my bike lock, and opened it without looking while I watched this video. I'm so glad I'm only bothering with it as a bonus deterrent to stop people from stealing my unicycle.
I worked as a mechanic in a Ford dealership in the early 90’s and every week we would have these locks easily forced open by thieves with a hammer and screw driver both door and ignition locks.
These locks were first seen on the transit connect The late 90s super duty door locks could be opened by jamming a screwdriver into them and turning the whole lock cylinder in the door handle, but they were a wafer style
My dad taught me to drive in a transit van when I was 8 years old. He also showed me how to open one of these locks with a snapped fork when I locked the keys inside the van
Function over form. That thing has just the parts needed to operate it with no respect how nice it looks. The actual design requires very thin walled pipes that are probably steel. Imagine trying to put 6 metal pipes inside each other and the biggest pipe has *outer* diameter around 3 mm (~ 1/8 inch).
Tradesmen: freaking out about leaving their tools in vans secured with this lock which requires a specialised tool to pick. Me, looking at the shitty wafer lock or cheap padlock on the site box: Righto lads
@@kUdtiHaEX He's talking about the lock, the Jaguar version of the Tibbe key had 8 positions instead of the 6 on the ford key. Still stupidly insecure, but at least my Jag is old enough it doesn't have Tibbe on the doors fortunately. My ford however has Tibbe everywhere, I wish I could do something about that. I'm probably going to install my own DIY additional immobiliser and tracker. I should probably make a couple of them...
When he said the aftermarket lock was already picked, it felt like David Blaine revealing a magic trick on a picture in your wallet that you carry around.
In my family, we had a '90 Ford Transit, with the exactly same keys. My sister bought a Mondeo around 2010. It happened that the Transit key opened the Mondeo, but couldn't start it, but the keys from the Mondeo had unlimited access to the Transit.
Gotta love Ford Transits... My dad used to have one that failed to start quite often... Tried to tow it a few times and failed miserably... Basically just needed a little push and it started right away...
They were targeting workers vans up my way a while back and two of the owners got over £10,000 of tools between them. One of the owners now parks his car against the vans back doors now.
@@sarkybugger5009 my 83 f150 was laughable. When I got it the ignition didn't even need a key. Not even a screwdriver or pocket knife. You could turn the switch by hand and start it. It had a non locking sliding glass window and I pretty much assumed it wouldn't get stolen because it looked like a hunk of scrap and didn't even lock the doors. Even if I wouldve anybody could've easily opened it and drove away.
@Shadow Cat Modern Engines are typically interference engine whether chain or belt driven. Ford has been dreadful when it comes to chain, guide, tensioner and phaser failure. A while ago a 2018 f-150 with 70,000kms came in with a failed tensioner. Prior to that a 2012, prior to that 2 2004’s with failed timing systems and I only operate a one man operation here. Nevermind what’s happening at other shops that I’ve heard.
nah, just how to get in it. Ford has used RFID immobilizers for over 20 years now so the car won't start with out a key that's been programed in to the car.
@@johngaltline9933 if you can get in you can get it away by other means, transits are vans so the contents are normally tools and just getting in is enough to give someone a real bad day.
@@masterv2041 You really have no idea how this works, do you? The key will turn the cylinder, but the car won't start. There is a coil that surrounds the cylinder that energizes a tiny microchip in the key body and reads a code from it. the computer won't let the car start if it is not given the correct key. Further the immobilizer will lock down the computer until the proper code is read from a key it has been programed to, so the engine will not run. This is 20+year old tech and has been standard on ford products since the late 90's.
Is it just me, or is LPL sound like he is getting bored? Is there no challenge left for him??? Someone please get the man a great lock to pick and gut!
Nice to see A very familiar looking lock, I’ve built hundreds of these locks to key numbers over the years as part of my job in the uk motor industry.. the keys are also dead easy to read off to obtain the key number of the vehicle provided it’s not too worn out. The later design locks are also just as easy to assemble to key and disassemble to decode to obtain the key number..
I find these videos fascinating! I have never been interested in learning lock-picking... but now it reminds me of trying to solve a rubrics cube" I am seriously temped to get a beginners set just to see is I can figure it out.

He said "disc detainer" and I immediately thought "the tool that bosnian bill and I made" ... Not disappointed, I've never seen that tool before but it makes sense. Is there a video on picking disc detainer locks without the specialist tools?
These ford locks are notorious in the UK as there were a limited number of combintions cut. This means that as Ford were the highest selling manufacturer by far here you could take your key to 3-5 cars and it would almost definately fit one of them. I got in a car identical to mine after visiting at a hospital and if it weere not for the owner haveing an imobilizer i would have driven it home. The owner never knew :)
What an awesome looking tool! These kinds of locks seem to be the equivalent of "security by obscurity" in the IT world, people who don't know what they're looking for will be totally lost but once you know what you're looking at the illusion of security vanishes.
My grandfather had a 1988 EU Ford Escort. He lived in a small town. Everything aligned to him ordering a new key at the Ford Dealership, at the same time he picked it up someone else also picked their similar key, at the same time. Staff was perplexed that both keys had the same combination. Both keys could open both car doors. Car security wasn't great in the 1980s and it seems things haven't improved greatly.

Q: What’s worse than these Ford van locks?
Older Ford Transit locks. You could open my 1979 Transit with _anything_ that would fit in the keyhole.
@@sarkybugger5009 my 83 f150 was laughable. When I got it the ignition didn't even need a key. Not even a screwdriver or pocket knife. You could turn the switch by hand and start it. It had a non locking sliding glass window and I pretty much assumed it wouldn't get stolen because it looked like a hunk of scrap and didn't even lock the doors. Even if I wouldve anybody could've easily opened it and drove away.
@Shadow Cat Modern Engines are typically interference engine whether chain or belt driven. Ford has been dreadful when it comes to chain, guide, tensioner and phaser failure. A while ago a 2018 f-150 with 70,000kms came in with a failed tensioner. Prior to that a 2012, prior to that 2 2004’s with failed timing systems and I only operate a one man operation here. Nevermind what’s happening at other shops that I’ve heard.
"This tool is pretty incredible. It uses a series of tubes...." So, it's like the Internet, then.
Damn. You beat me to that og intarwebs.
Damn... a shame I'm half a day late, I was going to make the same joke.
That tool looks amazing
That tool looks like a miniature sci fi space station... absolutely insane design...
Fun Fact: I’m watching this instead of doing homework
I should go do my homework
Let’s go!!!
This man is first
Couldnt help but read that in Jomboy's voice....
@@michaelirwin7258 😂Yup!!
All locks are vulnerable. Thanks LPL
Thank you LPL I needed the laugh.
Alternative title: "How to get an older car for free"
nah, just how to get in it. Ford has used RFID immobilizers for over 20 years now so the car won't start with out a key that's been programed in to the car.
@@johngaltline9933 if you can get in you can get it away by other means, transits are vans so the contents are normally tools and just getting in is enough to give someone a real bad day.
@@johngaltline9933 Can I point out that the keys for these aren't RFID keys and these are ignition cylinders.
'Don't watch this if you're a car thief'
@@masterv2041 You really have no idea how this works, do you? The key will turn the cylinder, but the car won't start. There is a coil that surrounds the cylinder that energizes a tiny microchip in the key body and reads a code from it. the computer won't let the car start if it is not given the correct key. Further the immobilizer will lock down the computer until the proper code is read from a key it has been programed to, so the engine will not run. This is 20+year old tech and has been standard on ford products since the late 90's.
Is it just me, or is LPL sound like he is getting bored? Is there no challenge left for him??? Someone please get the man a great lock to pick and gut!
Buenos videos y las ganzuas que presentas amigo gracias por compartir tus enseñanzas👍 maestro
Nice to see A very familiar looking lock, I’ve built hundreds of these locks to key numbers over the years as part of my job in the uk motor industry..
the keys are also dead easy to read off to obtain the key number of the vehicle provided it’s not too worn out.
The later design locks are also just as easy to assemble to key and disassemble to decode to obtain the key number..
Anyone else seen that Righteous guy comment abuse on every post, think hes a little butt hurt... 😂
Yep, he has been working his way through the comments going out of his way to be an ass.
Probably a designer for Master Lock.
He’s pissed about something, dunno why he has to bring it here tho
10 bucks says he's the locksmith that couldn't open that bike lock a viewer sent in...
What's his account name because I've seen several people who could fit that description
everyone is first.
Me too? :o
Why do you have such a soothing voice
I find these videos fascinating!
I have never been interested in learning lock-picking... but now it reminds me of trying to solve a rubrics cube"
I am seriously temped to get a beginners set just to see is I can figure it out.
I dont think he needs to write 'picked' in every video's title cause its obvious.
Lol
It makes me laugh whenever I watch these videos, it's nearly 3 minutes long but he picks the locks in under a minute of video everytime
@@righteousone1 by amateur do you mean he lacks in skill or that he doesn't lock pick as a profession?
Gotta boost on the algorithm
@@righteousone1lemme correct ya, - lpl is 'a mateur'
@@righteousone1
1- call LPL an amateur at lockpicking (he’s making money of these CZcams vids so regardless of his skill that makes him a professional)
2- call people who defend him fan girls to get a response
3- reply to a comment you don’t understand with “oy vey” to make you seem sophisticated.
You sound like a broken record mate. Everyone sees you for what you are in a couple comments. Just stop the insults and watch some cute puppies or something to put you in a better mood
He said "disc detainer" and I immediately thought "the tool that bosnian bill and I made" ... Not disappointed, I've never seen that tool before but it makes sense.
Is there a video on picking disc detainer locks without the specialist tools?
Just drove a transit today. perfect
These ford locks are notorious in the UK as there were a limited number of combintions cut. This means that as Ford were the highest selling manufacturer by far here you could take your key to 3-5 cars and it would almost definately fit one of them. I got in a car identical to mine after visiting at a hospital and if it weere not for the owner haveing an imobilizer i would have driven it home. The owner never knew :)
I bet your actually the worlds greatest thief.
Became a lawyer just to make him a better thief.
Good thing he uses his power for good
@@cumunist2120 how do we honesty know?
@@charlesb.3569 I doubt he cares about being good because if he goes to prison you can guess what will happen
I am here early, love the vids bro
Amazing!! Loved that one
That pick is awesome.
What an awesome looking tool! These kinds of locks seem to be the equivalent of "security by obscurity" in the IT world, people who don't know what they're looking for will be totally lost but once you know what you're looking at the illusion of security vanishes.
Very interesting lock and tool
We are seeing the evolution of the electronic screwdriver. LPL The Doctor!
That is one of the coolest lockpicks I've seen, haven't seen many though
WE definitely got that open together. Good job everyone
😎man l.p.l I must have missed that video from my LPL library. Great video my friend. 😎
El mejor canal
My grandfather had a 1988 EU Ford Escort. He lived in a small town. Everything aligned to him ordering a new key at the Ford Dealership, at the same time he picked it up someone else also picked their similar key, at the same time. Staff was perplexed that both keys had the same combination. Both keys could open both car doors. Car security wasn't great in the 1980s and it seems things haven't improved greatly.
