you should rekey a lock at least when you first move in, some people suggest even more often if theres a chance you lost a copy of the key or someone made a mold
For those of you concerned about the ease of overcoming these locks, remember, these locks have been studied, a lot taken apart and studied more, tried before the video, and done in ideal conditions, with all the best tools available, mounted or held for maximum comfort and access, performed by a very capable individual. Most all of these locks will never be approached/ picked under such great conditions in real life, but that does not take away from the fact that LPL is pretty darn good at this.
@@pwhnckexstflajizdryvombqug9042 Also locks are for keeping honest people "honest" a determined thief would probably use a destructive method to open this lock.
@@pwhnckexstflajizdryvombqug9042 the average is going threw a smashed window, or through the roof (most aussie roofs are tin or old britle tiles spanned over rafters. Once sun damaged, you can step through the tiles. The tin needs an angle grinder or less. Or rip off a whirly girly bare hands and slide on in.)
@@rhys5567 your bottom level/crackhead will do that, but the average or better will just go find another house on the street that they can get into without having to destroy shit/make heaps of noise/set off alarms.
@@another1commenter770 It could be even better if it was a double lock lock (don't know the correct term, a lock that you have to unlock twice to open it), that would mean you'd have to pick it twice. Even LPL needed around 3 minutes to pick it once, in a perfect environment.
@@tommypetraglia4688 3 minutes. You say that as if it is unimpressive. Keep in mind this guy is a pro it would take an eternity for someone else to pick this.

I just liked the "find in the wild" line bc it makes it sound like it's some captured animal. You go on a walk around the park and see a lock foraging for food and another one climbing up a tree.
he also can practice beforehand, discard recordings where things don't work, and can look at the key out-of-frame to estimate where the gates are. But still it's impressive and very informative.
This lock is an interesting one. Once you know how to pick it, it’s not actually that hard, but it’s very different from picking other locks. Most of what makes it time consuming is that it has 12 pins, but each pin only has 3 possible positions, and they’re nearly impossible to overset. Because of this, it puts it in a similar category for me as the DUO and gen 1 smartkey, where the biggest obstacle is that it’s just different. Don’t get me wrong though, it’s far harder than the smartkey or duo, but once you’ve got the touch for the lock, all of them become reasonably “easy” in that they’ll all feel the same.
@@Loupgarou21 I mean yes it is relatively easy to pick and manly time consuming because of the amount of pins similar to why a good cross lock is hard to pick but I was more making a joke.
Gold. I am familiar with these locks and keys. Fun fact: those keys will collect whatever rubbish is in your pockets. As a Sydney resident I knew the convict word would appear in this thread. Thanks LPL for taking this challenge. Great video.
"I have here a high security lock even professionals are going to have trouble with." Also LPL *3 minutes later* "Okay now lets disassemble this lock and see why I broke it open in less time it takes to make coffee."
That is the whole idea! Only the locksmith who sold the cylinder is authorised to make extra keys. And only suitably qualified locksmiths are allowed to purchase the 'kit' needed to sell and service these cylinders. To make keys, a 'clipper' is needed to make the key to code (they are not 'duplicated') and a device to bend the unfinished key into the U shape. In USA 'Lock Snobs' is one franchisee who sell these cylinders to the public and can provide extra keys. As far as I know, the Australian factory does not sell 'ready to go' cylinders. The franchisee locksmith makes up cylinders as required for customers which can be keyed alike or masterkeyed.
@@jasontaylor7419 If that is your biggest worry then use a cylinder that takes a 'C4' key (the most common type in Australia) or Schlage C etc. The outfits that use Bilock want security and key control so are prepared to pay the greater cost of these cylinders and keys.
@@jasontaylor7419 yeah - ask any nuber of office property managers this - there is a reason a lot of them charge a deposit returnable on return of the keys (both because they are expensive - and to ensure their return) - don't forget when someone loses the master key in a campus set - the cost for replacing all the cylinders is ASTRONOMICAL
Yeah, restricted blanks and keys that are difficult to replicate are usually advertised as sought-after features for a high-security lock, not downsides
These locks are used to secure ATM’s and money down here as well, they have a sort of “levelling” system regarding the keys. All keys will fit into all of these locks, but will only work if it was designed specifically for the serial code of the lock and “master” keys are designed for a specific range of serial numbers regarding the locks. Also fun fact: lock smiths can’t and won’t cut these keys, they have to be ordered directly from the company or their licensed private/commercial locksmiths
You're almost but not quite correct when it comes to all keys fitting. Generally the plugs come with the standard 102 broach faceplate which is basically blank, and is by far the most common option especially in 2nd Gen BiLock. However some licensed resellers have faceplates/key blanks that do have unique warding (113 broach, 101 broach etc.). Having said that, the warding is very shallow and doesn't really do anything to stop picking, it only stops the incorrect broach key being inserted and even then it's not particularly difficult to get around (a thin hand file and some patience usually does the trick). I'm admittedly pretty lousy at picking BiLock myself, but one of my mates is pretty good at it.
@@horatioyen256 You have to be a signatory to get keys cut, which is the same as most other restricted systems. I've not heard of the need to provide a card for a BiLock system before. The card system you're describing sounds an lot like the procedure to order the Abloy EMC keys for meter boxes. Are you sure the two haven't been mixed up? (I'm happy to be proven wrong)
The clicks on that thing are loud. Also, 2 minutes and 40 seconds for him to pick. I don't think I've seen something take so long for him in a long time.
Well, he did have to pick two locks basically. He talked it up a lot, but I didn't notice him mention any features that made it too difficult to pick. At a guess I'd say a somewhat skilled person with some understanding of the lock could pick it in under 20 minutes, which is a lot of time making it risky but for the right target and a somewhat hidden spot may be worth it.
@@jkolbly1 if you’re already familiar with picking a bilock it shouldn’t take more than about 5 minutes to open any bilock you come across. The sidebars isolate really reliably, which makes it a lot easier to pick. One kind of disappointing thing is that unlike most high sec locks, the bilock can also be raked open.
@@Loupgarou21 ???? Fact? Can it really?? They are still some cool looking locks!! And hes so good now hes getting locks from different parts of the world like he already whipped all the ones in the .U.S.
Australia is known for the fact everything can kill you outside, so it's seems fair their locks can keep you safe inside at least. Also in the top 10 of LPL locks for house, best advertisement.
"As we would find it in the wild." It's me, Beahr Grylls, here today showing you the BiLock, here in it's natural environment, away from it's doorframe for the first tihme.
I am a locksmith and have been for almost 30 years and I have picked one of these bilock locks before about 15 years ago and I have never pick one since, he has practice this a lot to be able to pick that lock and probably know what high to push each of the 12 pins, well done to to him tho as they are very hard locks to pick.
@@Gribbo9999 Who has only one key to a lock? There are people in the US who can cut these, call up, identify yourself and they cut it from code and mail it.
@@marvindebot3264 Particularly with this key type, you've got a chance of the key snapping in the lock. So you'd need a locksmith who can drill/remove for you - and you'd want to be able to manage that in a couple of hours not a couple of days. Now depending on your house style (number of doors etc), that delay might be a much smaller problem for anyone who does indeed keep spare keys accessible.
@@rhas356 it is a lock used for mostly commercial purposes, not residential housing. That massively increases the chances of having spares since businesses often need to be opened up by more than one person.
I work at Sydney Trains and all of our secure rooms use these locks. Can confirm that they are very robust and stand up to a lot of abuse. Was always curious as to the strange design of the key and the way that the masterkeys worked.
As an Aussie, I've always wondered how they are constructed & how they work, so thanks! Once was one of the last to leave a meeting, & found one of these type of keys near the entrance after they'd locked up & left (didn't try to unlock any of the hall's doors as I knew it was alarmed), but they were very appreciative when key was returned as a replacement-key isn't cheap!
The problem with those locks, is that if they are exported to my part of the world, they'd have to be installed upside down. Which is a hassle. But yeah, if I was worried about people picking my locks, I would probably see if I could buy one of these locks. Even though I'd have to install it upside down.
Wow,I worked for that company and seeing the pin and sidebars again bring back memories I use to set the pin and sidebar machines great video and great australian product
Not a lot of people realize this but, I can tell you that this man is one of the greatest lock pickers of all time. He picks like Monet painted and Curry shoots. I would gladly pay money to watch him share his art.
As a tool design engineer it always fascinates me to see the similarity in locks and how they're built once in awhile something different happens it's always fun to look at the inside of the locks to see what makes him work
BiLock's website has this: "There are claims of people picking a BiLock cylinder. In every case we have researched, the operating key was already in their hand and they refused to let us examine the actual lock. This leads us to believe that the locks were "modified" to make it look easy to pick." Guess they need to watch this video. Contrast with Bowley. On their website, they admit any lock can be picked given enough time and the right tools and they link the CZcams videos for your entertainment. BTW, LPL has yet to pick the Bowley on camera.
The real test for BiLock as a company will now be if they choose to act honourably and revise their marketing message, or whether they double down on their assertion and deny the legitimacy of the pick because it didn't happen on their rather narrow terms.
Yeah, no kidding. I've been waiting for a bowley picking since I learned about them. They're one of the trickiest locks in the world to pick and using conventional tools it's probably impossible altogether. Maybe LPL is constructing a specialized pick just for them.
To be fair though, LPL said the lock is in his top 10, from hundreds of locks if not thousands, if there was a company I wanted to be 'mislead' by it would be this one.
here we see an LPL in his natural habitat, about to take down his prey "as found in the wild". The lock stands no chance against the tensioning bar and pick that all wild LPL have. The LPL then proceeds to gut his victim, carefully pulling out its insides and proudly claiming it was a worthy prey, giving it words of praise.
Hey cool, we had these in HIgh School (in Australia) didn't know they were Australian made. I can see why the quick change key would come in handle. Replacing the locks on the >100 doors in the whole school would be tedious otherwise. Although they were starting to replace them with electronic locks. As it's easier to update then traditional keys.
@@botondkantor7421 Not what I meant. What you would hear is a loud bang as the front door implodes, because the SWAT officer raiding you has watched this channel and knows how this lock is stronger than the door.
"A tricky lock to open, I would choose to use this in my own house." Yea, that lock is unpickable by mortal standards. You're better off using an antimaterial rifle to blow open the door.
As a sec officer, I happily had these on my home locks, but at a certain educational facility I worked at, these were a bloody nightmare as they (could have been gen 1 tho) had a bad habit of weakening after lots of uses due to the double keyway, (lockups, opens every day by guards, and area checks. Luckily we didn't have too many of them, and most locks were abloy star shapes..which were like cheese after a few months usage. We were forever calling maintenance to replace the damn things. Which did.not.mske.them.happy. And as a control op, guards didn't give a rats on treating them well. Great video, I'd always thought these would be hard to pick!
Out of every lock I've seen LPL pick this lock is way better then most other countries locks by a landslide. Good job to the company that produces this lock very well made imo.
The Bi-Lock is used by the Australian Military for a lot of its high security locks etc. They use bi-locks even to lock the distribution boards up. There is a higher security version of the bi-lock, called the bi-lock exclusive. The active element is different, and is actually keyed, i.e. pin with springs and gates of some kind. With two facing the lock
I've seen these in the wild, and often wondered about how they worked. Thank-you for the informative video. One thing I can add is that when they're in situ, they're very sensitive to how the handle they're attached to is set. Often, the handle needs to be moved as far into the 'closed' position as it will go (i.e. tensioned) before the lock will turn.
As an Aussie, I always wondered about these locks. They’re everywhere down here, especially on schools, council buildings, government buildings etc. as a kid I always assumed they were pretty secure just by noticing they’re pretty much two keys in one. Thanks as always LPL!
@@samuelyoung2671 Good news! We know the answer. Australia changed its laws on gun ownership in the mid-90s. Gun deaths and the homicide rate are both considerably lower than before then, so lower gun ownership has made the country safer. :-)
I just have to say after the Tons of vids I've watched of yours you make picking look so simple it doesn't matter if your raking or picking or using custom tools you make it look like anyone could do it. I've so much respect for your talent I don't know how long it took you to developed but I'm glad your doing so well on here with subscribers likes and views a talent like your is akin to watching a magic trick and without a platform I would never have seen something so basic in format yet so entertaining. Thanks so much.
I have done a small amount of lock sport and found it a useful skill for getting into control cabinets when customers have lost the keys. I really enjoy your videos thanks.
These locks are immune to funnel webs, any snake and irukandji venom. There is recorded proof of them being consumed by and crapped out by great white sharks and the largest of salt water crocodiles. Some carcases of such critters have been found with these locks still in their digestive tracts. These locks are however susceptible to magpies. I'm not talking about the birds. Collingwood supporters have been known to bypass the lock by finding the heaviest thing they can lift and throwing it through your window.
This brought back memories of changing cores over back when I worked on the pokies (slot machines) 10 years ago (in australia). Had to repair a few of those in a dark room with flashing lights and people down on their luck and fueled by beer. Always fun. Waiting for the day I would see these on here. 👍
I had to remove so many of these locks in my old job, a good drill bit got the job done quick enough. Most locksmiths in Australia wouldn't even bother try to pick these they just destroy them and replace them afterwards.
The big advantage I see in high-security locks is that very few people are capable of covert entry. Destructive entry is always possible but the best locks make it very unlikely that anyone will do so without you knowing it. Even the majority of locksmiths can not pick these, a fact that has frustrated many a copper with a covert entry warrant.
It would be less interesting if one could not see what he was doing because of said hand. It might be a small advantage, but it certainly does not affect the outcome meaningfully.
Have used these locks for over 20 years. One of the keys on my bunch has a flaw which has caused me and others to bend and break the key. Recently had a cylinder go bad and other keys would open the door. Thankfully, no one took advantage before it was repaired. As with any lock, sometimes they need lubricant to return to working order.
These locks were installed throughout my high school, and were impossible to pick. That being said, the rest of the door and door frame was so shit that the latch didn’t actually engage half the time...
We have a couple classrooms where you can just pull off the aluminum flashing and open the door. Bloody lock isn't even held in it's own piece of metal, just rubs il against the bare metal, that unclips from the facade of the building. It's never the lock at fault, but the implementation and how it's installed.
Look at some of the Pen Tester (penetration tester) vids, it's always lackadaisical fitment that defeats even the best factory engineered locks. So. Many. Failure. Modes. Kinda like not needing a thousand years on a quantum computer to break some encryption, just beat the guy who knows the passphrase with a stick.
Hey, that’s the lock we use at our place, even got a couple Bilock padlocks for our shed. For some reason, proud to be an owner now since it took LPL almost 3min to pick and in his top 10 choices! Aussie, aussie, aussie! Oi! Oi! Oi!

Thief in front of the door: "How to pick this one?" *Goes on LPL channel* LPL: "This is a tricky one... probably in the top 10 on my list of high security cylinders that I would consider using on my own house." Thief: "Damn, I give up. Movin on."
The most you can *ever* hope for with security systems is to dissuade prospective attackers and make them look elsewhere. This appears to do its job admirably!
Trust a nation formed by convicts to come up with some of the best security solutions. The only issue with these is that companies who use them tend to get them all keyed the same. I had a Sydney Water Bilock key once and it opened every Sydney Water Bilock and water tower gate padlock and sewage works lock I ever came across
Well yes, of course. Sydney Water is the government utility that manages all the drinking water, stormwater and sewerage for the entire city. Their master keys are DESIGNED to open every single Sydney Water lock. That's the whole idea of them.... so that workers don't need to carry 100's of thousands of keys that need to be stored in a trailer that is towed behind every car and truck in their fleet. Think about it, DOH.
@@johncoops6897 Yes mate I fully understand that. But unfortunately there is far too many of those keys now out there in public hands meaning anyone might have access to your water supply. Most people are OK and might just use a site for sneaky free parking (As I had many times) But some might have malicious intent and it's not great in that respect
@@averagejo1626 that's the difference between the average criminal and someone who has spent their entire life popping locks for fun and profit like LPL here.

LPL: “As you would find it in the wild”
Also LPL: *Puts hand behind lock*
It's for the camera angle, he can tension it from the front but it would block the view.
I just liked the "find in the wild" line bc it makes it sound like it's some captured animal. You go on a walk around the park and see a lock foraging for food and another one climbing up a tree.
he also can practice beforehand, discard recordings where things don't work, and can look at the key out-of-frame to estimate where the gates are. But still it's impressive and very informative.
LPL would probably easily put his hand behind any lock in the wild after a couple minutes, so it's fair.
I think this is the longest I’ve seen him take to pick a lock. I’m impressed.
Well, I mean it did have to pick it twice 😎
LPL: *takes more than 2mins to pick the lock*
LPL fans: I’ll take your entire stock!
I was thinking the same thing lol
This lock is an interesting one. Once you know how to pick it, it’s not actually that hard, but it’s very different from picking other locks. Most of what makes it time consuming is that it has 12 pins, but each pin only has 3 possible positions, and they’re nearly impossible to overset. Because of this, it puts it in a similar category for me as the DUO and gen 1 smartkey, where the biggest obstacle is that it’s just different. Don’t get me wrong though, it’s far harder than the smartkey or duo, but once you’ve got the touch for the lock, all of them become reasonably “easy” in that they’ll all feel the same.
@@Loupgarou21 I mean yes it is relatively easy to pick and manly time consuming because of the amount of pins similar to why a good cross lock is hard to pick but I was more making a joke.

@@christopherjones7191 2minutes 42 seconds. I checked because I was qmazed at how long this one took. Fun stuff!
You know a lock is good when the “downside” it has is that locksmiths can’t even make keys for it!
That is the whole idea! Only the locksmith who sold the cylinder is authorised to make extra keys. And only suitably qualified locksmiths are allowed to purchase the 'kit' needed to sell and service these cylinders. To make keys, a 'clipper' is needed to make the key to code (they are not 'duplicated') and a device to bend the unfinished key into the U shape. In USA 'Lock Snobs' is one franchisee who sell these cylinders to the public and can provide extra keys. As far as I know, the Australian factory does not sell 'ready to go' cylinders. The franchisee locksmith makes up cylinders as required for customers which can be keyed alike or masterkeyed.
And the keys are expensive when you need to replace.
@@jasontaylor7419 If that is your biggest worry then use a cylinder that takes a 'C4' key (the most common type in Australia) or Schlage C etc. The outfits that use Bilock want security and key control so are prepared to pay the greater cost of these cylinders and keys.
@@jasontaylor7419 yeah - ask any nuber of office property managers this - there is a reason a lot of them charge a deposit returnable on return of the keys (both because they are expensive - and to ensure their return) - don't forget when someone loses the master key in a campus set - the cost for replacing all the cylinders is ASTRONOMICAL
Yeah, restricted blanks and keys that are difficult to replicate are usually advertised as sought-after features for a high-security lock, not downsides
These locks are used to secure ATM’s and money down here as well, they have a sort of “levelling” system regarding the keys. All keys will fit into all of these locks, but will only work if it was designed specifically for the serial code of the lock and “master” keys are designed for a specific range of serial numbers regarding the locks.
Also fun fact: lock smiths can’t and won’t cut these keys, they have to be ordered directly from the company or their licensed private/commercial locksmiths
You're almost but not quite correct when it comes to all keys fitting. Generally the plugs come with the standard 102 broach faceplate which is basically blank, and is by far the most common option especially in 2nd Gen BiLock. However some licensed resellers have faceplates/key blanks that do have unique warding (113 broach, 101 broach etc.).
Having said that, the warding is very shallow and doesn't really do anything to stop picking, it only stops the incorrect broach key being inserted and even then it's not particularly difficult to get around (a thin hand file and some patience usually does the trick).
I'm admittedly pretty lousy at picking BiLock myself, but one of my mates is pretty good at it.
@@Switchopens you still need the card though to make a copy
@@horatioyen256 You have to be a signatory to get keys cut, which is the same as most other restricted systems.
I've not heard of the need to provide a card for a BiLock system before.
The card system you're describing sounds an lot like the procedure to order the Abloy EMC keys for meter boxes. Are you sure the two haven't been mixed up? (I'm happy to be proven wrong)
I ran a 64 Apartment building in Annandale. Our local Annandale Locksmiths would cut them for me, many moons ago….
So wait, you're saying I just have to get as good as the LPL and I can just empty every ATM I come across in Australia in 2 1/2 minutes?!
The clicks on that thing are loud.
Also, 2 minutes and 40 seconds for him to pick. I don't think I've seen something take so long for him in a long time.
Well, he did have to pick two locks basically. He talked it up a lot, but I didn't notice him mention any features that made it too difficult to pick. At a guess I'd say a somewhat skilled person with some understanding of the lock could pick it in under 20 minutes, which is a lot of time making it risky but for the right target and a somewhat hidden spot may be worth it.
@@jkolbly1 if you’re already familiar with picking a bilock it shouldn’t take more than about 5 minutes to open any bilock you come across. The sidebars isolate really reliably, which makes it a lot easier to pick. One kind of disappointing thing is that unlike most high sec locks, the bilock can also be raked open.
@@Loupgarou21 ???? Fact? Can it really?? They are still some cool looking locks!! And hes so good now hes getting locks from different parts of the world like he already whipped all the ones in the .U.S.

Not a lot of people realize this but, I can tell you that this man is one of the greatest lock pickers of all time. He picks like Monet painted and Curry shoots. I would gladly pay money to watch him share his art.
As a tool design engineer it always fascinates me to see the similarity in locks and how they're built once in awhile something different happens it's always fun to look at the inside of the locks to see what makes him work
BiLock's website has this: "There are claims of people picking a BiLock cylinder. In every case we have researched, the operating key was already in their hand and they refused to let us examine the actual lock. This leads us to believe that the locks were "modified" to make it look easy to pick." Guess they need to watch this video. Contrast with Bowley. On their website, they admit any lock can be picked given enough time and the right tools and they link the CZcams videos for your entertainment. BTW, LPL has yet to pick the Bowley on camera.
The real test for BiLock as a company will now be if they choose to act honourably and revise their marketing message, or whether they double down on their assertion and deny the legitimacy of the pick because it didn't happen on their rather narrow terms.
Yeah it’s sad. There are many proven BiLock picks on CZcams but they instead choose to act like children.
Yeah, no kidding. I've been waiting for a bowley picking since I learned about them. They're one of the trickiest locks in the world to pick and using conventional tools it's probably impossible altogether. Maybe LPL is constructing a specialized pick just for them.
yea bowley has unique key frame
also they linked LPL's vid regarding Bowley
To be fair though, LPL said the lock is in his top 10, from hundreds of locks if not thousands, if there was a company I wanted to be 'mislead' by it would be this one.
here we see an LPL in his natural habitat, about to take down his prey "as found in the wild". The lock stands no chance against the tensioning bar and pick that all wild LPL have. The LPL then proceeds to gut his victim, carefully pulling out its insides and proudly claiming it was a worthy prey, giving it words of praise.

One thing I can add is that when they're in situ, they're very sensitive to how the handle they're attached to is set. Often, the handle needs to be moved as far into the 'closed' position as it will go (i.e. tensioned) before the lock will turn.

These locks are immune to funnel webs, any snake and irukandji venom. There is recorded proof of them being consumed by and crapped out by great white sharks and the largest of salt water crocodiles. Some carcases of such critters have been found with these locks still in their digestive tracts. These locks are however susceptible to magpies. I'm not talking about the birds. Collingwood supporters have been known to bypass the lock by finding the heaviest thing they can lift and throwing it through your window.

Any 18V angle grinder makes short work of the padlocks, of course.
The big advantage I see in high-security locks is that very few people are capable of covert entry. Destructive entry is always possible but the best locks make it very unlikely that anyone will do so without you knowing it. Even the majority of locksmiths can not pick these, a fact that has frustrated many a copper with a covert entry warrant.

Hey, that’s the lock we use at our place, even got a couple Bilock padlocks for our shed. For some reason, proud to be an owner now since it took LPL almost 3min to pick and in his top 10 choices! Aussie, aussie, aussie! Oi! Oi! Oi!
I used to keep my Ozzie oi gameboy behind a U lock in my Teacher's draw in primary school
just think how very much longer it would have taken if he didn't already have a working key to know exactly what the pin depths were
@@nunyabidnessbigbrother1363 and if he didn’t own the lock for over 5 years, iv got a Bilock oval I’ll happily send it to him in the mail and if he can open it from the packaging within 20 minutes I’ll send him $1000 via PayPal if he doesn’t want that I’ll donate it to a charity of his choice in his name
Cool 😎 I'mma head over there now. Borrow a glass of milk 🥛.
Wow, a 7 minute long LPL video, must be a really good lock.
That was really fast and very educational as well as descriptive. Great Job LPL.
Thief in front of the door: "How to pick this one?"
*Goes on LPL channel*
LPL: "This is a tricky one... probably in the top 10 on my list of high security cylinders that I would consider using on my own house."
Thief: "Damn, I give up. Movin on."
The most you can *ever* hope for with security systems is to dissuade prospective attackers and make them look elsewhere. This appears to do its job admirably!
gg go next
Forget the door, let's go through the window...
@@HFIntegrale That makes a lot of noise. And isn't very subtle. Which is part of the point. Force them to make it obvious.
@@Sonofavenger I've had to repair holes thru roofs, stucco walls and block walls. Seems forcing the back door is the less common entry point.
I saw the key and I was expecting to hear "Now I'm going to use the U-shaped wave rake that Bosniabill and I made".
Lmao
Trust a nation formed by convicts to come up with some of the best security solutions.
The only issue with these is that companies who use them tend to get them all keyed the same. I had a Sydney Water Bilock key once and it opened every Sydney Water Bilock and water tower gate padlock and sewage works lock I ever came across
i seem to remember the only reason Australia became a penal colony was because the last one had a war of independence..... -cough cough-
@@Skreezilla that’s historically accurate
Well yes, of course. Sydney Water is the government utility that manages all the drinking water, stormwater and sewerage for the entire city. Their master keys are DESIGNED to open every single Sydney Water lock. That's the whole idea of them.... so that workers don't need to carry 100's of thousands of keys that need to be stored in a trailer that is towed behind every car and truck in their fleet. Think about it, DOH.
@@johncoops6897 Yes mate I fully understand that.
But unfortunately there is far too many of those keys now out there in public hands meaning anyone might have access to your water supply.
Most people are OK and might just use a site for sneaky free parking (As I had many times) But some might have malicious intent and it's not great in that respect
@@Skreezilla well yer?
Could really careless about locks or lockpicking until I discovered your videos. You’re awesome man, keep up the good work!
*Picks lock in 3 minutes*
"Yeah, I'd trust that for high security."
All it took to break into the United States Capitol Building was a folding chair. I watched it happen live. Seriously?
I guess this is a testament to LPL’s confidence in the ability of most criminals. 🤣
@@averagejo1626 that's the difference between the average criminal and someone who has spent their entire life popping locks for fun and profit like LPL here.
@@thomasborders6882 technically speaking burglary could be considered 'for fun and profit'
:D
@@sideswipe1261 Bruuuuh lmfao
Massive ad campaign sells millions of locks: "LPL needs almost three minutes to pick this lock!"
I recently watched your video on the tension bars you use and when to use them, this is a great visual example of the little bits of finesse you use on the tension bar and how you use it.
You and that MRE GUY HAVE THE SAME DEMEANOR. Not an insult you both have a very cool way of sharing. Thanks
"This is the LockPickingLawyer and here we have the storage case for nuclear warhead launch codes, as you can see not too difficult, got it picked in 20 seconds"
He should do videos on location.
Nuclear Warhead launch codes, at least in the US, is always 00000000 (eight zeroes). Or, in the newer versions, P7P7P7P7P7P7 (6 dials set to show "P7").
To be fair, nuclear launch keys aren't necessarily all that secure. The tricky is physically getting to the place to launch them.
@@PanduPoluan That changed 20 years ago mate
As an Australian this makes me unreasonably proud. I've never even heard of this brand.
They aren't cheap nor offered by box movers like Bunnings (hardware retail chain in Australia). See a locksmith.
I haven't seen it at Bunnings. So its high end.
Gutting a lock is the best bit. Wish you did more of these videos
I still remember trying to pick one of these to get into the teachers room to get my phone out of my bag when I left it inside accidentally during lunch. Never realised how far away from success I really was 😂😂😂😂😂
Are you Australian too? Seems like everyone who has seen these locks before is an Aussie.
Secondarily, since your first thought was to pick the lock, you must be an Aussie!
Haha yeah I am.
I like the second way you considered I must be Aussie 😂
But in all honesty it was because I couldn't be stuffed going to ask the teacher so I tried to get my own way in... 🤦🏻♂️ Ended up waiting for the end of lunch instead of walking to the staff room to get the teacher. 😂

Accidentally or unintentionally?
What type of accident was it in your case?
