How does this prevent the method of attack in the beginning of the video? The cable doesn't prevent it from lifting, and thats how you open it from the other side. Doesn't invalidate the product, but it sure hurts your integrity.
I was going to say the same thing. I can't jump the fence, but with a short step ladder, even wimpy me can get in. Instead of locking the gate, lock your shed, or wherever you keep your lawnmower and yard tools. We just opted to have a dog. He's not gonna bite anyone, but he'll be scratching on the door to get away from the scary stranger, and that'll alert us.
Hmmmm, no it doesnt. Even with the cover in place the gate pin lifts the latch in order to close. So the latch is still liftable with the very same stick used in the beginning.
@@shawnhiggins1005 first youd have to realize youd need a stick unless you plan on going in there back yard thatd be enough to stop someone whos trying to get in to steal something cause i doubt they wanna spend tge time trying to open it
If someone wanna get in to your backyard they just hop the fence or one good kick on that door and its open. The only thing that lock will do is to frustrate the hell out of you after a few weeks
@@ImALefty08 You hit this nail on the head my friend. My uncle was very wise amd I didn't. Understand him when I was kid. But I do now. He used to say locks are for the honest people. I would assume you have some common sense and experience under your belt. With that being said, the lock he had before that he opened with a stick was for honest people as well and was just as safe. Light tap with a tiny hammer from top down and this is toast and will pull cable and open at the same time! Either way, never heard anyone say it like my uncle did so cool for me to hear.
@@travisc5658In a scenario like this your lock should ideally be only a little more difficult to open than it is to climb over your fence. Most thieves would not even bother with the lock if there's an easier way in. What you don't want to do is pay a lot of money for a good lock that you're going to have to repair or replace when somebody inevitably jams something in there trying to get in. The other thing to think about is how much something like this might slow you or emergency workers down if you ever have an emergency at home. You want to slow thieves down and discourage them but you don't want to do the same thing for fire fighters or ambulance workers. When you're talking about securing a back yard, this could apply to your neighbours too. You don't want firefighters to have to chop your whole fence down because they needed access to your yard. Not because you care about fences, but that time could be the difference between somebody living or dying.
If you can’t get over it you must go under it, if you can’t go under it you must go over it, if you can’t go over it just kick the stupid door down and walk in 😂
After building my gates, I use the left over wood, to drill and chisel in a wood sliding latch that can be opened from both sides. Then I install a keyed a solid brass barrel lock that only prevents the wooden latch from coming back. I do this encase someone wants to sneak in or out my gates. You can leave it unlocked if you want. 12 years later, one is still working just fine.
This is just what I've been looking for! I have a very high gate but didn't know how to make it openable but lockable from both sides without the need for keys.
@@SIS3W3Nnah you still want them to feel like that lock has any security behind it so you can comeback later and get more stuff without putting in much effort, if you’ve got a stupid locking system like this you deserve to get your house robbed 😂

@@Gutterboyofficialyes, but if they could bring a crowbar, they could bring a ladder. If someone wants to get in, they will get in. The point of basic security systems is to prevent people from *wanting* to get in.
@@maliceharding4668My uncle used to drive an oldish car and never locked it. His reasoning was that there was nothing interesting in there anyway, but he'd rather someone opened the door to look around than have to replace a broken window for nothing 😂
For everyone complaining about the security of the combo box, I'd like to point out that it's doing a very good job of covering nearly 80% of the tear out.
Or do the same thing again… Or just lean up against the gate since those screws are like 1/2” long into wood. Wanting security on a fence gate is just dumb tbh, and this is a laughable attempt at even that lol
The funniest part of this entire short is the huge blowout he made when he used a masonry bit and a hammer drill to drill through the picket/post. It's so big that the lockbox can't even cover it. Hahahaha.
Now that you've beefed up security, every thief or thief's friend who sees your gate will know that there's something of value to steel on the other side.
I was just at a customer's house cleaning their windows, and they have the exact same lock. 10 minutes later, I got this video. I didn't even search this up.
There is nothing easier than opening one of those combination locks BTW. Just put some pressure on the latch and you can feel your way to the right combination
There are several places you could possibly slip something through to pull the cable, also you can most likely just bypass the combination lock by putting a decoder between the wheels and pushing the latch that holds the box closed
1 hammer blow to the box will open that gate. Shroud or no shroud, you actually made it easier to get into it. Sure, if I want to "sneak" in the property that might add a couple of seconds, but most people are just looking for the fastest way into a place. Smash the box off the wood with a hammer and now the latch is open. It really is just there to keep honest people honest.
What would really secure it would be a board or sheet of metal covering that gap on the outside since it opens inwards. And then the fancy combo latch that we’ll probably see on lockpickinglawyer soon.
How is that different than before? You didn’t move the gate to close the gap, so you can still put a hand through and flip the latch off like you did before the new lock install
@@AndrewThronImprovements that guard only protection from above. You can still come from below or get a stick with a curve. Will go right up there. The guard acting like a guiding rail
To add: Depending on the lock tolerances, it may be even easier to open the lock now if someone has a long thin piece of metal. Like a slice from a soda can. Look up lock picking lawyer or Mcnally for combination lock bypasses.
@@AndrewThronImprovements doesn’t seem secure since you can still attack the lever easily you did nothing for the hole in the fence that you stuck a stick through nor did you actually strengthen anything
