LockPickingLawyer. Thank you for all your very informative videos. I've especially enjoyed the videos on the gun locks you've reviewed. This and the gun lock videos has influenced me on purchasing an Abus Granite 37RK/80. Do you have any tips on where these might be purchased from a reputable company? Also are there any counterfeits to watch out for? Lastly have you seen these with longer shackles? Thanks again for the great videos.

The reason i am interested is because for the first one you mentioned it is beyond your current picking capabilities, and for the second one you mentioned that it is among the hardest locks to pick in the world.

The roto loc is the best shipping container lock around. I used to see them on railroad cars all the time and it never really dawned on me why they rotated. But if you have something worth protecting then this will do it

Thank you for uploading this. I really enjoy listening to you speaking about locks and lockpicking with so much- well- love for the craftsmanship and challenge of the skill. Keep it up!

Some of these... it would be quicker just to cut around the lock. Inevitably the hardened lock is attached to stiff cheese

Matthew Trzcinski I locked up a massive gate (12' tall and 16' wide made from 3" square tubing and a 4x4 screen of 1/2" hardened drill rod for the mesh...) we used a super heavy duty chain with a pretty large American Lock w/a primus core in it mounted on the gate inside a shroud. When we were broken into, the people used a 8 wheel tractor the farmer left parked in a field up the road to snatch the gate off the hinges ( which were 1 inch hardened drill rod...) I said that to say this, get used to the fact you can't win them all, if someone wants in bad enough, they will probably get in unless less you have armed guards posted 24/7. You can deter, but they may still win.

@@wb5mgr that's still impressive security when it takes a giant tractor to defeat it. That's the difference.

As a retired attorney, I find your videos SO REFRESHING despite the otherwise banal subject matter. Well spoken, pragmatic, thoughtful, analytical, and incisive -- unlike most other YT intellectual dwarfs who simply point a GoPro at themselves, and babble incessantly about subjects with little factual basis (aside from personal experience). All my best wishing you much success!

All fantastic padlocks featured here. I personally use an Abloy PL350 for locking up my motorcycle with a 12mm Peweg hardened chain. The PL350 is just a bit smaller than the PL362 and has a fully exposed shackle, but with all Protec core goodness intact. It's a lovely hunk of mechanical engineering. Very smooth to open and close.

Didn't know Sargent & Greenleaf were involved with padlocks. In the military, the S & G combination safe dial was routinely used on safes or vault doors to secure classified materials/equipment (at least in the 1970s, 80s, and 90s).

@vasky22

2 жыл бұрын

necropost, but those S&G padlocks used to secure most Army armsrooms, along with a remotely monitored alarm system. So it is that lock holding perhaps 100-150 ARs, pistols, grenade launchers, machine guns, etc. Although usually not much ammo beyond perhaps a mag or 2 for a guard when the alarm craps out.

@joelee2371

S&G also had a combination padlock that we used on mobile crypto safes in the 60s

At this point of beefy and pricey, you better got valuable things to store, and not just some Oreos 🤣

LockPickingLawyer: What about the Laclede ? When I sought out Pewag security chain, I was directed to the Laclede "13 mm Lockdown Security Chain & Padlock kit." I don't know much about either that padlock or chain. Would love to hear your impressions or even see some videos where you test the padlock & chain. I obtained mine from a rigging supply co.

after seeing this video, i want to buy some of these locks to throw on the shelf because they look so amazing.

Now I know what locks to buy, thank you LPL!

Very impressed with the shipping container lock. Absolutely gorgeous!

Should make merch saying "pick resistant but not overly so"

I would have liked to have heard the price of each as you listed them. 1. $120 (Amazon, $85 used) 2. $275 + $31 shipping (Amazon) 3. $432 (direct from mfg) 4. $160 (used, eBay) 5. n/a 6. n/a (find a dealer) 7. $116 (Amazon) 8. $240 (direct from mfg) 9. $180 (mfg direct) 10. (arms room door - LOL) 11. $180 (shipping from UK would be brutal!)

Why is this so addictive and captivating? I have no desire to pick a lock.

That Sargent and Greenleaf lock is the kind we used on the ship's armory and magazines in the US Navy. I always thought that was way too heavy of a lock. Nice to see it again.

I need that Squire lock for my lunchbox so when my co-workers try to steal my lunch they don't get sick from the wife's cooking she packed me.

LockPickingLawyer and another youtuber who does lock videos both have said the Stanley 60mm lock is VERY tough... it is $33. Where I live, people picking locks isn't the problem, its people prying, hitting or cutting them. This will stand up to most of that very well. From my research, you would need to jump up to a $100 lock to get a better lock than the Stanley. Here is the link: www.amazon.com/Stanley-Hardware-S828-160-Shrouded-Hardened/dp/B001V5IYT2

“ This lock is extremely pick resistant..To see me pick this lock, see video number ____” 😂
