Greg Chevalier (Chevy)

My name is Greg Chevalier but feel free to call me by my nickname, Chevy. I'm a Canadian currently living down under in Australia 🇨🇦 🇦🇺

I found locksport in late 2023, and it immediately sparked my interest. Since then, I've become a black belt picker with LPU.

What started as a way to share my belt videos has turned into sharing any lock I get my hands on with the locksport community!

I've always enjoyed taking things apart and putting them back together, so expect to see a lot of gutting 😅 I recently started making picks as well, which has peaked my interest even more in the sport.

Feel free to leave comments in my videos because I love to respond and get engaged with the locksport community. If not, feel free to reach out to me by email or on Discord.

    @W3OY-RAY The guts were too cool not to show😅 I've picked an interactive but not the interactive+. A lot of nudging seems to go a long way I find, and that warding at the back can be a bit tricky. Good luck on the lock. I've had alot of fun learning dimple locks recently.

    I'm an automotive locksmith and oddly enough I hate picking locks. lol I have a question about this lock. I understand how the sidebar works but I am not understanding how the sliders work or what they are for. They live on top of the springs? The only high security locks I played with are Medeco's and Primus if you even want to include Primus in that category. Automotive locksmithing is so far removed from this stuff but I find it very interesting. I was very good at impressioning locks. For cars picking was very rare so I never really practiced. If I needed to pick something I had a 5 minute rule. If it didn't pick in 5 minutes the rotary pick came out. :)

  • @gchev4
    @gchev410 күн бұрын

    @scotts4125 when in doubt, drill it out 😅 I don't blame you for hating on picking after playing with locks all day lol so the sidebar itself is actually on the bottom at the 6 o'clock position. The sliders are unsprung and move right to left. A track on the key moves the sliders into position, and the nubs of the sliders are directly under the pin stacks. They have a bunch of false gates that look like serrations, that catch on the sidebar. They have 1 small true gate that when lined up depresses the "sidebar" which in this case is directly at the bottom of this lock. As far as I know there is 4 possible positions for the sliders and 5 sliders which makes for some good master keying possibities sinxe you could have multiple true gates. They're really just for an added layer of protection and also would help with master keying in very large systems. For example the victoria power industry uses these locks under the lockwood name in australia. Having both sliders and "pin in pin" stacks, it gives an incredible amount of master keying possibilities. I have yet to touch an automotive lock so they're alien to me 😅 thanks for watching Scott and I hope that answered your questions!

    @@gchev4 Thank you and perfectly explained. I would say cars are actually easier to get into thanks to the newer tools but a lot harder to steal them. All the security is electronic now. Some we don't actually make keys for them we program electronic fobs. They have emergency keys for the drivers door but the really odd thing is on many cars the "emergency" key doesn't work if the car battery is dead. We run between 80 to 150 calls per week. Just lost keys and lockouts. The dumber they make these cars the more calls we seem to get so I'm not complaining. It also amazes me how people buy used cars and only get one key/fob and never get a duplicate made. They call us when all is lost. I'm not complaining. People who do things like this are my customers. :)
