How to pick push lock Videos

Change code on this padlock is not possible.

No not really. I've never tried a Yeti. But I've tried some other ones. They have all opened with this technique. Try hard tension on the release button. If they lock up then, it's all a matter of balancing the right tension. Not to hard, not to light.. It takes a bit of practice. If your lock is slightly different. It might retail slightly different technique. Finding the right method for a new lock is quite fun. Good lock with your lock.N

+Jeff Moss Thanks. Got the idea from BosnianBill in his video on the same type of lock: //youtu.be/nfvVBn47rig It works surprisingly well once you get a feel for it.

It is a 381 and has the model 300 base.

See the description for links.

+ketatrypt Yes, thank you.

+doctorflipy It really doesnt matter which way the lock is oriented. The pins have springs that will give you the necessary feedback no matter the orientation of the lock. A lock will pick the same, no matter if its upside down, or right-side up. Hope this answers your question.

+Buttons Q Spain

Where do you live? Every lock in my house and in my business is just like the pic you posted. I rarely see the locks with the keyway upside down.

+Kevin Clinchy A video of this would be nice. 

It should be the same, but I find it more difficult because I never practice on them.

+Kevin Clinchy And it's harder to picklock or it's the same?

It's the same thing. Just imagine that picture flipped upside down.

Looks so equally different in color.

It looks like normal wear is keeping it from tarnishing.  That part is actually brass and the shackle is copper.

+Trevanion Yep, those are the exact same as mine.

These ones?//www.integy.com/st_prod.html?p_prodid=7807&p_catid=164&ratesortby=New#.VJiOFpAAA

Grazie...hai ragione lo yale in facilita non lo batte nessuno...servirà da monito a chi vorrà comprarlo!XD sempre sul mio canale mi cimento con un corbin 4 Dial piu impegnativo..se ti va dagli un occhiata,Ciao.

diciamo che e semplice...basta tirare indietro l'arco e girare i numeri,appena arrivi a quello giusto l'arco fara uno scatto indietro...e cosi via per tutti.

tra i lucchetti a combinazione quello che stai usando è uno dei più facilmente violabili..cmq anche se è facile bravo lo stesso ;)

i don't understand the language! :( can anyone translate what he has taught please?

meno male!XD

+Papa Gleb 100 years of life and look great, I fear that many of the locks that are made now, not exactly cheap, will not have that aspect within a century.Its design is very good, is not easy to attack a disc-shaped body and an arc is hidden by the chain. Moreover they are not easy to pick. Aesthetically they are very nice.From what I have seen are rare in Europe, but there is no rush, no fall sooner or later;-)))

+Tallan Pick Thanks again. These locks are very interesting and a great piece of lock history. It's crazy to think how secure they are considering their age

Please do not miss half. I did not know these locks, and after seeing your tutorial, I'm looking for them on ebay. Very interesting, very beautiful locks, and your video... simply perfect . Congratulations, I know them takes lot of work.Thank you very much for your work and your time.Happy picking mate!

+Tallan Pick Thanks mate. I am very much trying to find time to finish this series so hopefully in a few weeks or less part 3 will be up.

I will do Dude & your very welcome. N.

Thank you very much Nick. Your kind words are greatly appreciated :). Stayed tuned for the 3rd video, there is a crazy story I'll be sharing.

Haha yea I had to because the champion and newer yale weren't giving up to your tool/method. I'm just lucky the information is readily available or I would have been stuck, probably :)

Believe me you won't regret having a pancake lock. Particularly pancake locks as they stand out from other lever locks.

Slowly but surely. These locks are a bit rare especially in good working condition. Thanks for watching.

Fantastic! I started to make a tool based on your with the 18ga strip nails. I don't have the tension correct yet, but I can see that it will work. I hope to make a key for it from the tool once I get it working and opened. Good luck, sir, and I will keep an eye out. Cheers!

Thanks for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed it. Sorry for the delay w. Part 3. Life mixed with wild shipping stories caused me to put YouTube in the back seat but I'm hopeful in the very near future I'll have a chance to finish this series as well as share those stories.

Hey Dark, sorry for delay in my reply but I only seen your comment now. Don't know anyone selling pancake locks on KP but I got all of mine from eBay. I always ask a seller 2 questions: 1 does the shackle spring back up after being depressed or it is free floating and 2 looking into the keyway are all the levers equally lined up and stay at the same place or do they freely move. These 2 questions let me know the internal condition of the springs which are the only parts of the lock that break. You might also want to buy only from seller who accept returns. As for blanks, I make mine but you can purchase ready blanks as well.

Lauren, its very refreshing to hear you say that because these were two of the hardest videos I have yet made so thank you good sir.

Thanks for watching Jim. There are some postal delays so I'm still waiting for the lock to make the 3rd video in this series.

That's the plan :). I should get the lock for video 3 today so it should be up by tomorrow.

Thanks. These old lock put up a harder fight than many of the new generation locks. They sure don't make things like they used too.

Haha looking forward to your lock to make part 3 :)

She is safe and sound on display in my Victorian display cabinet with all my other antique locks ;o)))

Keep good care of the 4 lever. Iv been looking and trying to get me something aside from the standard 6 lever but it's hard to find one in good condition and that won't cost an arm plus shipping lol.

Thanks for the quick reply!

It's Solid, so you have to manually pull out the shackle. There is a spring loaded button there, but that is simply to help to help "eject" the keys and prevent the locking dog from moving. If someone were to try to shim this lock it would not work.
