Wow I've been into the lock sport for 6 years now (time of update 2020) well I still love locks play, clean and even annoy people with them. Here I will annoy only you by picking some of them and exposing flaws and maybe some other fud regarding locks.
(2014ish) I got into lock sport so I created yet another lock picking channel just for fun. The videos I post here are informational only which would give you an idea how some locks work and what we can do to open them. I do this for fun and on my own locks or locks that were presented to me with the right to open them.
I take no responsibility if you try this at home or on an unauthorized lock and something goes wrong.
Should you want to contact me via e-mail use the channel name - multivde AT gmail DOT com
Just picked this one open. Thanks for the tip on pushing on the actuator! That helped me to get an open. I did get a false set like that multiple times but never an open and that push really did the magic 😎
Posiblemente algun dia, pero ahora no hago videos nuevos, porque no tengo suficiente tiempo. Ah y este candado si me recuerdo correcto, no lo tengo por que ya regalo a un amigo. Saludos de Viena
I didn't have a tool but i was able to use a light to see when they go flat. (thanks to another 3min video that gave the idea) Once you have the flat code (9070) then you simply roll that flat section to the opposite side. (4525) I have this same mooncode lock also from years ago. This video reminded me how it opens to check if my combo is right. (i was pulling the bar. had to go through some combos again. lol) Also i only found 3 flat sections since i tried getting a tool in the first digit at first and scratched it up making it harder to see. It's easy enough to trial error the last digit. You just need to have the other 3 digits offset correct. At worst it'd be a 2 digit lock. Also finding the flat area is more noticeable since the digit before/after will have the upper/lower half cut off because of the flat area. It's like seeing lower teeth, wide open mouth, upper teeth. lol
I whish I had seen your performance before buying this lock. Now I must hope that thieves in my area are not good at picking, and get a second lock. Thanks for the video.
@@MultiVde Update: thieves tried to cut the bars of my ABUS bordo 5900 classic but failed. They just scratched the black coating, so the lock did work against these thieves. In my area the majority seem to be cut and run as you say, and I think that closing the lock with the key facing downwards make it harder to pick it, especially if it is close to the ground.
What is the lock body made of though considering picking is an unlikely threat the majority of cases?. I would use this lock for low security myself or to lock the wheels to the frame. I would rather use it with the Plus core if I was concerned about picking. But for a pin tumbler I hope they at least used security pins.
Abus priced this to make people believe it must be a secure lock because of the expensive price tag. This is a psychological marketing ploy and should be illegal as it is deceptive pricing. Well picked with that bitting too, cheers
Good to see you post again! I know how you feel, it's a shame when when you put down good money on what think is a secure lock only to be disappointed.
Got exactly the same lock (except the color - mine is blue but that probably doesn't matter) and tried to find the combination with your suggestions, but unfortunately wasn't able to open the lock. Spent an hour or two (the time flies when you're having fun :D) listening to the 'ticks'. Even after I received the code from support I wasn't able to hear nor feel any difference when setting the proper number/numbers. Probably I'm not skilled enough, or they've changed something.
Recently I bought a bunch of these locks (with complete casing, with coin operation), and they happenened to include some master keys. So I fiddled around with it, and noticed some interesting things. The first deep set you got is actually the set you get when normally using a master-key. This moves the black locking ring on the back which holds the lock in place, to be able to remove the lock from its casing and to replace the cillinder (for when a key gets lost or something). You can get this action when you insert the master-key OR if you put in the regular key, and push the last pin from the back of the lock manually (there is a visible pin you can push/pull down). The regular key is 1 pin shorter than the master-key. The last pin is for keeping the lock in place. You should try it, an pay attention to the back of the lock. The half set makes much more sense when the cillinder is in its appropriate casing. Maybe you got different series cillinder, but there should be a master-key override to remove the cillinder.
Not a bro, and even if you'd post a few comments I do live outside of youtube and dont stare so much at the channel...so patience...bro. To your question I use filed down southord dimple picks. Best once, have none broken till now. Tension for dimple lock usually heavy one.
Omg . I had not use my lock in years. And tryed the number i thought it was with no joy. I used sliver off a coke can as a shim. And flowed the process in the video. And it worked It was the number i started off with , but i forgot you have to pull the door forward before you pull the lock up. Thank you saved me buying a replacement 🙌
You ca totally repair it. dont bin it please would be a waste. It will take some time to figure it out but it can be saved. If you want you can look for a local lockpicking club around where you live and they can assist. If you also want send it my way and i can try and fix it and send it back to you. Key is avaiable I assume?
Hello, thanks for the video, im from mexico, can you give me advice what door lock with no lever or handle only key, you recommend instead? similar to this model for high security?
Yes that was in Japan :) We had a short break and went to the side where there were less people and accidently stumbled upon this guy - was awesome to see him how he handled the ice.
