Lmao as weird as that is at a glance, I'm pretty sure he's said he does professional lock picking, so it's no weirder than a Blacksmith having a Forge or a carpenter having a jigsaw
You wouldn't hear it, all he has to do is record from that camera, and slowly insert it I to the lock. The video can be read and a key can be made away from the house
A few years back I bought a second hand motorbike from a city a few hundred kays away. While driving back, the keys fell out of the ignition without me noticing. I called the local locksmith (in the town I'd stopped for gas) and he arrived with a small toolkit. He took out a flashlight and started to peer into the lock. He then produced a blank key and what looked like a pair of pliers. He then, from sight alone, proceeded to cut me a brand new key in under 10 minutes by hand. I believe it was this event that provoked my interest in non-destructive openings and lead me to become a subscriber of a lock-picking channel...
You sir found a real locksmith and that could actually do motorcycles lol I'm in the industry so.. I can say there's less guys out there that know how to do what he did.. good job finding a real locksmith lol
This is the locksmith you recommended to your friends. An artisan that is honest. Any lower skilled locksmith skips to the destruction of the lock and charges you for a new one with installation.
Yeah, but no. This video was basically him cutting a key for a lock. Take the key making out and it's really no longer than any of his other videos. lol
Hey, everybody needs a hobby. If you're interested in busting into peoples houses, you might as well have a defence strategy planned to keep out of jail
@@adtrlthegamer7449 Pretty much, but then again how many thieves are going to use a specialized camera and then to cut a key and have the equipment laying around to do so? The decoder camera cost over $340 alone? Unless they are very professional and something very valuable behind the door, or gate which if it is then sure be way more secure then just a pad lock? Unless they not looking to steal but break into in for other reasons like to go after someone and don’t want to force entrance Plus locksmiths already use devices similar or decoder tools already.
Yeah, if someone uses a wifi camera on your door, then has one of these machines to cut a key...I have bad news for you. They're getting in your house no matter what...it doesn't matter what kind of lock you have.
The part of this I found the most interesting was actually the key cutting machine. I've never seen one up close and overhead before. Some years ago I dabbled at making my own keys with a set of blanks, gauges and a hand nibbling tool. It was frustrating, laborious and, in my hands at least, I had a high error rate with incorrectly cut blanks outnumbering my successes. Your machine embarrasses my pitiful efforts.
@@jimmysparks315 I tried again since leaving the earlier comment and, using the Albert Lebel method with my Lishi nibbler tool - take smaller bites, be patient and be prepared to sacrifice lots of blanks as I practice - I had more success. It's still tricky to cut Yale and similar blanks (the formats usually found here in the UK) with that tool, but it can be done.
@@Adrian-dl9nb could, but it's more that his lawyering knowledge keeps him in the know on what's legal and what isn't, what loopholes exist and such. Once he's in prison, that knowledge doesn't help him very much anymore now does it? ;)
@@DxBlack based on timing I believe it's possible for a comment to show as unedited as long as there are no replies to it yet - possible (although unlikely) kult had watched the video, loaded the old comment, and had it edited prior to him typing a response. In any case, that's all I have for you today. If you have any questions or comments about this comment, please reply below, and as always, have a nice day.
The more I watch this channel the more I realize that locks are truly there to keep the honest people honest. Anyone intent on getting in can quickly do so in numerous ways, without having to break the door down or attempt to kick it in. Think I'll invest in some maglocks with hidden proximity sensors (or something along those lines) and leave the regular locks as dummies so nobody will even know about the maglocks.
yep fro all the shit masterlock gets 99% of theives will just cut it or Break around the lock. So yes masterlocks are crap. but also masterlocks are cheap and deter the vast majority.
Slower than picking, but a nifty solution for replacing a lost key without destroying the lock. Probably only economic for expensive locks, in a commercial application.
@@lairdcummings9092 It's also worth noting that the Quikset Smart Key system is reykeyable without effort, if you have the current key all you need is a new key, so for taking possession of a premises this sort of action is perfect, no new locks needed.
Nah, check out his video on the Bowley lock. He tried pretty damn hard to get into that one and failed so bad he didn't even show an attempt on camera.
I'm sure he had some practice in with this lock and cutting the key, (knowing what cuts to make before the video) but regardless it's still impressive!! Practice with this one single lock would just make it so you could do it with any of these locks in that amount of time....
As an expert in 3D printing and CNC technology I'm surprised that you folks haven't caught up. For the fun of it, I 3D printed a working key for one of my locks. If you have the numbers for a particular lock it should be possible to "add" a blank key object file with each of the correct cylinder offset object files then slice/print the resulting toolpath file. You could either print it on a metal (or even plastic) 3D printer or mill it using a CNC machine from metal, for example.
I love that he cuts the key and then uses it to open the lock all in one continuous shot. Like no matter how skilled he shows us he is, he still wants to make sure no one can claim he's doing camera tricks.
If you’ve seen his over 100 videos on lock picking & the difficulty of some of those locks, then there’s no doubt. He don’t need the key making m/c to open this simple lock.
A man and his toys. When I started my career, was single with a nice paycheck I learned the mantra “he who dies with the most toys wins”. I love this channel and your dedication to your hobby!
Driving to college in the 80s I locked my keys in the car. I called a locksmith to get me in. After he was done I showed him how my keys were on the dash board. He said if I let him try something he would cut my bill in half. We proceeded to look at the keys trough the window and used a handheld key cutter and made a key. It didn't work on the first cut so he eyeballed it again and made one modification and it worked.
LPL: "Hello, this is the Lock-Picking..." Somebody in the background: *clears throat* LPL: "This is the Key-Making Lawyer, and today a court ordered me to show you how to legally open a door..."
These are kind of required for a professional locksmith. When I can get a garage built I can then start stocking up for running my own business, and I've one eyed up.
Just discovered your channel and my mind is blown! Here I am thinking of an episode of the A-Team when the crew had to take an impression of a key in order to replicate it and it worked, that blew my mind as a 9-year old kid and that memory still sticks with me today lol! Love your channel and you have a new fan!
Cool gadgets, I remember when a young teen about 40 years ago and my parents would occasionally take away my car key. Being a defiant kid and handy with tools, I then drew around the actual key on a sheet of aluminum and marked the grooves. I rough cut then hand filed a key cutting key slots with my Dremel tool and a guide, after a bit more filing the key worked perfectly! I just wanted to see if I could do it and I did, lol. 😎👍
My first car, a 61 Buick Special, the ignition switch would turn without a key. It had a lock position, but I never used it. I also would always lock the door by reaching through the vent window and pushing the handle forward.
@@PanduPoluan welp color me surprised he's actually a lawyer. Welp that doesn't mean he isn't currently a locksmith. Well he technically is just not a professional. But I was talking professional not as a hobby.
It strange... no locksmith I have ever been to has been able to cut a key perfectly the first time. It often takes them over an hour of re-adjustment to produce a key that works.
That's why I felt uncomfortable watching this video I don't use padlocks my buildings are lag bolted shut over the last dozen years I've found a couple lag bolts partially unscrewed thieves are lazy and a dozen 4 inch lag bolts takes some time to unscrew unless you use a cordless drill I rarely open these buildings except during growing season
The machine he used is very different from a standard key cutting machine. That one is made to cut a key without an original. Most key cutting machines are even simpler to use. I'm sure there are videos showing how to use standard key cutters.
My good friend here in Salt Lake City is the original designer of the tool. I'm the proud owner of the prototype he gifted me. BosnianBill gives accolades to the very same good friend as being one of the best lockpickers in the world. Shout out Chessguy125 on your design.
I'm impressed at how in intuitive that key-cutting machine is to use. Just from watching you use it without explanation, I think I'd be able to successfully cut a key too!
When I was working for an Oldsmobile dealership , The parts department had a hand operated key cutter that a depth gauge that could be set for whatever pin was being cut . With a squeeze of the handles a new key could be made using some code that was in a manufacturers manual. AND ....it was cordless!
And this isn't a copy, it's a perfect new key. Copies degrade with every generation of copy but this is a key origination machine that is usually used when repining a lock
The way he immediately uses his freshly cut key to unlock the padlock literally without saying anything actually made me laugh. Oozing confidence he is!
@@AdamLaRosa I prefer to deconstruct videos on You Tube. So many channels are completely fake. Actually LPL is one of the genuine channels with real content, so you may even get to see that first cut of the key not working here (that's if it ever happened). But there are many people putting out stuff pretending it is real and what is more the retarded portion of their viewers believe it is real! It is my job to help expose and educate these people. So rather than "revelling in mysteries" , I expose the fakers. It's just a different approach. I'm not saying your approach is wrong, but life would be boring if we all did and acted the same!
@@PreservationEnthusiast A lot of channels will also make videos that are modeled after TV and pretend like they got it perfect on the first try. Take FaZe for instance, trickshots take many tries when the enemy is just standing still and for the most part the other players are likely trying to out gun the FaZe boys.
That lock popping open with the freshly-made key is one of the most satisfying things I've ever seen on this channel - thanks for sharing that process.
As a locksmith I prefer to drill the core of smartkey lock, it takes less than a minute. ( Smartkey core are really cheap, so I leave the deadbolt and only replace the core that I drilled) than if client had many copies of their Keys in circulation, I take their existing keys and rekey the lock in 30 seconds since its smartkey. At the end its faster and less expensive for the customer since we charge Time. It usually takes about 15 minutes to complete these calls Also where I live it can be -30° so client and I really wants to be done as quickly as possible
I've invented a electric key pick with quick changing heads for various lock brands/types. It works through oscillation and can open almost any lock within a second using a similar principle to a bump key.
You did get to see just about everything it does though. Set the position and cut the depth. He was a little artsy going left and right of center by a millimeter or so on each position so I'd like to hear him talk through it, too.
Seems pretty intuitive; a cutting burr, a burnishing wheel, and a pair of feed screws associated with an exchangeable template card. A bit more advanced than the old key cutting machines I used as a kid, but recognizable.
It looks really simple, I expected something much more complex actually. It seems that the right knob controls the side to side movement, which is shown by the bottom needle (and the blue card gives a scale to let you know in front of which position you're at). The bottom knob controls the "depth" of the cut, shown by the top needle. If you want to do a 4 cut in position 3, put the bottom needle to 3, then the top needle to 4, and then move the key side to side a bit (shown by the smaller lines on the bottom scale) to make the cut wide enough.
@@robertkribs9513 you can see the left and right of each position marked on the scale. You probably have to make the cuts wide enough, or the key would bind a lot.
Years ago I lost my motorcycle key and I called a locksmith who looked down the keyway with the sort of thing that doctors look in your ears with and had me a replacement key in less than five minutes. For the average man in the street to see that done blew my mind.
There are a LOT of comments from people saying they've never seen a key cutting machine work. This is NOT a standard key-copying machine. It is used for making keys with an original to copy from and is more technical than a standard key copying machine.
Neighbor has one of these and i had to completely dissasemble it after failing to pick it for a few minutes in order to manually rekey it. It was pretty easy to do, and I'd highly recommend using these on your house, airb&b, and rental!
This is now one of my favorite LPL videos. I don’t know why but it’s just extremely satisfying and such a smart method of beating the lock. My absolute favorite videos from LPL are his destructive entry videos, especially the Ramset ones, but this is my favorite non destructive video.
That is a very nice machine. I'm sure the hours that it took to pay for it were worth it. I've always enjoyed your videos, but this one really stands out to me for some reason. Excellent job!
wild that these things are so expensive! The majority of the unit is made from the same parts as those $30 wifi microscope cameras you can get from Amazon.
Awesome, I've been looking at this tool for a bit, I can see how this would save a lot of time. And you can charge the customer for the code to the lock!
in fact the human brain is main to hold about 4 information at the same time max, numbers when defined as indiviual information are hard to remenber because you can't manage more than 4 at once but if somhow you get them to be one single information it becomes really easy. for exemple : 5184 is hard to remember, but things like "2077" or "1945" "2020" have the same amount of numbers yet it's easier to remember since it realates to a single information : a year. also a simple trick to help you get up to 5 information at once is to consider the fifth one as an "intruder" like the one which is different from the rest. fin a similarity among the 4 information you remember and then th fifth one is the one which doesn't have this similarity. also it helps when you are counting number, on a dice fo exemple, the hardest face to identifie quickly is th 5 since you're brain can't recognise it and count it immediatly. the 6 is easy since you can see 2 ligne of 3 and admitedly the 5 having such a particular shape is easy enought but anyway and easy way to identifie the noumber of element when they are 5 is to identifie a first pack od 4 and then you see that there's only one left, so 5. brain is stupid and can't manage past 4 but brain is so stupid you can trick it in doing things that it can't normaly do.
This guy at my work, he'd forget his key many times for his tool box. I took his key, and a piece of metal, used Die Blueing on the metal, used my scriber to copy the shape of his key. Ground it down close with a bench grinder and then the rest with my tiny file. The lock worked... actually it felt much better than the original at opening his box. We left the spare in my box so it's there all the time incase he forgets. I know that I can do this stuff all by hand. I am use to filing things to within 0.001" usually just by eye, cuz I'm a Tool & Die Maker, we've got to be able to do that or others will think we suck at filing.
The lock you cant pick either open is Iloq. And thats because it works not only mechanically but also has internal code which has to match with the lock base key to open.
