(990) Sparrows Double Door Tool (DDT) Bypass 

That explains why there is never any good office coffee.

"stay safe, stay leg..." "oh is that coffee?"

It's unbelievable how informative your vids are. Thanks for posting.

Where is the Stay legal part?

Not only a demo on door by-passes, but we see a crime in progress, coffee pilfering! Outstanding.

This and the ripcord are both great. Sparrows is really on the cutting edge these days.

2 Methods to bypass similar doors with motion sensors to exit instead of crash-bars: -take a can of compressed air with the small tube, hold upside down and spray a cloud between the doors up towards the sensor. -take a large piece of cardboard with a "flap" and slide up between the doors.

I was looking for a video on this tool a couple of days ago perfect timing.

Great review. As a locksmith I have had to make my own tool similar to that one. I may buy the Sparrows one to test it myself.

I'm liking this new series "How to break into the DOD".

Good to see the humour bill

"If you don't know what this is you don't need it 😂

The end made me giggle. I have not laughed in such a manner in some time. Thanks, and thank you for keep ing us up to date on new findings.

I really enjoy your refreshing style. Thank you.

All that for a decent coffee ☕️ It is getting cold out 🤷🏻‍♂️🤣

love your information, to look at this tool in a catalog, and they say if ya don't know what it does, ya don't need it is bull. I want to know for GP. Thank you for sharing Mr Bill

I'm just happy I was able to make on of these. Tested it on a door that was open wide but haven't done so on a door this is made for though.

Hilarious ending! Love from Canada!

Glad you're back

Nice demo, Bill.

Great video! Awesome tool

Love it, always a pleasure Bill, *****

Fantastic Video Bill +Bosnianbill . I love how the stay legal just went out the window when it came down to the coffee. LOL. Keep up the great work. Nick.

Thanks Bill

I like that tool Bill, nice stuff buddy.

Bill, i just wanted to say thanks, for getting me into lock sport, and being someone we all can look up to. This is my new youtube name. And im just starting to exchange challenge locks with others on youtube. Im sure ill end up making videos. It seams inevitable.......And it all started with your videos. So thanks!.

Bill, on the road! Fun!

Nice practical video.

So much for the "Stay safe, Stay legal" bit.

Thanks Bill!

THANKS FOR SHOWING THE GREAT VIDEO. 💥💥💥💥💥

love the videos

Bill encouraging coffee aquisition!!! Very nice 👍🙂 I just saw it listed and read exactly what Bill mentioned. they say if you don't know what it is for you don't need it ROFL 🤣

Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU!!!!! "building managers don't like having to check their doors".... OH YES.... and I can PERSONALLY testify to the struggle of secure vs. "I want YOU to make it secure, but I don't want to have to do my job"... and don't get me started on the arguments about the cost of a coordinated closer system... (which, you really ONLY need if you don't want to do tests and maintenance occasionally on standard closers... all it takes is an hex wrench, a short step ladder, and about ten minutes, IF they're REALLY out of tune WTF is the big deal???... other than laziness of course.) I made something very similar to these myself years ago on the fly out of an MCOT tool (desperation played a part as well) to do an unlock where I could just NOT pick it (STILL don't know why, drives me nuts not knowing)... Liked the idea so much I still carry it in my vehicle... I've shown customers this exploit, I don't know HOW many times trying to make my case for coordinated closer systems, or at the VERY least an addition to a building maintenance checks (closers are NOT hard to time properly, no special tools needed, but they have to be checked) so that a guard can be installed.... They always say the same thing.... "well, but you're a locksmith, it's your JOB to know this stuff.... it's not like it's public knowledge.... Meanwhile, when I "invented" my version of the tool, that wasn't "magic locksmith knowledge"... just problems solving (and again, desperation) Here it is folks... on youtube... Free and easily accessible... for free... to everyone... and the tool is both easy to buy and easy to make (something that will get the job done)... AND requires NO special skill or practice to use... The days of "security by obscurity" are over.... The genie's out of the box, the tools are available to anyone... Get the good hardware, properly installed, and follow your security plan... OR eventually, you're gonna get compromised. THANK YOU for making video that makes the argument a LITTLE more winable for me in the future... (hopefully)

funny, I seen it on Sparrows yesterday and had no idea..guess I need one now...

I see how you are, using your skills to steal creamer! Great video!!

Great Bypass Tool ;)

That's neat! Very similar to automotive entry concept on most vehicles. Except for bmws. They gotta be different.

I love this foo

Haha really liked this video, you should do more out of the lab type of videos =)

Cool tool

great vid bill

Many pass doors of that type have a REX (Request to EXit sensor) so that push to exit senses a person and shunts the alarm. By opening the door push-bar but not triggering the REX an audible alarm usually sounds.

Lol..!!! 🤣 LOVED the end of the video how y'gotta get into a place for some coffee..!!!! ☕☕🤣

awesome!

3:44 A pair of commercial doors with Rim Panic hardware will have a mullion bar in the middle, blocking the bypass tool. Look for doors with surface mounted or concealed vertical rods. The push bars are different.

Thought we were going to catch your face in the reflection! Good work

Executive coffee is the best coffee! =D

That ending though! hahaha

One heck of a good reason to get past that door gotta have coffee

Have never seen a jam-less crash bar door like this. what would work on a standard crashbar door w/o that gap?

used to be able to get into the front door of the dorms by sliding a piece of paper between the doors towards the top to activate the motion sender from the inside to simulate someone trying to leave and unlock the door

Nice intro

1:45 There is a common piece of door hardware that does this task. Google "fire door coordinator" Astragals are common as they allow for positive seal against smoke/oxygen suppy

So much for staying legal...

Is that Bosnian Towers?

Bill how would this work on the standard jam style door frame like the wood one you showed? How does that tool navigate around the jam? You demonstrated it with the door open but I don't see it working with the door closed....

enjoy the coffee lol

Criminals live this!

as close as we will get to a bosnian bill face reveal xD

I want that coffee.

There are firedoors without the gap though, if you need more security: At my workplace, the door-closing mechanism has a lever that will not allow the door with the gap-cover to fully close until the other side has closed, thereby activating the lever and releasing the gap-cover-door. That adds another mechanism that can break of course, so it's always a tradeoff depending on what you're protecting and how nice it should look. And even with our extra secure doors at my work, we are required to lock everything with business value into cupboards, so it's not like those doors are your only line of security. Except for the genius who forgot to properly secure their gorram coffee!

Mystery of the disappearing coffee solved, I'm sure. I can only imagine the questions asked upon your request to make that video... lol

that dark majic is good but if you like dark roast check out double black diamond. keurig killed it with that coffee .if you're a coffee guy you gotta check it out

Sparrows was doing some clever marketing by saying if you don't know what it is, you don't need it. No one knows what ddt stands for here, until they go looking, because they were told it was none of their business. A subtle challenge, guaranteed to create some interest.

Where can I get this one?

What about soda/snack machine locks?

We call that a "J-tool" in the fire service. I've never seen one actually used though. Perdy neet

I love these BosnianLockTubeLockBillLab videos PICK A FACKIN NAME ALREADY

awesome idea but not sure how it would work on double doors with panic bars and a center post, the center post would block the tool

I need to make me one for the FD.

On the second crash door, the bolt is recessed from the edge of the door. My guess would be this allows the door to cover part of the post, hence no straight gap to put the DDT through. Is that why you showed it with an open door, Bill? ;) If the door covers the post on all sides (on the top and the bottom too), a way of opening is drilling a hole underneath the crash bar, sticking an umbrella through that hole, opening it and pulling. Do you know of a non-destructive way of accomplishing the same?

he stole the executive coffee that's not legal 😂

1:02 - I had thought that in the event of a power failure the doors would UNlock, not "lock down the doors". I know the systems can be setup either way. I had thought the code, at least in most of the U.S., was to unlock the doors. Does anyone know?

does this work with the aircan to bypass a request to exit sensor

What's the name of the song at the end ?

you didn't say stay safe stay legal!!!!!!!! *mind explodes*

forget to stay legal, coffee is on the line

I can't help thinking that the bypass tool is really just a fancy wire coat-hanger. :P Can't say I've seen many doors fitted with crash bars in South Africa.

Go bill go🤣

don't need one, I've opened many firedoor pushbars with a plumbers brazing rod (three bend's, first two at 90 degrees and the third bent down at 45 degrees at 90 degrees to the others). cheap as chips and available at any hardware store.

We used to use something similar to open dead bolted hotel rooms, but from the bottom. Anyone guess how a hotel room could be dead bolted with no one home?

Lmao, as a working locksmith I could definitely see myself going to jail for unauthorized coffee procurement 😆😆😆

So for the people who have doors like this, is there any way to protect against it other than adding a steel plate in the middle?

Lol glad you can get permission to play in these places they don't like most pickers asking to play with there locks and security lol

Crash bar door has a lip Then that took won’t work. Door jam lip contour. What’s the alternative?

Wow..

Hahaha face at 1.09!!

Interesting things you can learn on youtube :D LOL

What if it’s a single door? I came across one the other day and it had me wondering. You obviously can’t use this but it’s a single door against a frame that can’t fit this tool but it has a crash bar on the other side.

At least he did not take the good coffee mug.

Interesting herculite hardware.

This will open the door, but a good system would still alarm. The door alarm is always active, but when you stand next to the door, on the inside, to push the crash bar you trip a sensor that shunts the alarm while you exit. Using this type of bypass, from the outside, will not shunt the alarm. You'll get in but the alarm will trip. . . Stay safe, stay legal.

Bill was only worried about others safety during zombie attack. Zombies would never test Bill. They know better 😂

yeah but can I put in my case

will not work on the second bar type

'yeah, I'm takin' that too!' s.s./s.l.. lol

I once did the jedi wave for coffee.

Stay Legal. Stay Safe. Grab all the coffee you can.

Stay safe! Stay legal! Take the coffee! ;-)
