BiLock - Pick & Gut 

Ha! Nobody cared!

@@septclues🤣still nobody

Thanks Hux! Those low cuts do make things tricky!

Thanks Das! I really appreciate your watching! What kinds of locks are you working on?

I'm on Yale euro's ,Assa twin Euro with side bar (very hard), Assa ovals and assortment of padlocks 🔐

Thanks Justin! I appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment. Let me know if I can help as you dive into some higher end locks :)

Thanks for saying that man! I had a LOT of fun wit that part... Seriously, I probably did twenty takes of just those little segments before I got it to the point I was happy with it. Part of the fun for me is learning to do little tricks like that, LOL

That was cool! ......With authority!

Whew... It's scary when its my own lock, but diving into another person's lock is really stressful! Glad I was able to get it apart and back together without anything flying across the room and getting lost.

Thanks BLP! I miss you man! Thanks for watching dude 👍🔐

Thanks man! I really appreciate the kind words. This one isolated pretty well, so I was really able to pick it just like it was two locks in one.If I rotated it CW, the left side bound up first, and if I rotated it CCW, it was the right. Here and there I would drop something on the other side and have to go back and get it, but generally careful attention to counterrotation prevented it and I could isolate the sides. It was a very fun lock to pick. Thanks 4 watchin'!

tumbl3r I know it might be hard your concentrating amazing pick I see these locks all the time. but you could walk us through what you are feeling what the pins are doing if you drop a pin what pin your on stuff like that. Great video

Thanks Larry! I'm glad it made sense. Sometimes I worry that I'm not very good at explaining things, so I really appreciate your saying that 🔓👍

Thanks man! I really appreciate that :) I really enjoy your videos as well 🔓👍. Let's see... Tension... Medium??? Medium Light??? Tension is so subjective and honestly I almost never just use a fixed tension. It's almost always highly variable. I can say that when picking out of false gates, they act a lot like spools, and the tension required to do that is about the same. When I'm not lifting pins out of false gates, the tension is a bit higher than that. I hope that helps.... I was really nervous gutting this lock. It's scary diving into a new lock that I own, but doing it with a friend's lock is another level entirely. I was so afraid I'd lose a spring or pin, LOL. Thanks for watching man! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks so much, Tim! I'm proud to have earned your subscription, and I'm glad you enjoy the videos :) I really like to give away a lock at the end of each video, but I had run out and only just recently got some more in. I will definitely be giving one away on my next video.

Thanks mate! This one was super fun. It was a tricky lock that gave lots of great feedback. I really had fun with it!

Thanks man! I really appreciate your watching, and I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Leon's lockpad They are very common in the high security market in Australia and U.S.A. This is a generation 1, gen 2 has a 13 element and has not been picked on camera to my knowledge

Thank man! These locks are super fun to pick... Much more so than I imagined they would be. Lots of great feedback. So these pins don't actually rotate like the ones in the Medecos. I probably should have mentioned that when I was comparing the two. When you see me pushing and pulling the pick, I'm sweeping the pins to test for "jiggle". That helps tell me if they are properly set into a true gate or stuck in a false one.

Thanks man! And thanks for giving me the motivation to pick one of these things. As for how they rank against the ASSA Twin, it's hard to say only having picked this one, but I honestly would not even put them in the same category. The ASSA Twin is far FAR more difficult. That said, this is a tricky lock, and I believe it is a very good design. If I had to rank it, I'd place it somewhere around the Medeco Duracam. My goal in picking locks is never to show that they are insecure, but rather to explore and marvel at the beautiful engineering that goes into them.

tumbl3r if your willing to part with one of your twins I have a few different certified Bilocks with decent bidding if your interested? I would love to watch your skills on picking one of mine blind, I'm not 100% sure but I might be able to obtain a 2nd gen with the active element.

I'd trade an ASSA Twin 6000, but the others (Ovals and KIKs) are not something I really want to swap. I'd like to keep those for my personal collection.

Thanks man! I think this might have only been the second video I've used it in. For some reason this lock just wanted the diamond, LOL

Thanks man! I'm glad the explanation made sense... I sometimes wonder if I'm any good at explaining things, LOL. So the cam locks have five pins that need to be lifted and rotated, while these have twelve that only need to be lifted. Having only this one to go by, it's hard to really say for sure, but I think these are somewhat tougher than the normal Medeco cam locks. Probably more on par with the likes of the Duracam you sent me. In fact, I think the first open on this took me just about the same amount of time as the Duracam.

Cool, fair enough. Oh yeah about the Duracam... I got extra keys for it. I will be sending out one for your Duracam tomorrow. 🤗

Dude! Thank you so much!!! Please let me know how much I owe you. If you email me with a PayPal account I'll shoot it over to you.

tumbl3r I will make up a trade package for you and I will include the key with it... Anything else you been looking for? I might be able to help. Sound good bud?

Man! I hate to decline, but I am completely out of trading material right now. If you can hang on a week or so, I might have the material to do that. Hang onto the key for now, and I'll hit you up when some things get in.

Thanks Randy! If this one was mine, I'd send it your way. I'll let you know if I run across another one.

Check here occasionally, I picked one up from there for a cheap price. securitysnobs.com/Large-Lot-Locks/

Bernie Elston Is it just the core or is it installed in s door or other lock mechanism? If it's just the core, you can just unscrew or unclip the back and pull the plug. If it's in a lock mechanism and you can't get it out, picking might be the only non destructive option.

tumbl3r its a door to my shop that Im now locked out of. Other keys dont work, so its the lock. the lock looks like this goo.gl/images/MFi1fA

I would try lubricating the lock and see if that helps get your key to work. Might be a slider stuck high or something like that. If that doesn't work, it's likely a locksmith will drill it. Lubricate it, and try inserting / extracting your key several times very quickly. This is, quite honestly, not a lock that many people can pick, so there is really next to no chance that a new picker would be able to pick it open.

I tried wd40 & it didnt help. It seems like the problem is that the whole lock is loose. Can try inserting quickly

If the plug turns and the lock doesn't open, it's going to take a locksmith to fix. I was working under the assumption that the plug was not turning.

Stephanie Smith, its the "old" one or Gen 1 as they call it. Gen 2 is the current version. Gen 1 is still not easy to pick, not many ppl can do it still.

I've seen Bosnianbill pick one and someone mentioned they they knew the type2 had never been picked before and I can't find any videos of it being picked so far.
