This lovely little safe didn't open on the combination numbers that were supplied with it. We strip it to find out why not, and fix the fault.
***Second posting - sorry about the bad audio the first time around lads, my error.

These beautiful old locks were the default American jail locks for more than half a century. We repin one to match a pre cut key that I bought from eBay, to make a working piece of history.")

The ALC Bilock is an iconic Australian lock. Its a very simple lock but a very difficult lock to pick. Another of Brian Preddeys masterpieces.")

In summary: If youre going to have one, buy the 7 pinner plus the expansion kit. Nice to have and very configurable, but kinda expensive for what you get, and definitely not for newbies.")

Lockwood discus padlock tested to destruction. This is a NZ$58 (US$42) padlock, and its rubbish.
Assa Abloy call these High Security, and they should be ashamed of themselves.

The Ultion is a very good lock. But it behaves very, very strangely and while it may be excellent against drilling and snapping attacks, it is ridiculously easy to pick and in my view this makes a mockery of its three star security rating. In addition, its online marketing material makes some very odd claims. I make some educated guesses as to why this might be.
Brisant Secure were emailed for comment ten days before this video was published. Ive had no response.

A really good Swedish lock, kind of an Assa Twin lite, with four slider element sidebar and security pins.
Tried some new filming gear on this one, didnt really work that well so apologies for lousy audio and camera angle.")

Bit of a long one and the disassembly is only really included to prove that I picked all the elements.
This is the first time Ive had this lock open and didnt pick at all like I expected, but a methodical approach nailed it in the end.
Theres a lot of interest in this lock and so Ill do a whole lot more videos on the MT5+ later, discussing whats happening inside them, why theyre difficult to pick, and how to beat them.")
