  • This is the lock picking lawyer, and recently, in video 1009 I featured three types of Brinks padlocks with what I believe to be inexcusable design flaws.

  • And one of them was this four digit combination lock, which can literally be bypassed faster than you can dial the combination.

  • Let me show you just how easy it ISS it's currently locked.

  • I'm going to take a thin shim of metal, slip it between the lock body and a code wheel, then push it all the way to the back.

  • Press down on the shackle down on the XM and it pops right open.

  • It's really that easy.

  • Well, a number of you pointed out in the comments that Brings is now offering a similar looking path lock with a different mechanism.

  • And they said, it's not subject to this attack, folks.

  • I wish that were true.

  • This is the newer style padlock, and you can see externally they look a little bit different.

  • However internally, the mechanism is very similar, and unfortunately, that means the exact same bypassed works on it.

  • This is currently locked.

  • Once again, we will slip a thin shim of metal between the lock body and a code wheel.

  • Press down on the shackle down on the XM and it pops open.

  • Same for this one currently locked.

  • Slipped this in between the lock body and a code wheel.

  • Press down on the shackle down on the XM and it is open.

  • So as you can see, the newer Brinks model is Justus flawed as the old one and should definitely be avoided.

  • In any case, that's all I have for you today.

  • If you do have any questions or comments about this, please put them below you like this video and would like to see more like it.

  • Please subscribe.

  • And, as always, have a nice day.

  • Thank you.
