  • This is the lock picking lawyer.

  • And what you see is the Squire model s s 65 CS stronghold padlock.

  • It's a fairly beefy lock.

  • Here it is, next to a master lock number three for comparison.

  • It's made in the U.

  • K.

  • And is rated C and grade six the highest grade under the Central European norms.

  • But Squire decided that this wasn't strong enough for their flagship padlock.

  • So a few years ago, they came out with the S S A.

  • T.

  • C s padlock.

  • Up until a few days ago, this £5 lock was the largest in my collection, and it's advertised as TheStreet longest lock in the world.

  • At least it waas.

  • And you may recall that Bosnian Bill and I put that to the test at the firing range.

  • In video number 8 97 we put 100 and 20 rounds into it, including armor piercing ammunition.

  • And through all of that, the lock never opened.

  • Well, apparently, Squire didn't think that was good enough because they just came out with this £9.5 behemoth of a padlock.

  • The SS 100 CS.

  • Now this lock is so new It's not even on Squires website yet or sold by any retail or that I could find this was sent to me directly by Squire.

  • Now the proportions of this lock our border line comically large.

  • It's ah, 100 millimeters across.

  • And that's not including the plastic just metal 50 millimeters thick.

  • And this sports a 20 millimeter thick boron alloy shackle.

  • There are several comparisons I could make to demonstrate how big it is like this master lock number three, which is positively dwarfed.

  • But I like this.

  • It is more than double the weight of the largest munitions lock currently used by the U.

  • S.

  • Military.

  • I'm also told that this is the only padlock to qualify for the loss prevention Certification board s R.

  • Four rating.

  • Among other things, that means this should resist a Cordless angle grinder with a spare battery and three cutting discs for 10 minutes.

  • That is remarkable, okay, onto the course.

  • And yes, that was plural.

  • There are two of them in here.

  • This is a dual custody padlock, meaning that you need two different keys to open it up.

  • They're both six pin cores with fairly Paris centric key ways and excellent tolerances.

  • That means he would probably need a very experienced picker to open these reliably.

  • I would like to see a higher security option like Squire offers with its other stronghold, padlocks.

  • And maybe that's coming in the future.

  • But for now, we're going to see what it takes to get this one open.

  • I'm going to put a pain tray underneath it because I think it will damage my desk with all this weight.

  • Okay, We're going to get some tension in here.

  • And let's get a standard hook in 18 thousands.

  • Click out of one to his binding.

  • Nice click there.

  • Little click on three.

  • Nothing on 45 Okay, six is binding.

  • Nice click out of six.

  • Back to the beginning.

  • Nothing on one, two, three is binding.

  • Little click there.

  • Nothing on four five.

  • War six C one two is fine.

  • Three three actually feels like it could be over Set.

  • I released a little tension toe.

  • Let it down.

  • Nothing on four, five or six.

  • Not sure what's holding us up here.

  • One, two, three for click out of five.

  • Here we go.

  • And I'm pulling back.

  • I was stuck under I think number three, and we got this open.

  • Okay, let's flip this over and do the other core.

  • Okay?

  • Click out of one click out of two.

  • Nothing on three.

  • Nothing on four five and click out of six 12 Ray.

  • Pushing up on four four is definitely binding, but I think I'm hitting the the pen in front of it.

  • Let me get something a little bit deeper.

  • This is a medium hook.

  • I think in number seven.

  • There we go.

  • Nice click out of number four and a little bit of a false set there.

  • See?

  • Oh, there we go.

  • Number five means some counter rotation, and we got this open.

  • Okay, so definitely some good tolerances on there.

  • But as I said, with an experience picker, you probably won't have on awful lot of trouble.

  • Okay, let's get this apart.

  • And there are two screws, one down each side of the shackle.

  • Nice, beefy screws on.

  • Let's see what else comes out of here.

  • If we okay, there's the locking mechanism.

  • Pretty simple.

  • Definitely not something that can be bypassed, but something that God groups all over my hands Hump you want Look in the bottom.

  • There.

  • We go.

  • Okay.

  • We're only going to gut one of these core since do this one, and let's re lock it.

  • I actually do have the keys here, Lang.

  • Bring them over.

  • Let's get this.

  • See?

  • Clip off and we'll see which of these keys will open that.

  • Perfect.

  • Okay, seeing lots of drill protection in there, let's dump all of these key pins out, and then I will give you a closer look.

  • Looks like a steel pin in in all of the first.

  • Looks like every single one of these Probably four.

  • Nice drill resistance.

  • And if we look at that core, we can see that there are plenty of anti drill pins in there, too, in front of the first pen and then to between pins three and four.

  • Then we have a little hard and ball bearing right at the front of the pin stacks.

  • So certainly they gave some thought to someone attacking this with a drill.

  • Let's get all of these situated and and then we'll get the pins the driver pins out.

  • Okay, Standard pin and slot one standard in two.

  • I only felt one spool in here.

  • Here we go.

  • School in slot.

  • three.

  • I don't believe I felt that one.

  • It may never have come into play because we had a really long keep in there.

  • Standard in number four looks like it's a little shorter than the other ones, which means there was an attempt at balanced pin stacks here.

  • That is the spool I felt.

  • I felt down on pin five and there is the last standard pin.

  • Okay, so it looks like some pretty normal penning me lift this up for you.

  • All of those key pins are standard.

  • You can see some shelves on some of them.

  • They keep them from dropping too far down into the core.

  • That's an excellent excellent protection protection from bumping than for the driver pins.

  • We have 124 and six all Standard and then spools in slots three and five.

  • I might move them around to places with shorter driver pens, so they're a little bit more effective in the future.

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

  • But that's not all I have for you on this lock.

  • Look for some destructive attacks in the future.

  • For now, though, if you do have any questions or comments.

  • Please put them below.
