  • This is the lock picking lawyer, and what I have for you today is an annoyingly reflective master lock trailer coupler lock.

  • It's the model 3 77 D a.

  • T.

  • This is designed to lock on the coupler of a trailer, thus preventing a hitch from being attached and making tow away theft more difficult.

  • The product appears to be made from a chrome plated zinc casting the same construction probably opens this up to heat attacks, and that may be something we investigate in a future video.

  • But today we're going to see what it takes to pick this open Master Lock claims that this lock has an advanced locking mechanism, which resists picking and prying.

  • It sure looks like an ordinary wafer lock to May, but the only way to tell if this resist picking is to give it a shot.

  • So let's do that right now.

  • If we look back here, we can see that the key way is covered with a shudder that can be held open with the tension tool, and I'm going to be using one of the's wave rakes just that fast.

  • We opened it up.

  • Let's do it.

  • A couple more times to make sure that wasn't a fluke.

  • Once again, we're open and one more time opened it up.

  • So as you saw, this lot can be defeated very quickly with a relatively unskilled raking attack.

  • And contrary to the claims on the locks packaging, it's really hard to imagine a lock that resists picking less than this one.

  • 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.

  • And, as always, have a nice day.

  • Thank you.
