This is the lock picking lawyer, and today I have some really interesting news.

Adverbs of manner

If you've watched my channel for long, you've probably heard me expressed some frustration with the pick resistance of padlocks available in major American retailers.

Well, it looks like Home Depot finally decided to add a premium line of padlocks to their retail stores, and they chose Pak Lock as their partner.

Now Pack Lock usually stacks up pretty well against comparable products in the PIC Resistance Department.

But with the line of locks going into Home Depot, they also brought a little bit of innovation, with some features you just don't see in retail locks and other features that you don't see anywhere now.

There are a lot of locks here, and rather than glossing over everything, Bosnian Bill and I decided to divide them between us and give everything a closer look.

So if you want to see this trailer door, lock this cargo container door lock or this lock designed for job site tool chests, head over to Bill's channel today and Friday, I will leave a link in the description below.

I'll be looking at these two normal padlocks, and on Friday we will dig into the puck link, MTA ble, chain lock and the puck lock with hasp to locks.

It would be great for outfitting a work vehicle, but before I clear everything else away, I want to talk about the universal cylinder system from Pak Lock.

Every single one of these products takes the same type of user replaceable core.

Well, let's say you're outfitting a truck with a couple of puck locks for the doors, then you want the puck link for securing some ladders on the roof.

You're towing a trailer, so you need to lock the door.

And maybe you have a tool chest as well that you need to lock.

What you can do is buy a five pack of key toe like coarse and create a key toe like system with only the particular locks you need.

It's really a great idea to see in retail stores.

All these cores are chrome plated brass with six pins, and they're loaded with spools and serrated security pens.

Those pins are drill resistant stainless steel, so essentially these cores are at or near the top of the market for this type of cylinder.

Okay, I'm going to cut the video, clear everything but these two padlocks way, and we will look at them a little bit more carefully.

Okay, I've put everything aside, but the two locks will be looking at a little bit more carefully there, the models to a and for A.

They have 5/16 inch and 7/16 in shackles and will sell for 30 and $40 respectively.

They are marine grade locks, meaning there is nothing to rust.

Usually that means a significantly weaker shackle.

However, pack Locke tells me they have a process for hardening these stainless steel shackles that makes them or cut resistant than boron alloy shackles, which is very impressive.

Usually, though, non rusting materials like these aluminum lock bodies will not be as resistant a brute force as steel.

I may do some testing to quantify that in the future, but the most common brute force attacks on locks like these are probably twisting, cutting and grinding.

And I suspect for those particular categories, they probably have similar resistance.

Now there may be some specialized attacks where aluminum would be at a significant disadvantage things like drilling for the core retention Screw.

But that would require a fairly savvy thief, at least someone who knew the drill points.

And then, of course, I will take it apart to show you what's inside.

Okay, It looks like we need the keys to get this out of the package, but the keys are melted end.

Yeah, we can just pick this while it's still here.

Tension with a 40,000 thick pry bar in a standard hooking 18 thousands.

Nothing on one click out of 22 It's still binding.

Nothing on 234 Click out of five Got our false set back.

Okay, let's leave that unlocked, so we won't need the keys to get this apart.

Now, to take this apart, there is a small Allen screw down the shackle hole.

By the way, if you buy the packs of extra kita like cylinders, it actually comes with the correct Alan Ranch.

Then to take this apart, need to remove a different Allen screw.

And not only does that hold the court together, it also keeps you from over rotating it.

If you were to do that, you'd be able to drop all the key pins right out the bottom there.

And clearly pack lock would not want the end user to do that.

Another thing they did to help protect the end user.

If we look down here, I don't know if you'll be able to see it.

Usually, once you take the bottom off, all of the guts, the mechanism will be able to fall out the bottom pack lock.

Put a small plate with a retaining screw in there to make sure the end user didn't accidentally drop the mechanism out the bottom of their lock.

I believe right about there will allow us to take this out without freezing this court together.

And then if we look at this core weaken, see, there is a groove cut right behind pin stack number six.

And that is what keeps the core from over rotating.

A spool pin in slot one and a stainless steel spring, a serrated pin and slot, too.

And a weaker stainless steel spring a spool and another one of the weaker stainless steel springs in slot three, serrated, spool and serrated.

Okay, There is definitely a difference in the resistance, and actually, the smaller ones appear to be the firmer of them.

So it looks like we have firmer springs in slots two and four and then weaker springs in slots 135 and in six.

And they probably varied the spring tension as a measure to stop this from being bumped very, very good to say Okay, so that's all I have for you on the pack.

Clocks model to end for a tune in on Friday will be looking at the Puck link and the puck lock with Hasp, but that's it for today.
