LPL : it's a mixed bag Shlage : A positive review!

if Schlage tried really hard they could go from "at least some effort" all the way to "better than expected"

For people asking about the "this side to door" - when you are installing the device, you are only installing that metal plate on your door first. Both sides are very similar when out of the box. So it's very helpful to see which side goes against the door 😉

Schlage secretary: LPL has a video on our lock. Schlage exec: Oh My God - don't tell me - what was it? A toothpick? A fork? Schlage Secretary: No - proper single pin picking, over a 4 minute video. Schlage exec: Quick! Call the shop floor - we need to increase production five-fold!

LPL’s scaling for pick resistance: 1. Inexcusable design flaw 2. Susceptible to a relatively low skill raking attack 3. At least some effort was made but won’t slow down an experienced picker for very long 4. Better than expected but won’t keep out an experienced picker for more than a few minutes 5. Not too difficult a pick but more than sufficient to ward off casual theft [or “to keep out a curious adolescent,” if a gun lock], especially considering its price point

Can you review a Wells Fargo bank vault, asking for a friend...

I'm not that into lockpicking, but I sub to this channel to remind me every day that there are ways around almost every problem.

I have this exact lock on my reloading room door to keep the kids out. I'm not to worried about pick resistance yet, as I've not heard my 5 year old say "click out of 3, 4 is binding" yet.

“This side against door” so novices don’t cut a giant rectangle out of their door to slide the whole doorlock squarely in.

_Hears cast zinc_ So when are we testing this lock against a plumber's torch?

That freaky moment when you see LPL about to pick the very lock you have on your own house (or at least one very close to it)

"This side against door" I bet there is a hilarious story behind this message...

"Some effort"? Good enough for me.

Thanks for going back to your roots... I miss the non Amazon, non stupidly made locks... Don't get me wrong it's fun to know exploits, and how to find your own...

Well, at least not opened with a teaspoon or a toothpick, so pretty decent I guess.

Well, Schlage created a good lock from what I could see, all those spools and drill resistance. Just because LPL can pick it in x amount of time, don't mean its crap. He's a flippin pro-expert-champ lock picker...its a decent lock...good on ya Schlage!

Considering that I think very, very few thieves are "experienced pickers", that sure sounds like a good lock.

I feel like it's been an eternity since I've seen you actually pick and disassemble a lock. Love the new method for removing the key pins as well. Thank you.

I find it funny they felt it necessary to imprint "This side to door" on the mounting plate. If that part of the install was confusing, maybe one should just concentrate on remembering to breathe, rather than installing a lock.

whoah holy shit. a proper tool for spinning the back cover off while holding the detent down AND a new method of lifting the keypins for easy extraction rather than tapping them out one by one and having them fly everywhere? LPL has levelled up! other youtube locksport channels take note! This is the new gold standard for clean and fast lock gutting

A “mixed bag” is a high compliment from LPL.

Nice to see you gut a lock again! It feels like you don't do that as much in your newer videos, and seeing the internals is my favorite part!

Hey Lock Picking Lawyer. I always watch you just take apart locks with ease and denounce them for their lack of quality. You should do a video where you cover some good locks and pick those for us!

Ffs. The lock comes in three pieces that need to be assembled. The "this side to door" sticker is on a metal plate that looks similar from either side, but can only be installed one way. And I can confirm that it was helpful.

I definitely want to see a video with all of the locks you haven't been able to pick, to date. Those are the locks I would buy !

Thank you for your videos, LPL. You always put a smile on my face everytime I see the notification for your new uploads. Great work.

Cool to see this. We use this lock at my work all the time. It’s our go to for interior and exterior doors.

Nice to see Schlage making some effort at security. Cheers and thanks for sharing LPL. 😁👍

We used to have this same exact lock at the previous house we rented

This is the LockPickingLawyer, and today I am standing outside of Fort Knox with a fork in my hand.

Schlage is my favorite brand of lock to pick. Cheers LPL, it was nice to see the ol' pick n' gut. It's been a while!

I was picking before I ever found this channel, Schlages were always a deep cut next to a shallow cut. Do you get the animosity in his voice? I've learned so much by helping people out that were getting ripped off, then somebody showed up with the same sense and made hillarious 2 minute or less videos. My hero. I was at my new job the other day where a Freightliner was in the way and the other shift took the keys home. That took 3 seconds with random things laying around to turn the cylinder and hit the button. It took longer to air up (thank you George Westinghouse) than to get started. Keep on this, you don't have to amaze anybody. Just be useful, and bend the rules sometimes.

*"THIS SIDE AGAINST DOOR"* Now wasn't that a surprise!

Yay! Back to lock picking and disassembly!!

You are truly the master of lock picking! I salute you.

You’ve really got some of the most entertaining followers. Lots of these comments are priceless.

I recently installed a few of those at work. I should try to pick them, just for fun.

That is crazy my work has one of these and I was going to see how secure we were and see if you've done a video on it. And bam, uploaded

At your early videos I thought locks that get picked normally are bad. But now seeing locks that get opened with a fork or just your mere presence, are actually impressive.

Loves me a good gutting. Thanks LPL. Amazing work!👍

Uploaded “48 seconds ago”.. I didn’t even know KZfaq presents stuff in seconds in the subscription feed xD

He just LOVED the first click!

Your videos are awesome. I love yours and bike videos. Thank you for what you do.

Nice picking. I like a couple things about this lock, security pins and simple access to the KiK cylinder.

Man he opened that fast. The other day I couldn’t find a key to a Masturlock, and I couldn’t pick it either! My angle grinder had it open in seconds though.

This feels like a dentist appointment 😂

The comments section of LPL is often comedy gold! Love the channel LPL!

I have no ability to "pick" a lock open but I do love watching this guy as he opens every lock thrown at him. I follow him on tictok.

its 3 am and you hear from your front door " click out of 1, nothing on 2, 3 is binding, 3 is set, click out of 4..."

"This is the LockPickingLa... and it's unlocked"

Straight to the point as always. Good job.

Been waiting for this model, great vid

I thought I would be able to click on this video faster than he picked the lock but then I saw gutted in the title.

let’s get this out on a tray, nice. it’s been a while since we’ve seen a tear down.

Yay back to the classic format. Picked and gutted. 😀👍🏼

Note of caution, the newer models have a different core on the tail end, easy to disassemble, be careful when you remove the screw holding the cylinder in place if you don’t plan ahead it may fall into the lock mechanism and then you are required to remove back cover, screws are T15’s. If you not careful pieces will fly out and then you have a cluster, not to bad to reassemble but time consuming. Great video. Phil, Areawide Locksmith

This is the same lock that was used on the final door in an escape room I hosted once. We did have instructions not to pick the locks, not that anyone tried. It would defeat the purpose of the game and I think it would be a bit financially unwise to pay 25 bucks a head for 40 seconds of lockpicking. Also if getting out of the room fast is your goal there was an emergency door that was unlocked in case of fires, claustrophobia etc. The only time I saw someone get close to using that door was this couple who according to their conversation had spent the day engaging in large amounts of wine tasting and enchiladas. This had a significant biological effect on the husband and he was vigorously crop-dusting his wife with farts that sounded like Chewbacca reading sad poetry. Low, mournful, moan-like rumbles that went on for an uncomfortable amount of time. They had to have been fairly loud since our microphones weren't that good. After about the 5th groan of intestinal trombone solos she was threatening to leave and let him do the room himself. They eventually made it through, no doubt their eyes stinging while trying to read the clues that would free them from the ghost of enchiladas past. I can see that being a strategy to give your team motivation to solve the puzzles quicker, it just seems a little cruel. At least since I hosted that round I got to give the other guy a can of Glade and have him reset the room.

2:00 "this side against dioor" lol

Those style locks are not popular down here. I'm used to high end commercial and government electronic security. These locks to me appear as a novely or gimmick rather than real security. Cheers for sharing. 🍺✌😎

I sure am glad you're one of the good guys.

People really need to remember how advanced LPL is at lock picking. A 50 second lock for him is going to be much much more difficult for the rest of us.

It’s nice to see him dismantle a lock core again!

😎Excellent as always LPL.thanks for great video. 😎

A video of a normal lock that's more than 2.5 minute?! Boy we are in for a treat!

"I picked this up as part of a large lot of lock parts on eBay." Guess what my day is going to be spent doing? Hello, eBay!

When the words "dropped into a false set" are uttered by LPL, you're in the 80'th percentile of difficulty, and a 5% bonus is applied for "counter-rotation on #" Watching the best do it, you must remind yourself that there are few "bests" out there....

You are amazing!!! Nice job!

Love your videos. To the point.

"I picked this up as part of a large lot of lock parts on Ebay, so I don't have a key to it". Huh hh Huh Huhh ….It's in the hands of the LockPickingLawyer!

lpl became a lawyer so he could defend himself in court for all the break in accusations

How could I have missed this video when I've seen hundreds of LOL videos? I have this electronic latch on my front door, along with a deadbolt that's keyed identically. I was glad to see some spools. I expected standard pins. I was going to add spool pins and mix in a few stiffer springs to add bump resistance. I may not bother because I'm replacing the deadbolt with a Mul-T-Lock Interactive+. I expect security to be a growth industry in the next few years and I'm trying to stay in front of that curve.

I have had this for the last 12 years I love it. Definitely worth for anyone who loses their house key or had kids that may lose it aswell

I'd like to know your thoughts on the electronic part of the lock. Since this uses a KIK cylinder, if the electronics are worthy it would potentially be useful for other keyways.

Sees a four minute video: Wow! Must be good! *sees picked AND gutted* Oh, wait, never mind.

Ahhhhhh... something from the classics..lol simple yet elegant

Always nice to have the right tools.

Thought about gluing my key holes then realized LPL isn't the guy, it's some dude who's just gonna kick adjacent window or French doors in.

This seems obvious, but are you a lawyer that just picks locks as a hobby?

Your vids are addictive. I came for 1 video then stay for the next 4, 5, 6....

Yay! A lock worth taking apart! Great vid too.

I wonder if this lock could be bypassed by sticking a pick into the gap around the handle and actuating whatever linkage couples the handle?

Hey LPL, i got an advertizement on this video for locks from “commando lock company” and they mentioned how they “engineered anti-pick technologies in the core” could you make a video on one of their products to put it to the test?

You sure make this look easy my friend!

Great again Mr Lawyer 👍🏻

Schlage's Motto: "If it says Schlage, you Know you're Getting In!" ("We're Better than Master?")

“So Schlage made some effort at pick resistance” I love LPL’s passive-aggressive sarcastic digs.

I like the fact that it's a standard core so you can easily replace it with something more secure if necessary

That flex at the beginning, "I don't have a key to it"..."we'll see what it takes to pick this open" 😂

If I was your neighbor I might as well just remove my door

Will "Nice click!" be LockPickingLawyer's "Nice hiss!" from SteveMRE.

Great video as always brother, thanks for sharing it with us

Thanks for this video. I really enjoy the gutting videos because of all the extra bits of detail and analysis that are provided. It's very much like reading a book about a subject and going to a lecture on the subject.

What is the best lock thus discovered, regardless of what it's supposed to secure?

"Honey, there's someone at the door....Do you know anything about a 'Clicking' sound? =))

Wow! That lock really had the word "top" printed on the back.😃

I love how you must be one of the few people on Earth who buys locks without keys like it doesn’t even matter....

LPL: "Nice click there." Lock: Well, shit...

Last time I was this early gun safes were still considering safe.

thanks lpl have a nice day!

Nice work! 🔑
