Congratulations, you're a certified locksmith in the US!!

The video was informative but, I'm never going to understand why people add the stupid, unnecessary music.

Thanks, worked like a charm! Had to drill out a filing cabinet lock. 3 pins and it popped open. I drilled just above center, focusing on the pins like you first lock.

I just keep a brick under the doormat to fling through my living room window in case I lock myself out

as a locksmith for 29 years, always drill a shear line, take your time, if you rush, you will break a bit off, then you are screwed,,,and always drill perfectly, not like this video, his angles are all crooked,,,,,,,good luck,

Thank you, got it done within seconds 👍

thank you 1rst maintenance guy here....so informative

Pro tip: don’t use an acrylic padlock to lock your stuff. Btw nice tests!

Wicked! I have a job for MY new DeWalt now!

This was great, thanks so much. Had to use this for work when someone put their own lock on our equipment.

That was well worth watching

Ty so much! I tried method #3 along the shear line and the lock popped open at the second pin. I think I got extremely lucky. Good vid, mate.

Thanks so much. My son locked my keys in the shed... even though he's been told a million times "bring the key back as soon as you unlock it"...I was watching this when he decided to not wait ten minutes and took my hinges off my 15 years old shed...sigh... but hey thanks to you I know how to pop the lock for future reference

weeks of struggle is over thanks....

What a video. Lessons learned: acrylic is softer than brass. I was here for field work tips. This was silly.

Nice! I was looking around for a video on this as I was wondering what was going on inside the lock and what the target objective was. Thank you for beating out an animation and showing it with these clear locks!

Would like to see you drill a filing cabinet lock

works perfect managed to break into 4 garages last night thanks 😂 joking by the way 🤣🤣🤣

It worked!

THAT WORKED PERFECT..... Yeah on a piece of shit made of plastic, do that with some harden anti-steel drill pins, along with a harden steel body and some serrated lock you'll have about 2 hours and about 25 broken drill bits and still wont open.

I use a hacksaw or angle grinder on the shackle of the lock , job done quickly

This is exactly what i was looking for! THANKS for helping me steal this car that was locked in a garage out in a field near Bradford Pennsylvania

I have no idea where one obtains clear-bodied locks, but they were an excellent device for this informative tutorial! Also, though I can postulate some reasons why certain people, locksmiths and police for instance, might give your video thumbs down, I cannot agree. There are, in fact, legitimate and lawful reasons for drilling locks. I recently purchased several job site tool boxes at auction. One is locked. The theft-discouraging design of the box houses the padlock within a steel recess where the bow of the lock is totally inaccessible to any cutting device without severely damaging the box. Thank you for providing this excellent tutorial that gives me several alternative methods to consider. I will return another time to see if you also have a video detailing methods of drilling out an integral Medico (if I recall the brand correctly) lock on the door of a soda pop vending machine that a former tenant abandoned on a property I own. Regrettably, I already probably procrastinated too long since the machine sat in an unheated building through several sub-zero Montana winters--I shudder to contemplate what, other than a few coins, I will find inside ;-)

Thank you for your video. The people below are just mad that nobody would watch there video

I drilled a master padlock the pins and springs came out but it still doesn’t open with the screw driver??

3:18 why this cut? all the pins jumped at the sheer line, I wanted to see the last one! I think it is better to keep the drill bit in and turn the core. Interesting to see it, thanks for the video!

As to which method works best, I would think a plastic lock isn't the best test medium. For a practical real world scenario it would've been nice if you would've also included drilling out real world locks/deadbolt/doorhandle using the same methods. Yes being able to see what happens inside is insightful. Title should read: How to drill out plastic practice locks 4 diff ways.

Another point to make for people is there going to be drilling in steel not plastic. So angle grinder and a pair of pliers to hold it steady. I've used this method on many storage units over the years.

Good job Bruh but next time use eye protection please.

That music is going to haunt me.

You do great work that saves us money Mr Bill. Love your new vice. Many thanks from Perth.

Usually you don't even need to drill very far. The vibration will magically rattle the pins into the open position. If the key turns counter clockwise, use a left hand drill. I found this by accident once while drilling out a door knob in my house. Not the quietest way to open a lock. But this made me realize that most locks are not particularly hard for a thief to open. False security.

Good Dewalt ad

I found that I can drill and open ANY padlock with a larger drill bit and my Makita impact driver in less than 5 seconds using Milwaukee drill bits.

i am working in an orchard, but i still cant adjust the vice to the way i need

i have a Thule Roftop Box and some huligan distroyed the lock trying to open it but failed. It seems to be made of alloy,have a spare one... How can I remove the broken one ?

It would be awesome if you could make a video with the multi tool lock pick used on one of these clear locks. but it opens so fast you might need slow motion lol.

Hah, my kid locked her room with her sister's computer (needed for school), her computer (needed for work) and a friend's car key inside. Smooth move dudette! It was a standard cylinder lock for which there was no key (it's a rental we took during remodel). I drilled a small hole above, but as near as I could get to the shear line. Like reality, I could not always keep the drill straight, so it veered right-up and then a little up. But, it was a smallish hole, so once I got it fairly straight, I turned the drill on a higher speed and just "sawed" down a little bit and the lock easily opened. The hole is small so you can hardly notice it. The lock still works from inside, but anything that turns the cylinder such as a screwdriver will now open the lock. The whole door mechanism is still completely functional so we're not even going to replace the lock. Moral #1 of the story (IMHO) drill just above the sheer line (why not through the sheer line? Because it's really hard to do that since the cylinder is often harder steel) and then with mild downward pressure, high turn rate, press lightly down until it chews through the sheer line. Don't break the drill! This has the advantage of leaving the door knob and even lock inside completely functional. Moral #2 Holy hell, this type of lock should not be used on your outside doors! It literally took me all of 10 seconds and I bet I could do it in 3 with a bit of practice. This is not secure at all!

I got locked in my room, lost the key to the door and tried getting out by the window... I have no idea where the key is because the window has been locked with a lock for like 6 years... I went for method 4....I'm still trying

My late husband used number 3 when I lost the key to my "iron maiden". Oh boy did we make "whoopie" after he got it opened!!!!

A lot of proper locks have hardened steel inserts to stop drilling - lots of bits broken

6:00 it’s tough because your bit has been working hard.

Now I can get into my Dads booz cabinet. BTW, I'm 57.

Or just angle grind the shank

I want to open my almirah..had lost keys or somebody stolen my keys, no idea..plz guide

i can open it faster using nail clippers haha but serious a bolt cutter will be much faster and a LOT more quiet

Method 2 with plastic is different than with a metal body.

So... Hardened steel.. hmm

You just need to protect your eyes mate

Good seethru method but you should of definitely used real locks. The metal cases would of made a huge difference.

Heres a few other tips for free, Check which direction your new drills on hahaha it shoudlnt take longer than a minute it may be the video but it looked like you had the drill on reverse.?! Either that or those drill bits are just garbage. -Buy a cordless angle grinder, cut the rasp the thing the lock is locked onto, dont even bother with the lock. You can also just cut the brass part of the lock, even a hacksaw will cut straight thru easily. -Buy a pair of bolt cutters with a couple of pieces of steel pipe on the handles, again dont bother with the lock just cut the thing its on. -use a drill bit the same size as the lock and drill the whole barrell out. Use lubricant and decent drill bits. Even hardened locks with the right pressure, bit and lube itl take under 2 mins.

I just lost 2 drill bits. Never buy cheap.

if you steal someone house he gonna wake up

But it's acrylic

Gonna sound like your mum for a sec & say pls wear eye protection

This is the lock picking lawer and my videos are 1 minute long.

If the locks going to be ruined the fastest and easiest way is a angle grinder battery powered. Battery powered because you can control the speed variable. And it goes like butter literally less than 10 seconds. I did my neighbor's boat and he was amazed.

Come on...like were supose to take a Vice with use to the storage shead???

that's

So this video was intended to make burglar beginners to be caught by police :) nice job drilling on soft transparent locks without drill protection.

For a padlock like these you're better off using an angle grinder to cut the lock off.

You try drilling a real lock with normal drill bits you'll be in for a shock

Yea...I... ummm.... locked myself out😁

Just think not all locks r made out of plastic bro

Might work on those plastic locks, but try real locks.

method 3 allot quicker on a plastic lock , might be slower on a metal lock? more meat

Lester says: "Dont let the drill over heat you moron"

you didn't even say what size dri bits you used....be complete please

So mad. Spent like 30 mins drilling a few padlocks out thinking "when is it gonna break free?" Didn't even try using a flathead after drilling them out to open it. Lol

Why would anyone bother to drill out that lock? You could just break it off with a bolt cutter.

Your alignment needs some work mate.

1m45 thank me later.

You are drilling a cheap acrylic lock. Try that on a real metal padlock! You will find the results won’t be the same!

Hahahaha dude. You’ve never drilled a lock in your life before that plastic thing. This was informative as to where to drill but Nah, not that easy

For God's sake stop your rambling and get to the demonstration!

Music was God awful

boreing

You have no idea what you are doing.

dont make videos about opening locks please, here everything is wrong

Perhaps don't do these videos. Don't need to educate the dangerous or thieves now do we?

You talk too much. Show the thing, turn off music.
