I really like this lock. It’s not an easy pick and those trap pins can be infuriating. Only the hardcore will watch the full 360 pick! :-)

To me the ATK is the ideal level of security for home...robust against physical attacks and enough of a nuisance to deter picking. It ensures that evil-doers will resort to destructive entry (if they haven't got a key), but doesn't make it too difficult for a locksmith to get in non-destructively. I find those bleedin' trap pins to be more awkward to pick than the main lock, I can't imagine how annoying they'd be if you had to pick one installed in a door.

Thanks for showing how to gut this sucker. Just got one & will be keeping it in one piece, because I don't have the skill or patience to put it back together like yourself. Pick on Noob!

A brilliant pick on that brilliant lock!! Beautiful how it all works!! I think I could spend a very enjoyable evening picking this lock!! Or at least trying! Thank you so much for showing this!!! 👍👍👍

Great job on the picking. It looks like a very nice lock and of course as we all know, the shiner the lock, the better it is!

Really nicely picked, those ATK locks really are tricky, the trap pins are such a great design. I’ve picked both the ABS & ATK & found the ATK a lot harder get past those trap pins. Great job & fantastic video. 👍

Fantastic job Ash my friend well done👍😊👍😊😎👌👌

Really enjoyed watching this lock being picked and gutted. Got myself recently in trouble , father lost main (and remote) key for Ford , so , I took one of those cheap "tibbe" lock decoders , as spare key he put inside car. Big hassle for someone unfamiliar with this type of locks. Now for this lock here. From side , it looks a lot like Abloy Protec 2 cylinder with thumb turn. Now , having really hard time opening , well , more picking my own car , and having ordered Abloy cylinder for myself , thought , what if I can somehow make similar pick from those for Ford "Tibbe" lock , to be for Abloy Protec 2 lock. I mean , similar design. I think that interactive element , aka small ball bearing inside key can be replicated , and using design for ford locks , creating similar pick. Or decoder , to be more precise. Have to think this out once I get that Abloy cylinder. And , pay astronomic price for new car key with remote and cloned chip. As most dealerships can't replicate them , only few of them , based on cars VIN , aka batches. Damn.

My God now that's a LOCK!!!!!!! I would hate to run into that. You made that look easy, well done.

Hi Lock Noob, Interesting lock, we don't see them Down Under. Obviously a little frustrating, and deliberately so. I'm sure a spinner wouldn't really be effective after picking, however, while not being in the spirit of Locksport, I'm a fan of impressioning - I'm guessing that would be the way to go! (:-) Regards, Brian.

That's a lovely lock and well designed! Great 360° picking! 👍

Very nice pick, also glad that you are saying what needs hard tension and what needs easier tension it really really helps thanks

That is wicked cool! Love those trap pins! Well done! I desire one of those locks!!!

Very impressive lock and excellent picking Lock Noob! 👍👍👍👍🧡

I like avocets. I’ve got a few that are significantly further down the difficulty scale but I still find them challenging little picks and I usually need the whole 10 minutes to pick my way through, (if I can’t get in inside 10 minutes, I move on. Means I stay sane and don’t throw any locks out the window, shortly followed by my picks!). Anyway, top content as always and your prowess as a competitive picker shows!!

What can I say.... That was a fantastic showcase pick. You did it flawlessly too. Absolutely first class. Now after all that well deserved praise... how does an anti bump pin work? Obviously it stops the use of a bump key but how? Great pick Lock Noob 11 out of 10.

Gret picking and gutting on that very cool lock, trap pins are evil to pick on camera, thanks for showing my friend ;o)))

I love these locks. Very nicely done there :-)

Enjoyed the vid. Nice job on getting through those horrid trap pins. Would it be possible to plug spin past the trap pins?

Really cool look! It looks both fun and frustrating LOL. My question to you is, if you were in the field how well do you think a plug spinner might work in order to avoid the hassle?

As a relative noob(no offence😬) at picking i was well happy when the core turned under my ruff efforts, but then the trap pins (that i had'nt even noticed) jumped into the core🙈 i cant get past the little buggers. Trying to hold the lock,wiggle tension and pick them is beyond me😔 adding 'Vice' to ever lengthening shopping list now🙂 great video and explanation of that locks goodies,Thanks for posting Mr LN👍

Well picked! 👏 looks a mean SOB with those trap pins too! 😁🥚

Nice piece of engineering - great lock and pick. There are even trap pins that permanently lock the plug in place - so it could even come worse ;-)

Trap pins are deceiving for sure; found out my old front door cylinder had some and they proved to be quite the challenge!

Cool lock, nicely done. Many of our euro's we have here have no anti-snap and no anti-drill. Maybe we have less criminals. Lol

Very nice, that is quite the lock!

That's the best attempt at security I've seen in an "everyday" type lock. Could it be improved even more with different pins?

Is it possible to bypass anti snap feature by inserting a blank key as reinforcement of weakened core? Good work!

Great picking and review as always. I was wondering if the trap pins can still be bypassed by a bump key and can the thumb turn actuator be bypassed with thumb turn wires? I know that there are some locks that the thumb turn wires can not activate the cam so was wondering if this was more secure than a standard euro lock with regards to bumping and bypassing the thumb turn?

holy cow how much coffee did you drink when you took apart that lock?

Excellent. I've been waiting for you to do one of those. Question: once you'd picked the key pins was the lock then open or did you have to pick the trap pins too before you could open the door?

Is this a good lock for the average home? Or do you have any other recommendations for a euro cylinder

Nicely done brother

Awsome job My Friend

Thank you Lock Noob

I have the ABS front and rear on my home. Those big chunky anti pieces will really mess up your day if you try to drill it.

Nice video.

That was awesome ☺

Great work as usual good sir😘😘👍👍😎 Do you think if the orientation of the lock was different,that the trap pins would be easier or harder?? I would love to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks for sharing 😘😘👍👍

Are these still being made in Britain?

Could I trouble you to borrow this lock for a some time? I have an ABS one and still not able to pick it (because of the magnets) but this one I actually might be able to. :D

Thats a bad lock great pick

Can you bypass this thumb turn lock?

Hi there - I have these locks and was alarmed by another video that showed how a euro thumb turn can be easily bypassed ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ntxyptCqypPJio0.html ) Am I right in thinking that this method wouldn’t work on this particular lock as the piece that turns the cam is part of the cylinder and so picking would be required?

That's one tricky lock. I've heard good things about their ABS lock, but never had the privilege. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend.
