Not the standard kind. A rotary lock is too different from a pin tumbler lock.

Bumping is for spring-based pin locks. There'e no springs in a disc lock, and nothing to bump.

He actually can’t pick it, yet.

He can’t do it but there is actually a video of a guy picking it kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6SqamOLfLeHptk

He probably could pick it fairly easily, if he had the right tool. Same with any lock. I only know of a few people who have ever manufactured a suitable tool to do it. LPL has said he's not that great at manufacturing tools, although he has made some in the past. Soon as somebody is willing to put detailed plans online or sell the tool, I'm sure he'll do it.

Idiot the abloy protec2 is the best lock

As much respect I have for the mans skill, I haven't even seen him open an exec or sento yet, let alone the Protec2. I have seen 2 videos of it being picked, both have some issues, not saying they did not, but the videos have flaws.

He said this is one of the locks he can’t pick, yet.

@@TheAzynder There's a third video out that I've seen that doesn't have the issues you're referring to. He shows the tool and technique. Very credible. I'm inclined to believe that the other two who did it are credible simply by their reputations, although it is very annoying that they would not show off their tools. Security through obscurity is pretty dumb and we should all be benefiting from the knowledge and experience the community develops as a whole, and force lockmakers to do better through embarrassment. Everyone relying on locks to keep bad guys out needs a wake-up call too; penetration testers routinely show that locks are usually not the weakest link in security, and that unearned confidence in locks is only hurting people. Computer security does not suffer from this kind of shortsightedness. Exploits are exposed and everyone is forced to do better. The incompetent companies don't stick around so long. Anyway, LPL has never been a master toolmaker. He is capable of some basic stuff, and no one should doubt his skills at using tools if he has tools, but he just doesn't have the necessary tool to pick these locks. Hopefully soon.

Very well said!

Hi Richard, a factory reset is not a simple fix and doing it yourself may void your warranty if not completed correctly. We recommend contacting a professional and qualified locksmith to assist you with this challenge.

@@WynnsLocksmiths thank you for your quick response!

Six minutes of marketing waffle was enough for me. You would have to pay me a lot of money to go through an hour of it.

I recommend giving Lockwood a call on 1300 Lockup (1300 562 587) as they will happily help you out with what the issue going on there is.

@@WynnsLocksmiths ok thank you!

You need to register all the cards at once. I got caught out with this once.

Hi Jack, are you using the batteries included with your lock set? I haven't experienced this problem before. I recommend giving Lockwood a call on 1300 Lockup (1300 562 587) as they will happily help you out with what the issue going on there is.

Considering virtually every finnish home has abloy locks, and the entire nation doesn't have the issue you claim, you are either full of it, or at fault.

It really isn’t unpickable, there are way more people who can pick medecos compared to the 10 or so people who can pick a protec 2

LOL, no. Medeco is routinely picked at this point. Protec2 will be routinely picked soon as well, certainly before their patent expires, and there are other exploits besides picking that are often easier.

idk idk and now you know why master locks are cheap

Well what I found with math is that 7^11 would fit it. And with some googling I found this from one of their PDF "There are Protec systems which contain nine discs or eleven discs."

Hi, you can see on the key it will have a small "name" engraved on it, not the side that says pat. the most common is 7Z, which is the one picked on YT. Essentially the disc controller has a small profile on it which fits with the profile in the middle of the key. You then have 9 discs that correspond to the key with 6 positions times the amout of key profiles possible. Only abloy is allowed to make the key codes which means none will ever be the same, if they ever run out they just make a new type of key and disc controller profile, even though they will never sell enough of them to have that ever happen.

You could possibly get a 9 or 8 position lock as well,

cintu lator Pretty sure noone has ever managed to pick a protec2 yet

Dedrik Moser Matt Smith or Huxleypig has

@@iain3713 Too bad he is a better picker than a video maker, I could make a fake video that would look identical. Which lead to a lot of drama on the channel, lot of which he could have avoided with so little. I think the pick has hit the market and costs a fair bit and still can't pick my locks, this is not to downplay the achievement in anyway.

If it's in a door how can you punch them out? lol

It is easy to punch out tumblers when they are not actually attached to a door with proper keyways. In fact you can do it with a hammer and a nail. Try doing it when it's securely attached to even an MDF door.

that doesnt work on current abloy protec2 locks. especially when installed in a door with no clearance with a cam screwed in.

nice ;-) kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5mXZ3lprMpkY68

+Tavor57 They just showed one disk "in action" but all of them have to be in right order. I found that confusing too.
