LOL. I see your point. I meant that the lock is simple compared to what one would think by looking at the key. The sheer oddity of the key led me to believe that the mechanism would be equally non-conventional. Not so. Also, simple =\= easy.

[@Beregorn88]

Two thing you didn't mention about the lock. The first thing is that this is a "low security" version: every lock in Italy need at least two 180 degree turns to open, wile many of those kind of locks (usually mounted on armored doors, also a common practice) require 4 turns; in some cases even 6. The other thing is that they are usually mounted in conjunction with an other common lock. In addition, many doors doesn't have an external handle, requiring and additional turn of the common lock, this time against a spring-loaded mechanism, to actually open. This is the reason why burglars in Italy usually enter from the window

Lockpicking is for locksmiths. Burglars don't typically pick locks. A burglar goes for the weakest point of entry, and they don't care about using destructive force. Lockpicking is non-destructive, and is typically only used when the person doesn't want to show any sign of entry, i.e. spies, crooked police, crooked lawyers, private investigators, etc. Nobody picks locks to burglarize homes. That's nonsense.

In my opinion any lock you have to make a tool to pick has a dramatic bonus to security in practical situations. Unless your being specifically targeted they tend to go for the easiest target. And whats safer for a thief? a lock that you can look like its just worn/finicky when unlocking while picking or one that you are obviously not using the key.

They also have an extra 2 looking bolts on the top and bottom of the door frame on the side this is mounted and 3 locking bolts on the top, centre and bottom on the other side of the doir frame. Also the frame is completely secured on an concrete frame which has been put there just for the door during construction.This combination is commons in new buildings and in house made from the 80s onwards, other hiuse they have only the look with a commons thick wooden door. I don’t know why we have them but i guess they became popular when during 80s and 90 s in italy we had alot of mafia bombing and terrorist bombing on the street.Now they because the normality!

Reviewing older videos of yours: wondering if the Chinese tension wrench has the notch in the end of the square tip specifically to slip past the wire to defeat the trap pin? Has someone asked this yet?

[@StanislavG.]

After watching a bunch of your videos, i came to the robust conclusion that the best security is security by obscurity :) I was aware of this before, actually... A friend of mine has an older model Suzuki Jimny, and where we live these things are commonly get stolen by bedouins and other entrepreneurial neighbors. So the guy put a simple solenoid valve on the fuel line and an obscure hidden switch to open it. Got two attempts on the car, in both cases the car was abandoned a few hundred meters down the road. The second time though he got his windshield broken by a rock and pee on the steering wheel :))

Nice lock design, really secure yet so simple mechanically! Definitely hardest 4 pin lock I've seen

[@JAKEWJONES]

The keys from the movie: The 5th Element!!

[@eddyflo2978]

Bravo sir for such keen eye 👏👏👏

[@markleng67]

Did you have to disassemble the lock to determine it's inner workings before picking? What a unique lock!

[@lockpickinglawyer]

Absolutely, I took it apart first! The key to my picking is forming and maintaining a picture of the inside of the lock in my mind. You can't do that unless you intimately understand the mechanism first.

[@josephdestaubin7426]

I knew the answer to that question, like no doubt whatsoever!

[@CadetSparkleWolf]

Oh wow! Those keys remind me of a lot of visual puzzles I’ve come across! I believe The Room had a scenario where the keys were shaped like that, but had a few columns that had to be rotated in order for one key to open multiple locks.

[@RAkers-tu1ey]

Wow! A lot of thought went into this one.Great pick.

[@ExecutorQ3]

Well, this is the first one i actually wanna buy even after watching it picked and gutted. And yeah, "simple" :D

[@schogaia]

You sir are really cool!

[@lockpickinglawyer]

:-D Thanks.

[@NicholasAarons]

Fantastic Lock & Picking. Keep up the great work. Nick.

[@lockpickinglawyer]

+Nicholas Aarons (Nick Mini) Thanks

[@rem45acp]

The lock geek in me just got so overwhelmed with the key shape and the traps in the lock. So cool.

[@RAkers-tu1ey]

I wonder if this lock is susceptible to a shearing torque attack when the brass pins are below shear? thoughts?

[@rootbeer666]

Did you have to take apart the lock first to make the trap pin tool? Would someone who has no knowledge of this lock's internal function be able to pick it?

[@0xbenedikt]

To answer the second question, I would be pretty certain that the answer is no. It's just too obscure to get it picked without prior knowledge of the mechanism.

[@scottc6012]

Simple but effective I believe is the story here. I would love this lock on my room door, I live in a multi tenant home lol

[@shadowsandfire]

Awesome lock design! Hats off the the one who designed it!

[@cloudfannotthatcloud8306]

Amazing. You make every pick look easy. Are there any locks that have defeated you, or at least slowed you down a little?

[@lockpickinglawyer]

Thanks. Something to remember: When I received this lock, the first thing I did was take it apart and internalize the mechanism. I also picked it twice to confirm that I could do it before turning on the camera. Once you see my video, I've done my recon on the lock, and already established that I have a working plan of attack. :-) As for locks that have defeated me (for now), there is a LONG list. I couldn't even begin to list them here.

[@SoulDelSol]

@@lockpickinglawyer do you get frustrated if you can't get it? It must feel great when you do though

[@gtk-locks714]

Now thats what i call a lock.

[@lockpickinglawyer]

:-)

[@danielroglich3309]

That was awesome . Simple my foot .only had to make a special tool and pick each pin 16 times and hold down middle the entire time, but totally simple lmao. This was a very interesting pick brother . Ty for showing it to us!

[@jurgmanx4644]

I bet there is a swiss made varient of this lock. The 5th element vibe is strong with this one. Adding this to my gotta pick list! Thanks LPL!

[@Charlie-wq1gi]

Nice pick. It seems to me you really have to have some control while using a 'straight' wiper insert to manipulate the pins or am I missing something? Also, could you mod the pins in this to have serrated and spool types in it? Or would it make no real difference in the pick?

[@lockpickinglawyer]

Thanks. That straight wiper probably added 30% more time to the pick... I was picking from 4"+ away from the lock. It was the only way to keep my hammy hands from taking up the whole frame! Security pins would definitely add some complication to the pick, but not that much IMO.

[@superdupergrover9857]

interesting approach- low pin count to reduce cost, but go hog wild on anti pick measures. i wonder how the opposite would fair.

[@progamertwo-oh-oh-one890]

Maybe a 8 to 10 pin lock with reduced antipickin

[@sauergaber]

Anyone who wants to see that that should check out his 503 video with the Dom lock

[@towerclimber7277]

Wow... I was trying my best to visualize what exactly was going on... Thanks for the enlightening me lol, very interesting lock and video

[@nunocspinto]

Well, that's the lock I have in my house. Glad to see that's very hard and intrincate! Here in Europe this kind of lock is very common. Nice video!

[@tahwnikcufos]

"Aziz... Light!"

[@Angelmukwa]

Did Iseo have a corresponding sales bump after this?

[@brodericksiz625]

Our garage door has very similar locks... it's actually encouraging seeing that they're not that fast to pick

[@anthonybost8646]

You are simply amazing!!! Great Job!
