7 Pin New PacLock Pro Out of the Pack Pick

[@LockNoob]

Since this lock was sent to mea sealed in a pack, I thought it would be a good test of the new PacLock Pro 7 pin LOTO padlock. I’m pretty happy with my time ⏱ what do you think? Let me know in the comments 👍😃

[@fingerboardprogression8760]

Very nice!

[@davidbeecher9143]

I think 5 min is awesome. My skill level, that's a 5 hour pick...or guesswork.

[@parapicktog7734]

I never time myself, but usually take a LOT longer than it felt like. Often when I get an open on my last lock of the night I look up at th tv and not only is my movie over, but I'm over halfway through another. Time seems to pass differently when you're absorbed in opening a lock.

[@RWBHere]

Refreshing to see a US padlock putting up a decent defence. Seven pins does add decent complexity too. Well picked, Ash.

[@LegalLockPicker]

These Paclock pro locks are brand new, so odds are you haven't picked one before. That being said this is the first video I've seen from someone else picking straight out of the box. You did exceptionally well but you knew that :) I really do put a lot of time and effort with what I send over seas & videos like this + your sheer enjoyment makes it all worth it. Well done!

[@LockNoob]

It’s a great lock! It was a perfect opportunity to try an out of the pack pick... if it was going to be over 10 min I might just have given up, so I was lucky it worked it for me. You only get one shot at these!

[@AlbertLebel]

Very nice work picking that one, they are fantastic locks.

[@RuneInternational]

really great to see a loto being sealed. then you are sure no other keys are made. And with 7 pins the number of possible combinations should prevent any locks being made with the same code

[@LockNoob]

Yes, I never thought of the seal having that functionality 👍

[@tonyholt90]

I was holding my breath as you battled that 7pinner. Great fight, well done on that out of the pack pick 👍

[@LockNoob]

Me too lol

[@lockhackeruk900]

Very nicely done there :) I may have to add one of those to the list!

[@LockNoob]

Do it!

[@PocketWomen]

Excellent picking out the pack. What a beautiful looking loto padlock, great black colour, cheers

[@LockNoob]

Thank you 🙏

[@chriscapune7873]

Great picking!!! Nice Lunatic work 😀👍 Stay safe my friend 🐈🐾👏😷

[@LockNoob]

Thanks, I love the lunatic!

[@Leonslockpad]

great job Ash mate very cool lock👍🇬🇧😎😊👊

[@LockNoob]

Thanks Leon!

[@roysammons2445]

Great pick there with the out of the packet pick. It put you to the test and you came out on top. Great pins in there and they have that nice shiny look. 7 pins just to add that little bit more difficulty.

[@LockNoob]

Yes, 7 pins is certainly a lot harder but a fun challenge!

[@waynejoynes589]

Lovely bit of picking. Enjoyed watching that. 🤓👍

[@LockNoob]

Thanks 🙏

[@johnwickpick8621]

Excellent time only high skilked pickers will do that in under five muniutes. Beautiful done you have good technique. Thanks for sharing the excitment!!-!

[@LockNoob]

Thanks 🙏

[@curthatt6461]

Great pick! I didn’t know they came out with a pro. Gonna have to get one. Great little locks!

[@LockNoob]

I think so 😃

[@alexvanrijswijk2743]

I love this video! Most of the time you where picking I was watching the upper richt corner of the video. It was so cool to see the tension change during the pick.

[@LockNoob]

I actually watched the video back after reading tour comment and I actually never noticed before but it was interesting for me to see back what I did. When I first started picking I don’t think I ever changed tension like this on the fly, I just jammed it on and hoped for the best 😀

[@72cmcinc]

Great lock and great pick!

[@LockNoob]

Thank you 🙏

[@LockpickingsGal]

Great job picking and gutting!! Love PACLOCK’s!!

[@LockNoob]

Thanks! Is the package with you yet?

[@magicdave93]

Great pick and gut my friend 👍🔐

[@LockNoob]

Thanks 🙏

[@johnrich6928]

Great job, I think this is the first time I've seen what is definitely a first time pick.

[@LockNoob]

I do some out of the pack pocks now and again; I just don’t tend to buy brand new locks so it’s rare for me to have them in rhe pack!

[@ListentoGallegos]

I was having trouble picking this lock until I upped the tension a bit, then things just got a whole lot easier.

[@LockNoob]

That can sometimes be the trick!

[@-dystopic-]

Wow, that is really nice for an off the shelf kinda lock. Might to find myself one of those one day, that looked fun!

[@LockNoob]

Yes I would recommend one!

[@MA-lq6eb]

WELL DONE ON AN INTERESTING 7 PINNER👍

[@LockNoob]

Thanks 🙏

[@DAdamTrammell]

I got one of these last week, still haven't gotten an open yet. Been alternating between top and bottom of keyway tension. Guess I'm going to focus on top now. Thanks for the video!

[@DAdamTrammell]

And I just got it. Top of keyway was the way to go. Thanks again for the video!

[@davidbeecher9143]

Thanks Lock Noob, now I have an idea on how I should tackle that beast.

[@LockNoob]

I think it’s just being patient as it has serrated pins it just takes a little longer 😃

[@lockhackeruk900]

Very nicely done :) I think I may have to add one of those to the list!

[@LockNoob]

For sure!

[@Lockpicker1973]

Really nice lock. Great package. Only PACLOCK I have is the one from albert lebel. And don't know if I'll ever try to open it honestly. I consider it a treasure and don't wanna hurt it.

[@capcitpro]

Haha! It's hard to hurt a PACLOCK.

[@penfold7800]

But it WANTS to be spanked!!! Lol.x

[@LockNoob]

Yes Al was kind enough to send one to me too 😃

[@gantry289]

Nice job on the pick. I have a 5 pin one and it's a fun pick. I see by you're timer you did it on one lap! Congrats, I usually take 2-3 laps before I get an open....

[@LockNoob]

Lol thanks 🙏

[@garyg3617]

Think that would be a bit much for me in my early days of lockpicking. Great to see you pick it and hear your thoughts during the pick.

[@LockNoob]

Thanks 🙏 I’m glad there were indeed serrated pins as I certainly could feel them!

[@dustynwindy]

Now I know what I’m in for! Haven’t really spent any time with mine yet. Your pick was very methodical and done well. Great show!

[@LockNoob]

Thanks 🙏

[@ImGumbyDangit]

I have watched a few people pick these now, very nice lock. The Pro 90-A is challenging for a LOTO lock.

[@LockNoob]

Yes it’s fun! Anyone else do an out of the packet?

[@ImGumbyDangit]

@@LockNoob Yes @Nite 0wl

[@andyhalman996]

Oooo new shiny pad lock smell should have smellavision on mi phone 🤣😂🤣

[@LockNoob]

Lol

[@shadroid]

I got one of these and I'm not sure everything is OK. Two problems... running through the pins with no tension, I almost have to break the pick just to get 3 and 4 to move.... is that normal? Also mine doesn't appear to be guttable. Where the Allen screw is supposed to be in the shackle hole instead of a hex opening it's smooth like a divot in a rivet. No way to open it with an Allen wrench. Is that normal?

[@padskfoef]

Where did you get the vice that is holding the lock ? I have been asking this question a lot and on difrent channels plz help out

[@LockNoob]

I just searched for ‘panavise 350’ and looked for a UK seller

[@reidwitt1168]

Nice picking man! Watched the whole thing

[@LockNoob]

Cool! Thanks 🙏

[@dagger_4d]

I got this lock yesterday, still no luck getting and open.

[@QueryBuns]

What is the name of the vice that you use?

[@LockNoob]

Panavise 350

[@penfold7800]

Nice loto lock. 5 minuites for a first sight is impressive to be honest. 7 pins is always nice to see. Have you found an 8pin 8slider lock worthy of your new pinning tray yet? (It looks nice by the way)

[@LockNoob]

Thanks 🙏 and a lock like that sounds hard!

[@ccmogs5757]

Nice job mate :)

[@LockNoob]

Thanks 🙏

[@twjohnson1203]

I probably missed it but was this lockpickfight for the world championship? That lock's gotta mean reputation, knocked some other pickers out in the first round!

[@LockNoob]

It’s a mean one for sure!

[@SilktheAbsent1]

Awesome job, man! Hey, were the springs different? I know that on the regular (6 pin) version, they use two different tension springs in the bible to make it more bump resistant. I'm not sure if they do on the Pro.

[@LockNoob]

I wish I’d checked, sorry!

[@nolansykinsley3734]

Is that a Pro core in their standard body? All of their LOTO Pro locks I see are thermoplastic bodies instead of aluminium. **edit** Ah, found it on amazon, not listed as a LOTO lock with the aluminium body, called the 90A-PRO, the 7 pin PRO LOTO locks are the PL410-PRO series which are about 5$ cheaper. I guess I could have just waited till the end of the video where you gave the model number out as well....

[@davidbeecher9143]

Master LOTOs are plastic. My understanding is with a plastic body, it can be smashed and pulled apart. Some sort of OSHA rule I was told a long time ago but never tried to verify. Maybe as LOTO's have only one key, if you left the jobsite and forgot to unlock, it can be bypassed with a hammer but that seems kinda wrong too. Not sure why Paclock went aluminium, but sure is nice to look at!

[@PocketWomen]

@@davidbeecher9143 That is the reason for plastic bodies. The cores have to meet a standard that's why Master Lock cores in the 410 loto's are better than what they use in their other padlocks. The Paclock 90A has been brought out to be in direct competition with the American 1100 loto Padlock, cheers

[@davidbeecher9143]

Pocket Women, thanks for confirming what I was told O so many years ago about the plastic body. I know from a LPL video about the core Master uses and it makes sense. But is there a reason that they now make LOTOs with metal bodies? Don’t know how long it would take a 15 oz framing hammer to open one. Now I need to add an American 1100 series LOTO so I can start my collection of LOTOs. I didn’t know it existed. But it’s on my “Gotta have it.” list now.. Thank you.

[@2011mendo]

Wow. As a new guy to this sport, damn your good!!! Not sure I understood but half of what you said,,, I can see I have a long way to go!!!. My question,,, how can you tell exactly what pin your working on, & , you hit #7, then 6 and so on, why did you have to go back so many times to the same number you already had done? Sorry if a rookie question, but,,, I am a rookie.. Thanks

[@LockNoob]

It’s a good question! If you have only standard (tube shaped) driver pins, usually you only have to pick them once. If they are spook pins or serrated pins, they need to be picked more times per pin

[@RAkers-tu1ey]

Imperial Tool? Sounds a little ostentatious to me. Nice job on the pick though. Pac locks can be tricky... typically good tolerances.

[@LockNoob]

Thanks 🙏

[@maxidriver]

may i know what's the brand of your vice? i guess it's the same of bosnianbill and it looks perfect for this hobby

[@LockNoob]

Panavise 350 😃

[@maxidriver]

@@LockNoob thanks i just got a amtech, that i guess was your previous vice. is there so much difference? is panavise so much better?

[@JohnLeePettimoreIII]

That keyway is kinda fat. Should allow a wide range of tools to be inserted into the keyway for picking. If it were a narrower keyway it would certainly be more impressive.

[@LockNoob]

Yes a paracentric keyway would be more challenging for sure

[@AlbertLebel]

Very nice work picking that one, they are fantastic locks.

[@LockNoob]

I agree Al
