Tutorial - picking disc detainer padlocks with simple homemade tools

[@dr-evil]

Woo I picked my first small DD using the above technique!

[@DrBint]

:D

[@shanehhh799]

Love your idea and homemade tool, brilliant. I have given it a try, so far ,still unable to open a lock yet. I think my homemade tool needs a finishing touch on it and also i am new to disc detainer locks and lock sport overall. Will continue to try and re-watch your videos for inspiration and instruction. Thanks a lot DrBint!

[@Прохожий-ы8к]

Nice pick for not difficult China locks . Excellent video.

[@LockpickingsGal]

Great video!!! I’m going to give mine another try. Happy pickings!!

[@DrBint]

Thanks mate, I apreciate that. I kinda just sat down and started rambling to be honest, really think I should've put more planning into this but I'm glad you got something out of it :o)

[@BG.SS100]

Really appreciate your hard work man👍

[@NicholasAarons]

Fantastic Video Dude. Good to know it can be done like that. Keep up the great work. Nick.

[@waddac2]

I cannot wait to get home for the weekend to play around with it as not working weekend, so should get some quality time with the lock and pick, my lads birthday Sunday so wont get much time to play then, but hope to crack it. Thanks again for everything Mike, your a star ;o)))))

[@waddac2]

Cheers Mike buddy. Great video you did for me and will save it and try pick the lock. Will study and play over the weekend after my lads birthday party is over. Thanks again matey for all your help, and yes if I have no joy, wont set fire to it but will shoot my first ever lock LOL!!!

[@ratatosk2515]

Watching your videos I finally opened my first DDlock (Bosi) and later I was again on one of yours, when I opened my second (Berrylion) They are the best DD tutorials on KZbin. Thank You

[@DrBint]

einherjer awesome! Thanks very much and well done

[@johnlbales2773]

einherjer "how to tweak your disc detainer" on YT

[@redmarcon2380]

Excellent video as always. Really enjoyed that.

[@DrBint]

Good stuff mate, glad it makes sense lol. Search high security padlock on ebay and sort them by the cheapest first, you'll find stacks of em!!

[@FusionDeveloper]

Thank you! I just bought one of these locks.

[@DrBint]

You'll get it open mate, only 3 discs to turn back and they're all together with no zero discs in between... so at the very least you should be able to luck it open! Keep playing with it and you'll get the feel for discs that're already set, that's the main thing... and keep your movements very slow, moving by very small amounts, you can't go wrong. You'll feel discs click pretty solid when they set, really is easy when you get the hang of it :o)

[@buskingkarma2503]

I love improvising with tools, can save you a few quid as well lol anyway nice one, I knew there would be a simpler way to pick disc locks with out buying a tool I can't afford thanks for sharing your knowledge 👍

[@rj8665]

Thanks for making this video. I know I am a little late LOL I had a cheap disc detainer pick and it broke the very first time I used it. I should say, it broke the first time I inserted it since I didn't get a chance to use it.

[@DrBint]

Aww thanks :D I don't feel I explained things adequetly to be honest, it was more just for a guy on one of the forums cos I sent him identical picks. My 2-part tutorial on these using the 2-in-1 picks is a lot more detailed, I think this one will make a lot more sense after you've seen those too.

[@DrBint]

Haha I know the feeling... was on there yesterday and I wanted a pile of stuff, settled on something cool though. Hopefully I can get it picked when it arrives :D

[@DrBint]

Cheers steve! Should give it a blast yourself, they're lotsa fun to play with. :D

[@zachrogan6745]

You`re good bro. .very helpful

[@FusionDeveloper]

"40MM Solid Steel Shrouded Shackle Padlock Security Heavy Duty Lock Locker4 Keys" from ebay for $7.09 shipped from Hong Kong. I haven't received it yet, I also ordered the tool, but plan to make my own and try that too.

[@jaymerillo433]

Really good but i cant seem to find the right material so i can make my own pick and tension rod

[@waddac2]

Cheers Mike buddy, I want to crack the fecker and the one I first bought.... if not the Tv will be in the garden that happend to pass through the living room feckin window LOL!!!

[@WellfortheBird]

I'm a newbie, and have never given disc detainers a try. The only disc detainers I have seen in videos, have false gates. It that the case with those locks? Is it easy to feel the difference betweem false and true gates?

[@tonyband.4334]

Are these types of square type keyed locks harder to pick than regular padlocks if the person whos going to pick it is not an expert?

[@DrBint]

Thanks mate! They're not as scary as they look... well, the cheap ones anyway :D

[@0_Ka-Bar_0]

what if the tension disc is bottom one? On my Disc Brake lock first disc just spins.

[@laurenarndt464]

Never too late: The reason for the importance of the shackle orientation is because you want the sidebar pointed south of the keyway laying horizontally.

[@NoctisMotus]

Nice. Great to see homemade tools at work. Thanks for sharing.

[@ssjktjessica6]

Hi mate, I’m thinking of starting to pick locks for my new hobby, can you recommend a set of picks and tensioning wrenches for a newby, great videos by the way 👍🏼

[@DrBint]

Sparrows tuxedo (original not royale). Their picks aren't the strongest but they're decent quality and finished well; with sleeves over the handles they're super comfortable too. Wrench selection is fantastic and will keep you covered for loads of stuff. I actually carry a set of their wrenches in both my everyday kit and my proper kit. Worth it just for the wrenches and case. When you figure out what picks you like to use, upgrade to multipick or peterson if you can.

[@ssjktjessica6]

@@DrBint thanks for swift response ,and I'm going to purchase that Kit you recommended , who'd of know that looking for information on changing my Euro cylinder in my front door as got me hooked 😁👍thanks again

[@DrBint]

Cool, what brand is it? Lemme know if you get it open! If the front disc isn't a driver it might be a bit of a swine but you'll get it with a bit of persistence. :D

[@shellyanne3051]

are the chinese made Disk Detainer Padlock Picks any good mate for this sort of thing, just started getting into picking..

[@johnlbales2773]

shelly anne yes, but look for videos on doing mods on them to get them tip top shape.

[@muhammadjazwanabdulaziz1120]

[@johnlbales2773]

[@cyrano138]

This video is fantastic...

[@xPAHERx]

great video sir.

[@grahamconquerghc2358]

Need one now

[@AdrianWeber]

Very well explained!

[@rolandolobido5637]

How get it back to lock mode ? Sorry for my English

[@DrBint]

Rolando Lobido Just close the shackle and turn the discs back to their original position.

[@malaroop5877]

the reason the you put the lock with the pin below so tha t the retainer tools can drop down because of gravity. I saw in another video

[@raniermontemayor2647]

now i can steal my neighbors laptop

[@cyrano138]

Going through more of them now. Thanks again and check your inbox on KP. I sent you a message. Great stuff here, again.
