Can a 6-pin key fit into a 5-pin cylinder. if that's what's provided in a rekey kit?

[shawn]

Was he putting the pins in the cylinder backwards according to the way he decoded it ?

[davidvigil]

What if your master key has a number 7 how would you figure that out

[Cristoforo]

Is there a pair of tweezers with a ‘hockey stick’ bend in it?

[pouncerminned]

Yo tip to make it but more secure. If you have the same numbers from lowest to greatest like u had there no need to add a bottom pin. The more master pins you put in, the more sheer lines are add thus making it less secure. Example 5 and 2 were on top and bottom, just don’t add a master pin to that chamber

You need to learn how to master key properly.

[scottkirsch]

Thanks I always wondered how to master

[piyber]

Can you master key the Kwikset locks that use smart key system?

[ekraszewski]

Are you keying cylinders for more than just one or two locks? If so, you had better use a proper master key system, preferably designed by someone knowledgeable in master keying. This involves generating specific cuts on the keys to prevent crosskeying.
Also, most locksmiths don’t pull the cap off of a new cylinder. If there is a concern with which pins are in the cylinder, just pull out the plug and dump everything. You can reload the pins and springs using your pin tweezers and a follower. It is also always best to use the “anti pick” pins, especially on mastered Kwikset. They’re easy to pick in the first place. Master keying just gives the picker more shear lines.

dude u just gave out the key code to your complex...

[edwardavalos]

What kind of pad were you writing on, that was super cool!

[Jim]

I apprecite your different strategy but it does seem like extra work to pull the bible when you have the keys already too. But why oh why would you not like anti pick pins? They add so much more security? Otherwise thanks for the vid!

"all the employees that have a master key, like maintenance and security can get into the apartments..." -- yep, and now anyone else that can get a key custom made can get into the residences you maintain since you showed the magic numbers ;-)

The master key only works if the Tenet it doesn’t change the lock this is nothing worse then having a PTE and the master key doesn’t work

[stevengabriel]

Thank you for broadcasting the master key pin code to your apartments on the internet. I'll be by next week to help myself to some new TVs and jewelry.
