Masterlock's entire business model might be making locks so bad that LPL spends "hundreds of dollars" buying more of them.

I really like Master locks, myself.
They're one of the few locks that make me look like a competent lockpicker.

[stephbenson]

I've said it before but. The most damning thing about this exploit/vulnerability isn't just the ease with which it can be done. It's the fact that someone comb-picking a lock looks exactly the same to a casual observer as someone using a key on a lock.

[Know-Way]

Actually, it makes sense. Master Lock made millions of these and shipped them to distribution warehouses. LPL's original review crushed sales of the lock, so now there a 50 year supply stockpiled. The redesigned ones won't hit stores for decades.

The packaging has better security than the actual lock

Back in the sixties I showed a Lockwood rep. here in Australia, a comb pick I made that would open their "top of the range" padlock at the time. It was the 245 padlock. There was excessive room in the bible, allowing all pins to over lift. This was before YouTube, Locksport, the Internet etc. so the real world risk to their padlock was extremely minimal. We heard back immediately, that things would change, and to their credit, from then on all 245 padlocks had longer driver pins fitted in all chambers, preventing the comb attack. It's an easy fix if certain manufactures just did that, particularly on the higher security products, the cost would be miniscule in the scheme of things. Better still, do away with the flat bladed keys and plugs on high ended products ...

Masterlock never disappoint, they provide the higher level of bad quality .

I was at the lake this weekend and the bathroom facilities were locked with a 4 digit Masterlock. Having watched this channel for a couple of years, I knew it was worth a shot. Even with no experience at all, it took about 30 seconds and no tools to decode it.

Sometimes it feels like LPL is the only person keeping Master Lock in business by buying their products to see how bad they actually are.

[WalnutBun]

Pretty sure I commented this on that video, but I'll say it here too: IMO the biggest problem that a comb pick vulnerability presents is that using a comb pick looks like you're just using a key, meaning you can just do this in front of people and (unless they're paying very close attention for some reason) they won't even notice.

[adelheide]

I'm thankful for LPL because in his other videos, he said that lock companies saw him and made improvements on their locks. That is a company that cares about its customers and I am more than happy to purchase from them....and then of course there's the low end of the Bell Curve where Master Lock resides.

Just dropping by to say thanks for your videos that turned lock picking into a hobby of mine. Today i got locked out of my second house as i forgot the keys and had no tools, i found a windshield wiper rod and raked the front entrance, i had some job to do on the shed which has an 80's domus euro lock where due to the wall i couldn't get into position to rake it because the wire was twisting so i ended up finding some keys with similar keyway, one of them had a low cut last pin and succesfully used it as a bump key.
Apart from the shady part of these skills for one to have them, this hobby definitely save lives.

LPL comes back from a 2 week break just to remind us that Master Lock is still not to be trusted and makes locks that make piggy banks seem secure

[xiaoxiaoreed]

Thanks, I came across this video by accident, the photo caught my eye because I have these exact same locks to secure my truck tool boxes.. super disappointed because I thought they were great thanks for the video you may have saved my tools

I've had two bikes stolen in the past using a chain and a masterlock. None of them were cut and I was always confused how it happened. Seeing this channel explains a bit how easy it is. Been avoiding Master lock's products since. Sad to see they'll most likely never will fix their issues.

[rgsparber]

I like bottom of the line Master locks. They make great pull handles for drawers in my shop. And, they are so easy to remove too.

[d-obvious]

you've convinced me. masterlock is doing so well they don't need my support as a consumer. I appreciate your channel.. big time! whenever I have a lock that needs opening.. your my first resource when the key or combination has been lost..

I especially appreciate how well a Hilti nail gun opens most of the crap I need clear lol

[Archangel]

Master lock. It's like a master key in reverse - anything will open it.

[David-bzpi]

I'm glad you make videos like this. I was in Lowes recently look for a lock, came across Master Lock, and explicitly didn't buy their lock.

Nor will I, ever, except for practice purposes on my own lock picking.

The fact that Master Lock can't be bothered to fix a security issue on such an expensive product is very disappointing, and it's sad that they're still in business.
