This is very helpful. After watching Lock Picking Lawyer a lot of times, I understand how it works a lot better now.

When I was a kid my Dad gave me an old heavy padlock to play with in the hopes I would learn something while I figured how to open it, since he'd lost the keys many years ago. I had free roaming rights in his workshop, and he gave me some basic insight into the workings of padlocks, so with the aid of some 1/16" piano wire, pliers and a set of warding files, I managed it. I still have that padlock and the piece of piano wire, 64 years later.

Thank you for this most informative video. I have just ordered a dog. A large one.

Between watching your videos, LPL's, and a few other ones, it's makes me realize that "secure" is such a relative word. Most ads for locks are for the people who don't know any better and want to feel good. Very eye opening! Thanks!!

The absolute best standard 6 pin lock picking video I've ever seen. Probably the best one in existence. Simple, very clear and visible, not too much talk and confusing words. It's very simple like a that kind of lock is. Lock picking only works as good as your understanding of the lock you're picking

[veedubgeezer]

Having watched quite a few lock picking videos on YouTube recently after being suggested a LPL video, this was really educational. I never knew what "binding" and "set" actually meant. Thank you.

I don't know how many times I watch those secret agents on TV as a child and tried opening door locks with a paperclip or a metal nail file. Later in life I had a general understand of how locks worked, but your video totally explains everything I never knew about lock picking. I just have one question. I am 61 now. Do you think it is too late for me to start a life of crime, or should I just stick to sitting in my recliner eating chips and my diet Coke and watch James Bond do it on TV? :) Thanks again. God bless. James

Thank you so much, I love watching the Lock Picking Lawyer's videos but he never tells us how to actually do this!! At least now I feel like I'll know what's happening a bit more, thank you!!!

[ohionative]

This was a very informative video. The aspects I wasn't understanding or the terminology I didn't understand are now very clear. Thank you.

Zipping (raking) was very useful at work when people turned up for their shift without their keys. I never did show anyone else how to do it. Now I'm retired, so I use actual keys to get into things.

The clear acrylic lock helps so much to understand what's going on. Thanks for the great video

[joburr]

Dang, this guy’s replying to every comment even after three years. That’s dedication

[jorgecampa]

You are very talented. Anyone who looks at your videos can learn a lot. All they have to do is apply themselves and master their skills. Great job explaining the basics .

[abhiwltya]

You just helped me open my study table drawer after 6 months. Thanks to you and GBU.

[chemicalimbalance]

Just turn the joystick until you find the spot that the controller doesn’t shake.

[bjw]

That was well done, the clear lock was a great visual aid.

[apxpandy]
