Use a little pen torch to apply a little heat and that ill release the locktite. Sometimes you can heat the tip of a screwdriver very hot and just transfer heat to the screw (if you don't want to risk putting heat directly to a lock itself. Heat is your friend with locktite. It save on the drawing blood factor and it saves screwdrivers also.
Took bill with his nice calming voice to pick this lock within 20 minutes. Fairplay to bill. I have these locks on all my doors. I hope bill does not try to break into my house. As i would have to make him a cup of tea before he gets in. Thanks bill for letting me know these are good locks. Ive sent you a box of plasters.
@PHILL DIXON I had Willenhall Lock and Keys of steel mate. All come in from China now. Same as Era. ABS and Ultion. if not the whole lock most the parts. nothing like it used to be
A lot of us are just swapping to these better locks to help protect our homes. Isn't it great that someone like yourself is helping the scumbags out there to break into our houses by giving them a detailed instructional video on how to pick the locks. Thank you so much, you must be so proud...
@@scottwright6822 It shouldn't be a surprise that there are bad people in the world and you have just taught them what to do. We have just had 6 break ins here in the last 2 weeks.. Please just think of the consequences. That is the point I am trying to make.
@@Jeff.Nitrous And there are lots of locks that are trivial to bypass - this isn't one of them but we only learn that by defeating them. A miscreant with the skills to pick this lock (rare, most prefer to break things to get in) can learn everything in this video by buying one and taking it apart.

Bill, I am a master technician. One of the tricks I learned to loosen bolts, screws and nuts, is to tighten what ever you are trying to break loose, just wait for a very slight movement in the wrong direction. After that the object will loosen much better.

This was the video that made me choose my exterior door locks. If BB takes that long to get in, it's very very difficult to pick by mere mortals. For your average light-fingered type, unpickable. If only the keys were nicer to look at than the black nylon bow.
Was wondering how long it was going to be until you did one of those. These are the locks I've got on my house and I'm glad that a pro like yours took a while to pick it.
Yes, putting them back together is the challenging part (and it's why I have a bag of random pins and springs from locks I couldn't get back together!)
I really appreciate the extra effort being put in to getting the sound of the picking on video so well. It must be a pain in the rear to pick around that setup, so thanks man, good form.
Great video, this style of dual Yale is becoming widely used across the UK with the installation of new PVC doors. However I noticed the one I have installed has an interactive section in the very tip of the key.
Modern Leveller PVC... doors? I will never understand the silly things done in the UK. Reminds me of PVC dinnerware from the 70s. Please tell me there are steel ribs embedded in it.
I just got my picking set. Did all the transparent locks with it. I felt confident. I unlocked few standard locks also. Then I tried the same lock but longer with more pins. And I couldn't do it.
Had one of these jam up on me in the unlocked position, the key would not turn past a certain point in either direction and was firmly stuck in the barrel, this key does not break as such it just keeps bending in all directions, luckily i learned that these locks can be snapped from the internal side so i snapped it and gave the remnants a swift blow with a hammer and drift and broke off the cam in order to extract the rest of the mechanism. I replaced with the same lock btw as they are really good overall.
replaced a euro cylinder lock with one of these guys. 40 quid lock. nice to see its a difficult one to crack. only bought it cos it was the only one that had anti snap lol
I have a major issue. I believe a skeleton key was stolen from some maintenance people and now, everyone room is being broken into when they are not around. Is there a chance changing from a basic 4pin euro lock to a dimple lock would likely stop the skeleton key? If not can you give me some advice?
Well done Bill, Loved this on as these are what I've got on my external doors :) just finished my 10yr old Glenmorangie at the weekened you reminded me i must get some more :D Great video and look forward to seeing more, feeling inspired again and need to dig out my beginner lock picks and start learning some more.
...and now, finally, I think I've figured out what the weird half-cylinder pick in the sparrows classic set is for. It looks like It's for manipulating sliders. Thanks Bill.x
Thanks for the great videos, I'm into vaping, but I've always wanted to try this so I have ordered 2 lots of lock picks for me and my friend, he's ex, forces and our picks come with the see through lock to practice on so I can not wait..lol..all thanks to you..ps this is for only our locks if we can do it. I can't even do a lock that's the size of my finger tip but watching ur videos, we will get better, thanks again for your good videos.
I wondered that. I also wondered if they had made it so there was a pin at the back holding the locks on either side into the middle cast piece, so you had to turn the key to remove it. That would have been an extra antipull feature. Oh well
I seen a tv detective pick locks with hair pins in 12 seconds lol. Reality is much different isn't it. Well done always been interested in locks. Have a Smith here now who is just drilling it out.
As always Bill, thanks for the great video! A side note for you, and I will be completely understanding of those who may down-vote me. Just because people are so insane these days, you may consider muting, what to us, is clearly humor at 16:59. I know, I know. Just a thought, guys. Keep up the great work, Bill! I learn so much from you and so greatly appreciate all you do!
Would be really useful to see a test. I'm worried that they look like the break line takes the whole front barrel with it, including pins. This is surely a vulnerability. Particularly when you've got front and back doors identically pinned. Snap off the back door cylinder, identify the size of the pins and sliders, make up a key. And your in. Hence most anti snap locks have the sacrificial break line a few mm back from the front of the lock, so you only get the first pin. Also so you can still get in with the front pin.
superdupergrover Hey guys there are a few slider locks picked on other pickers channels. I suggest looking at pottie314 his last video was the pick and gut of a Supra-C real estate lock. And he does such a good job explaining it too. Cheers & Happy Pickin!!
superdupergrover sliders are stationary "finger" pins, the groove is just like the bitting on a key, the fingers ride in the groove lifting them to their shear line exactly like regular pins.
Yale's maximum secury euro cylinder picked open in one attempt and took less than 10 minutes. The locks in Bill's naughty bucket must be formidible locks indeed.
It's impressive that a lock you can pick up from a hardware store gave Bill that much of a battle. Also don't be put off, it's all down to practise in this game.
The lock Tumbl3r picked was the Yale Millenco Magnum (AKA as the Yale Superior), not quite the same as this one which is Yales flagship lock, the Platinum
evil0h1 the yale superior is actually a better core, it has the same 2 security pins and is a 7 pin not 5 pin. This looks like it could still be very easily raked
@15.23 you split the ext with centre and interior a small pin falls on the tray measuring about 1.5 mm x 2mm on reassembly where does this go, I presume it’s why the ext key won’t turn now I have reassembled it ( it does when the ext lock is separated) . Any help would be appreciated 👍
Controlled breaking (snapping) models are all similar, like the Abus Bravus. If you want the best cylinders available today they are: Abloy Protect 2, Dom Diamond and Keso 8000 Omega Premium. If you have one of these you are safe except if your door's frame is of wood instead steel, then do something against a lever attack
Yale TS007 Platinum 3-Star .. I have just bought 2 of these key matched but I think not to many lock picking burglars out there the biggest risk is snapping, any body with a lever and a mole grip can snap a lock in a minute for that reason I was disappointed that the lock doesn't have a sacrificial section, these 2 locks cost me £120 and without seeing a video of someone trying to snap one I don't know the strength of the anti snap. It would have been interesting to have heard Bills opinion about this.
No because only people that have developed these skills like locksmiths etc can do this, my point here is any person with crude tools can snap a lock in less than a minute so for that reason I would like to see if it can done on the Yale***
At least now I know not to buy that lock. I will just keep wirking on my current setup which is getting closer to being impassable without blowing up the door. Thanks for the good work, sir.
Thanks, Sam! Oh, BTW it is called LockSport and is one of the largest communities on the Internet with many millions of participants. There are International organizations, as well as over a hundred LockSport community forums. Several dozen large companies hire thousands of people to supply tools and equipment to the LockSporters. There are even International competitions held every year. So, thank you for your encouragement!
If this was the thumb turn version, would it be still be susceptable to a Sparrow bypass tool that can turn the cam? Or is there something to prevent that on these 3 Star locks? I don't understand why standard thumb turn cylinders allow direct access to turn the cam 😲. Update: Seemed a bad idea, but realise that it serves a purpose on standard cylinders; allows the key to orientate the thumb turn ready for use.
I wonder if you could make something that covers the outside of a core, similar to your pusher, however this would be something you would push the core through so you don't have to risk losing pins. In effect, your third hand.
i work as a software developer and sit in my office and watch LockPicking videos on YT...pls someone stop me, i don't even own a picking set... ps: pls make a tutorial on how to handle laser cut sliders!
How does that insert deter drilling? I'm gonna guess that is a abrasion resistant material. I'd imagine a blow torch and a well placed hammer blows into the fastener while hot would work if very desperate but you managed to gorilla it anyway. Never tried it on something that small but works wonders with other stuff. Although do so in a well ventilated area like outside, red loctite has some nasty stuff in it.
Some retailers are referring to this as a 22 and even 24 pin 🙄. Maybe they think that a double sided key means double accounting the number of key pins and slider pins, then adding more for good measure 😂.
All our doors in our flats have these locks, and after watching it being picked, I was a bit alarmed at how easy it was, but then I have tot remember that this is Bosnianbill doing the picking. I have personal experience of what it takes to get through these UPVC doors with their multiple points of engagement and those locks. couple of years ago there was an unfortunate incident and a resident died in the flat and the police used their big iron 'key' they were banging on that door for ages, in fact for over 30 minutes it sounded like an earthquake. they did get in eventually the door, and frame were totally fubar and they actually secured the door till it was replaced with a chain and lock run from the railings opposite the door, as no other solid point remained. In hindsight either side of the door were two windows, which they could have put through in seconds.
I would say it is not bad, but there are a lot of better options available. When you consider that the lock is one of the last barriers keeping intruders at bay (as well as protecting your family & all your stuff), cost should not be the first consideration. Here are some options: locklab.com/home-security/which-lock-should-i-buy/
There is a saying in among the computer programmers world: If I code, there is always someone who shall uncode. In my early days, 1966, I developed and implemented a computer software package for ASSA STEMAN Security Systems. I learned a lot about LOCKS and LOCKING DEVICES ... I don't know how good are they now or whether they still exist? Quote: THERE IS NO COMPLETE SECURITY. ALL WE DO IS TO MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT. For most lock cylinders the simplest is to drill the cylinder to open and then install a replacement. It is the most effective and the most economical. Most House Burglars avoid such cylinders, however, even such a cylinder is not safe from the drill.
The best are: Abloy Protect 2, Dom Diamond and Keso 8000 Omega Premium but don't forget to install a good defender like a Disec or Azzi Fausto, British don't use defenders on their doors.
it being a 007, maybe you should have used a vodka martini (shaken, not stirred) to steady your hand:). Great rundown of uses for third hands too - I'd thought the background noise was treefrogs previously (bearable) but a neighbour with a chainsaw... set loose the gun carriers:)
damn bill I do like to hear those clicks, but I love all of your videos you don't need to change a thing good effing job on that lock and thank you!!!!
Probably used locktite "red" (yes, I know the color is blue, but that has little relevance) on those initial screws; a little heat may have helped it come out a little easier... maybe. :)
Nice picking Bill! Very nice lock to! I really enjoyed watching you pick this lock! I am going to have to get some locks with sliders because I have never been able to get one as of now but hopefully I can get one soon!

Use a little pen torch to apply a little heat and that ill release the locktite. Sometimes you can heat the tip of a screwdriver very hot and just transfer heat to the screw (if you don't want to risk putting heat directly to a lock itself.
Heat is your friend with locktite. It save on the drawing blood factor and it saves screwdrivers also.
Got one of these on my front door and now feel quite safe. 10 mins for you to pick it in a lab gives me a high confidence level.
So true. If it took this guy that long, it'll do for me!

It's nice to see that not all locks "fall open" in the hands of a artist :)
TS007 is the British Standard. There are 3 ratings with 3 star being the highest. It is actually called a Yale Platinum 3 star.
I was surprised to find that's true - I always thought our British Standards started with BS :)
2LeftThumbs that's BS 😉
@PHILL DIXON doubt it, ERA is in Willenhall and the ERA 3 star are made in china lol, nothing is made in UK anymore

I've just bought one of these so am happy to see it's not a quick job to pick.
I have one of these on my front door and have always puzzled at the key and how the lock would be picked
Not really related to the topic but I love your voice man... It's so soothing.
I sometimes think the most challenging part of these picks, are taking the locks apart :)
not to mention, putting them back together, and working.........
not to mention to not to bleed out..

I really appreciate the extra effort being put in to getting the sound of the picking on video so well. It must be a pain in the rear to pick around that setup, so thanks man, good form.
Great video, this style of dual Yale is becoming widely used across the UK with the installation of new PVC doors. However I noticed the one I have installed has an interactive section in the very tip of the key.

I just got my picking set. Did all the transparent locks with it. I felt confident. I unlocked few standard locks also. Then I tried the same lock but longer with more pins. And I couldn't do it.
Very informative Bill thankyou very much. Keep up the good work
Had one of these jam up on me in the unlocked position, the key would not turn past a certain point in either direction and was firmly stuck in the barrel, this key does not break as such it just keeps bending in all directions, luckily i learned that these locks can be snapped from the internal side so i snapped it and gave the remnants a swift blow with a hammer and drift and broke off the cam in order to extract the rest of the mechanism. I replaced with the same lock btw as they are really good overall.
To make it easier to remove locktite held screws, use some slight heat on the screw and they will come right undone with no problems.

just found your channel and it has completely consumed my weekend.what a great channel well done.
Welcome to the tribe
If it takes you this long to pick that’s the one I want to use. How’s it hold up to drill and brute force.
10:56 My small trick is if not turn... tray to turn in/close and then turn up/open/out ... some time this working very well
Thanks for the great videos, I'm into vaping, but I've always wanted to try this so I have ordered 2 lots of lock picks for me and my friend, he's ex, forces and our picks come with the see through lock to practice on so I can not wait..lol..all thanks to you..ps this is for only our locks if we can do it.

thanks for doing more picking with the mic next to the lock!
Really helpful video I have a very similar Yale lock with pins and sliders, I'll try your tip with the sliders, great video as always 👍👍
What if it had been a left-handed screw? ;->
I wondered that. I also wondered if they had made it so there was a pin at the back holding the locks on either side into the middle cast piece, so you had to turn the key to remove it. That would have been an extra antipull feature. Oh well
You are the master of locks.
I seen a tv detective pick locks with hair pins in 12 seconds lol. Reality is much different isn't it. Well done always been interested in locks. Have a Smith here now who is just drilling it out.
What a resistant piece of technology!

That "Laser cut" seems to be milled, actually. You can see the round tool marks. Or it's just a naming convention?
Bill you are the best,picker!!!
Thanks for the video, is it possible to re key these with a standard pinning kit or are they specifically designed for these locks
ive brought this lock after seeing you struggle with it. id like to see the anti snap tested, be nice to know it does break as it should.
Would be really useful to see a test.
I'm worried that they look like the break line takes the whole front barrel with it, including pins.
This is surely a vulnerability. Particularly when you've got front and back doors identically pinned. Snap off the back door cylinder, identify the size of the pins and sliders, make up a key. And your in.
Hence most anti snap locks have the sacrificial break line a few mm back from the front of the lock, so you only get the first pin. Also so you can still get in with the front pin.

thanks everyone for the help. i've got it now
Good trick with lock tight i have found, is to tighten it, then loosen.
You're a Master lock manipulator Bill! Why isn't this lock on the belt ranking list, is this more difficult pick than the Yale Superior dimple lock?
Yale's maximum secury euro cylinder picked open in one attempt and took less than 10 minutes.
The locks in Bill's naughty bucket must be formidible locks indeed.
There are probably a very small number of people in the world that could pick this thing. I know I never could and I'm okay with that.
It's impressive that a lock you can pick up from a hardware store gave Bill that much of a battle.
Also don't be put off, it's all down to practise in this game.
Just checked out his channel, impressive. Although I suspect he may have picked that a few times before...
The lock Tumbl3r picked was the Yale Millenco Magnum (AKA as the Yale Superior), not quite the same as this one which is Yales flagship lock, the Platinum
evil0h1 the yale superior is actually a better core, it has the same 2 security pins and is a 7 pin not 5 pin.

Great pick BB, thank you. Why is the sacrificial section BEHIND the cam? On other anti snap cylinders it's BEFORE the cam
I want the most difficult to defeat lock,
It is this style what are the best options available ?.

At last! Someone who knows that Glenmorangie is a superior scotch :)
Any afficiando of whisky knows full well that Glenfiddich is THE superior Scotch...
Yes, but it's pronounced Glen-MORR-an-jee (NOT Glen-morr-AN-Gee or Glen -morr-AN-jee). Takes its name from the place it's made.
So how would you rate this Bill compared with the ABS locks? ....anti pick, bump, drill, snap,
This was the reason I replaced my ABS Mk3 with the Yale :-

Can you change a yale 6 pin lock for this kind of lock as long as the cylinder is the same 70mm 35/35
Can these locks be re-pinned to be key alike?
At least now I know not to buy that lock. I will just keep wirking on my current setup which is getting closer to being impassable without blowing up the door. Thanks for the good work, sir.
what about the glass windows a meter away?
Well done!
I came across one of these 2 days ago and kinda wonderd on the difficulty!
Totally out of my depth! LOL

Why didn't you put it in the vice to disassemble?
Well that was strange to see my somewhat small home city randomly mentioned on a lockpicking video
I still have no idea what you did to a sliders but very nice lock, and very very nice job Bill.
how are you tensioning here?
Temsion weight?
Can anyone explain how the anti-drill pin would work?
Andrew Casey I'm not an expert but I think it is just a hardened steel pin not soft brass like the others
it will deflect the drillbit from the shearline
chefgav1 so does that mean if you've lost your house key and called a locksmith, he won't be able to get you in by drilling your your own lock ?
This is a very good lock gives you a lot of time to be prepared for intruder
I was looking out for this one thank-you!
From the point you mentioned that neighbour, he's all I could focus on for the rest of the video
If this was the thumb turn version, would it be still be susceptable to a Sparrow bypass tool that can turn the cam? Or is there something to prevent that on these 3 Star locks? I don't understand why standard thumb turn cylinders allow direct access to turn the cam 😲.
Update: Seemed a bad idea, but realise that it serves a purpose on standard cylinders; allows the key to orientate the thumb turn ready for use.
I wonder if you could make something that covers the outside of a core, similar to your pusher, however this would be something you would push the core through so you don't have to risk losing pins. In effect, your third hand.
I don't understand this video, so, is this cylinder a good one or not ?
i work as a software developer and sit in my office and watch LockPicking videos on YT...pls someone stop me, i don't even own a picking set... ps: pls make a tutorial on how to handle laser cut sliders!
I have one in the collection....the sliders can be tough to app for me.
How does that insert deter drilling? I'm gonna guess that is a abrasion resistant material. I'd imagine a blow torch and a well placed hammer blows into the fastener while hot would work if very desperate but you managed to gorilla it anyway. Never tried it on something that small but works wonders with other stuff. Although do so in a well ventilated area like outside, red loctite has some nasty stuff in it.
inserts are harder than most drill bit metal so the pins just mangle the end of the drill bits.
I just fitted 2 of these and one of them the key is tight to get in I have to jiggle quite a lot is this normal
As Ave would say, why are you using your hand like a vice when you've got a vice?
I was going I sleep. Then Bill uploaded...
Some retailers are referring to this as a 22 and even 24 pin 🙄. Maybe they think that a double sided key means double accounting the number of key pins and slider pins, then adding more for good measure 😂.
Excellent video, Thank You for sharing.
I think this is a great lock for business.
I enjoy your videos a lot thanks for making them
Have you ever picked a vehicle ignition lock?
All our doors in our flats have these locks, and after watching it being picked, I was a bit alarmed at how easy it was, but then I have tot remember that this is Bosnianbill doing the picking. I have personal experience of what it takes to get through these UPVC doors with their multiple points of engagement and those locks. couple of years ago there was an unfortunate incident and a resident died in the flat and the police used their big iron 'key' they were banging on that door for ages, in fact for over 30 minutes it sounded like an earthquake. they did get in eventually the door, and frame were totally fubar and they actually secured the door till it was replaced with a chain and lock run from the railings opposite the door, as no other solid point remained.
In hindsight either side of the door were two windows, which they could have put through in seconds.
The cops never enter through a window even if its insecure and easily boarded up afterwards. Its health and safety!
used to hate cutting those keys. especially when I customer walking in at 5 mins to closing and wants 6!
tell them to jog on lol unless you charge £10 per like me.
So whats your reviews it s safe lock or not?
I would say it is not bad, but there are a lot of better options available. When you consider that the lock is one of the last barriers keeping intruders at bay (as well as protecting your family & all your stuff), cost should not be the first consideration. Here are some options: locklab.com/home-security/which-lock-should-i-buy/
Great picking Bill as always..
There is a saying in among the computer programmers world: If I code, there is always someone who shall uncode.
In my early days, 1966, I developed and implemented a computer software package for ASSA STEMAN Security Systems. I learned a lot about LOCKS and LOCKING DEVICES ... I don't know how good are they now or whether they still exist? Quote: THERE IS NO COMPLETE SECURITY. ALL WE DO IS TO MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT. For most lock cylinders the simplest is to drill the cylinder to open and then install a replacement. It is the most effective and the most economical. Most House Burglars avoid such cylinders, however, even such a cylinder is not safe from the drill.
I have a ultion, I have heard its easier than yale to pick, paid top dollar for it, any info or input on the subject, thanks,
The best are: Abloy Protect 2, Dom Diamond and Keso 8000 Omega Premium but don't forget to install a good defender like a Disec or Azzi Fausto, British don't use defenders on their doors.
Bosnian bill would be great if you could explain sliders to us in a video.
it being a 007, maybe you should have used a vodka martini (shaken, not stirred) to steady your hand:). Great rundown of uses for third hands too - I'd thought the background noise was treefrogs previously (bearable) but a neighbour with a chainsaw... set loose the gun carriers:)
Blue loctite responds well to heat from a heat gun.
Just a suggestion for mics, a contact microphone would probably convey whats happening with the lock much better.
1:23
Don't worry, you could put the mic in a blender and it would still be half as loud as your intros manage to be
damn bill I do like to hear those clicks, but I love all of your videos you don't need to change a thing good effing job on that lock and thank you!!!!
What level is your lockpicking? I got mine to 43 but I don't think I'd be able to get this open without using a million picks.
Sure would like to see you put that back together.
We had to snap one of these which did snap with our tools as the owner lost the keys
had to bust out the brownelles magnatip kit on this one
Probably used locktite "red" (yes, I know the color is blue, but that has little relevance) on those initial screws; a little heat may have helped it come out a little easier... maybe. :)
well done Bill, nice pick
Nice picking Bill! Very nice lock to! I really enjoyed watching you pick this lock! I am going to have to get some locks with sliders because I have never been able to get one as of now but hopefully I can get one soon!
Very nice lock. Great pick!
Hi Bosnianbill, does anyone sell practice locks for cylinder locks with side bar?
Check with Jimu57, he occasionally sells them in his eBay store. www.ebay.com/str/locksportusa
