This method really works, but If at first you try this method and it doesn't work, do the following: 1. Make sure you are using the right size tool. There are 3 tools in the kit in 3 sizes, colored red, blue, and yellow. The red is the smallest, then blue, then yellow the largest. The two most common sizes for locks are red and blue. Some locks will accept both, but only one will work, and usually the smallest size that fits, in this case, red. Most tubular locks on safe are designed for the smallest size, red. 2. Push the tool into the lock, then use your fingers to push each of the seven pins firmly in against the lock. 3. After each round of pushing the pins into the lock, turn the lock in the direction to open while pulling it open simultaneously. Many safes require turning the nob counterclockwise. I was having problems opening a safe but found out I was using the blue tool instead of the red, and the pins were not fully pushing against the lock. Once I switched to the red tool and pushed the pins against the lock, it opened instantly.
Disculpa u como le puedo hacer si abrí la caja y cuando la cerré no quedaron los pines en el lugar correcto entonces meto la la ganzua pero si le pongo el perno no agarra
Nice one, though I'd suggest leaving one or two elastics in place to keep the picks against the tensioning core as you pick initially, and hold the picks in position for impressions.
Right on, let me know how it works out for you. You may have to take the bend out of the individual wires as well. Some models have been in the wires to keep a little extra tension on them and some do not at all. Let me know if you run into any problems and I'll do what I can to help you out.
Your video is very helpful. Better than all the rest that I have seen. I was having trouble my technique. Your detailed video showed me what I was doing wrong. And helped me a lot . Thank you. It’s the best video I have came across.please keep making them. I’m now a Subscriber
Awesome, I am very glad to hear it. I have e taken a break from making videos due to some personal stuff going on but I will start again as soon as I can. I will also be starting a second channel that is more focused on tutorials and teaching so as soon as that is ready I will make an announcement. Also if there is anything you are having trouble with, please feel free to ask questions. I'll try to get that second channel going as soon as I am able to do so. Thanks again for watching and I'm glad it helped.
I had that same idea a few years ago when I got the huk 3 piece set that that is apparently from. I didnt get too far with it though but always thought someone better than me could make it work. I'm happy to see I was right. Lol thanks for the great video!
Thanks very much! Yeah I thought about it at first when BosnianBill did the pro1 video but I never really had the need to buy tubular impressioning tools but I got a really good deal on the huk set and thought well I guess its time I do this video lol. The trick is really getting all of the resistance off of the pick tips so you can feel the feedback and they can spring back at you.
Excellent video, very instructional. But is there a tubular impressioning tool that works on the ace 2 lock. And how much tension should I use when I spp this. Example like pressing an elevator button. Something I can relate to in my head. Thanks
These tools will actually work on Ace 2 locks, as will most other tubular impressioning tools. Some can just be a bit fiddly, and it's easier to pick one pin at a time. You don't need a ton of pressure just enough to push the pins down pretty much the same as when using a key. The Turing force you use is more important, but again, it doesn't take a whole lot. The most important part is the resistance on the tool. Like with these, it would be how many rubber rings you put on or on other tools it's how much you tighten the collar. The best way to learn is just to get the feel for it by practicing.
@@NothingPicksLocks ok brother, thanks for all the info. I didn't even know u responded till know. I ordered those huk tubular from gangbang or something like that. Been almost 3 weeks and I am still waiting. I will try what u said and let u know.

@@doktaahwho8858 I just gotta say I love your name! The doctor and Data were my favorite characters in star wars! Lmfao I read somewhere that there was a doctor who/ star trek TNG crossover comic book where (Matt Smith) the doctor and Amy follow some cybermen into the star trek universe because the cybermen were trying to find the Borg because they were basically Borg that split apart and then left for the doctors universe... not that anyone really cares (but me I guess)... the joke at the top was a rehash of a meme going around with a picture of a dalek with the caption "ohh I love r2d2. He is my favorite character in star trek!" I'm sorry I'll stop now... I just wanted to say nice name.
I left the tool intact, added some rubber bands to make the 'feelers' more stiff and spp'd the lock. It's similar to what you've done, maybe as a first step before straightening the 'feelers'? thanks
What can i use for a tub turning tool for spp it? Have the goat and my frigging hand is always in the way. Plus i think i am getting the tension wrong to. Any advice bro?
Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of the goat. I find that it tends to be too big for most locks, and it slips off a lot. If it does fit the lock you are working on, then great, you can use it. I agree that working around your hand can be a pain in the ass but there are ways to hold it so your hand is kinda out of the way. If you imagine turning a radio dial with your middle finger on top and your thumb on the bottom, then your hand is off to the left ( if you are right-handed ) and you can work in the space between. Let me know if you don't understand what I'm trying to say there. Also, apply semi heavy tension, and if you can't push any of the pins down, then lighten up on the tension a bit. At that point, just go around the circle poking each pin until you find one that's binding, push that one down until it clicks, and keep going. Eventually, all of the pins will be set, and the lock will turn.
@NothingPicksLocks Thanks again brother!! That's without a doubt the best explanation on how to go about picking or using tension I ha e ever gotten. Complete with a visual scenario to get it correct in my mind. Your the 1st person that has been smart enough to include that. Even when I have asked some of them for a comparison, the best 😂 I got was "yea like that".
Yes absolutely, I only had it set up like that because I thought it was the best way to make the video so people could see what I was doing. The way the lock is mounted does not make a difference other than comfort while picking.
It is possible with modifications, but it definitely depends on the type of lock. There are a few different types of tubular locks that tension on the outer ring, and depending on which one it is depends on whether it would work or not. There are ways to modify the tool to make it work, but I don't know of any tools that will work out of the box on an outer ring tensioning lock. Are you asking for hobby purposes or are you actually locked out of something?
When they first came out, I bought 1, Assumed that's how you do it, Then I saw the Impression Method, Wonder which was actually first, I think SPP? They can also be Bumped
Hey man I've been watching your videos I have a similar but different shaped lock on th front I was wondering if you had an email I could send a pic if you could help me out finding the right tools to pick it. Thanks!
So when the lock opens the pins are bottomed out in their cambers? You push each pins until it can be pushed no further and that constitutes its open position? That seems like a poor design.
That's not exactly how it works, each pin needs to be set at the intersection point between the key pin and driver pin. Once the lock is opened and you rotate it between the pin positions the back part of the lock is what the key pins are sitting on. As soon as you rotate the lock to the next position the pins can be pushed further down than the set position.
I get the technique now, you just got unlucky with the demonstration 😅 I'm sure you've done it in a few seconds before comparatively to the almost few mins fail lol

whats spp?

would your single pin method work with the lock mounted horizontally? straight down in the vise makes it look easy.

Awesome video man. Thanks
Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed it!
Thats really slick! Nice work Nada :)
Thanks!
So question if you tool get baby up buy new one ? Or ?
You think it would work if I just got a regular rubber band and just made it small by overlapping it
Yea, it should if I understand you correctly.
Yeah but with the single picking method once you get it.. stop mid turn and lock the tool to copy a key do you know what i mean ?
Yes that is absolutely what you would do
Is there anyway to use this type of pick on an outer ring tension slot?
Never mind the tension Rod can be removed by the upper set screw

@@susantroy11 Yep the tension rod can be removed but then you are tensioning on the pins. It can absolutely still work though depending on the lock

What kind of lock is the tubular lock at the very top?

Can you post links on where to buy the lock pick sets?
I got those tubular picks from banggood
I got mine off eBay
I got mine off Gfuel
got mine from amazon
It's allways clock wise?
It could be either way, it depends on the lock and the placement. Whichever way you turn the key is the way you should pick the lock.
Can these open vending machines and retrieve the money or just open it to access the food. Thanks
Good question. That absolutely depends on the machine, but it is not a good idea to do either unless you own the machine.
Donde se puede conseguir

Yes absolutely, same technique in the opposite direction will relock the lock.

Was watching lockpicking lawyer and I'm like wait a minute. He's too big of a channel too show us something like this 😅
so in other words, you have to break it open like a piggy bank. isn't there a key you can use to just open it and have it slide out like a drawer?
Im slightly confused as to what you are talking about. Could you maybe elaborate a bit?
@@NothingPicksLocks isn't there a key you could use to open it instead of drilling open the lock
@@Fel1xF7W was there something drilled in this video?
You didn’t attempt the 3rd lock and that’s the type I’m trying to pick
This should work on all tubular locks that the tool will fit in.
Can u try the pro 1
I would if someone lent me one, but I refuse to give Peterson any money or support due to personal reasons.
Coke machines here I come
Yea, probably not a good idea lol
