- The location for the shackle retainer pin on three different profile Lockwood 245 padlocks. All measurements are within 1/2-1 mm. I had a case of verbal dyslexia and called Mr Lockwood Dr Lockwood:-) You now have a doctorate in Locktology.

My teeth were grinding when you started hammering on the beautiful Lockwood !!!
Despite knowing that you’d restore it to its beautiful state...
Great video... never get tired of seeing Lockwoods in the hands of an expert craftsman... great stuff!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks John. Have a good week:-)
I was nearly crying when you were smash the hell out padlock, but it looks are good as new now mate. Great job Paul. 👍
Thanks Daz. Have a good one:-)
Great video mate. A very thorough explanation of how to dismantle these beautiful locks. I might just have a go at cleaning up one of my old ones now I have the confidence to find the plugs. Thanks mate😀👍
Thanks mate. I look forward to your refurb:-)
Great demonstration and information on the old lockwoods
Thanks PW. Hope ya well mate:-)
Nicely explained mate, will help out the Butcher and anyone else who is looking for the dimensions of the plugs.
Funny how the bright brass colours differently compared to the older dull brass.
As soon as you come back from linnishing the 245, it almost sounded like Peter Brock doing a twin legger up a nearby street lol
Great video mate.
Thanks mate. Yeah, that's a bloody hoon from up the street. Can't moan too much though, i was just as bad back in the day........damn, i was probably worse. lol. Have a good one:-)
@@crankylock7844 lol We're all like that at some stage 😆😂🤣
Great information and work!!
Wonderful how you make these locks new again!!!
🐈👍🐈👏🐾
Thanks Chris, Suki and Slinks:-)
paul springett 😀🐈🐈🇦🇺
Cool to see the different profiles. Good practical info once again. A wealth of knowledge from an old timer. Lol. I need a brass linisher, brass hammer and a screw extractor now. 👍😎
Thanks Donz. I wouldn't say wealth of knowledge mate. There's one or two out there that have forgotten more than i will ever know. Have a good one mate:-)
@@crankylock7844 haha, you're still doing good mate. :)
Those are nice looking locks!
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Iowa:-)
What a beautiful job, was very sad when you were beating up the lock, but it turned out beautifully
CHEERS Mate
Thanks Thumper. You have to have faith in me mate:-)
That back linished up really swell. Especially after you hacked that back! lol!!
Looked worse than it was. The dings were controlled hits. I knew how far i could stretch it. The video magnifies things to look worse than they really are. All good in the end:-)
@@crankylock7844 Would a mallet (plastic or wood) work any better?
Great video Paul lots of information 😁👍
Thanks Vic. Stay well mate:-)
another great instructional video thanks Paul : )
Thanks mate:-)
Great video Paul
That screw extractor was what I was missing when I did the GUARD display,I managed to get it out but not salvageable so that was 1.5 mm?
That refurb long shackle looks like a "POPCORN and Not For Gran Video " Mate,what a snap on that shackle Whoa baby!
You casted that shadow at 902 that was spot on Paul, brilliant,you pulled it easy mate bloody hell!
Awesome finish
Cheers!
Thanks Mur. Yeah, the smaller the bit for the shackle pin the better. One can always enlarge slightly if need be. Have a good one mate:-)
Nice looking Lockwood's. Yale made a similar design in the 770's series.
Thanks William. Not familiar with the Yale series of padlocks. I'll leave that expertise to your good self:-)
3 beautiful lockwoods Paul , you definitely need to know what your doing to drill a hole in one of them locks and i wouldn't have the guts to try it lol
Thanks Pete. Stay well:-)
Great informative video👌 I was very concerned when you started belting that beautiful 245 but it turned out nice.
I'm currently working on removing a 234 & 245 core and replacing a couple of shackles so this is an excellent guide.
Are the replacement plugs and shackles still being made?
Have a great night Paul👍😀✌️
I would love to know this also. New shackles definately.
Thanks KE. Have a good week:-)
Great video as always mate lots of great info. Cheers
BTW its C raig i changed my channel name mate..
Thanks Craig. Have a good one mate:-)
@@bulletproofdesigns5972 Thanks for the heads up mate:-)
Bewdy Paul
Didn't realise there where so many different profiles of the real old lockwoods
Thanks Kaos. Yeah, they came in a variety of designs back in the good ol' days. Have a good one mate:-)
Great stuff as always Paul.. Been meaning to message you.. regarding that package you wanted me to forward... Sorry it's taking so long.. things are just kinda tight now.. not to mention all the other "Crap" going on as of late..
No worries. In your own time:-)
Thanks Paul..
Some really neat stuff😀🔓👍
Thanks RK:-)
Awesome thanks heaps mate
Thanks Butchers:-)
How old are the J series profiles? And does the J mean anything?
Gary, How old? not sure, they were the second restricted profiles available after the original ML1. Guessing perhaps late 70's early 80's. JA stood for John Andrews, a Locksmith/ Engineer with a business in NSW. He also made the famous key clippers that would clip out - rather than cut - both pin tumbler keys as well as flat steel Lockwood projection lock keys. We still have both machines. He went through many hundreds of key profiles to arrive at the JA profile, he was happy with the end result, as virtually no other existing key blank could be altered to the JA. Regards, Brian.
Thanks mate. Yeah, not much to say. Brian has pretty much given you the info on the JA. A wealth of knowledge and a genuine craftsman of the the trade. Cheers:-)
@@brianhignett8954 Hi Brian, how are you? Sorry for the delayed reply but YT didn't notify me of your reply for some reason.
OK, I heard rumours that JA stood for John Andrew but the others in the series - JB, JC, etc. - made me doubt that.
Speaking of key blanks, while plugs with the J profiles can easily be had for a price, the keys are as rare as hen's teeth. Is there any way to source either key blanks or cut keys for the J profiles?
@@crankylock7844 Hi, Paul, that's true. Brian's always a good source of knowledge.
@@two_tier_gary_rumain Hi Gary, The "J " series restricted keys are no longer "restricted" as such, as the patent has long run out. However, there are very many Master Key systems out there still on the "J " keyway. We have notified all owners that these systems are no longer protected, however most MLA members still have these systems, and most have decided to still "honor" the restriction. We still ask for signatures when cutting keys, and we don't cut other Locksmiths "J " series keys, but refer the customer back to the original Locksmith. Most who still honor the "J " series would not supply blanks, I feel sure, but I can't speak for all members of course, so I believe that key blanks and precut keys will still be difficult to source. Regards, Brian.
