        Came here just for the lockpicking lawyer comments, was not disappointed

      • +6

        yeah dont buy any locks at all according to him

      • -7

        Lol wth. I'm calling BS on these examples. Is a Professional series "Master" lock really designed and engineered that bad…

        • +5

          Almost all combination locks can be picked in a minute once you know a trick or two.

          • @Ademos: Most much faster than a minute. A Peterson mini-knife will open most in a matter of seconds.

            • @airtime: Does it misgender them to trigger the lock?

              • @Daabido: You insert the mini-knife between a combination wheel and the lock body. Peterson mini-knifes are about 0.1mm thick and fit these small gaps. Push the knife blade in to the correct depth and push upwards and it will lift the locking bar, allowing the shackle to open.

        • +1

          It's not a matter of bad engineering, you just need to move the pins and turn the barrel - you're just replicating what the key does and it's not too difficult once you get a feel for lifting pins.

          • @x x: These combinations locks do not have barrels or pins. You may be thinking of a traditional pin-tumbler lock mechanism which is not used here.

        • +7

          Lol wth. I'm calling BS on these examples. Is a Professional series "Master" lock really designed and engineered that bad…

          You've convinced me with your own well reasoned arguments and obvious deep understanding of the subject.

          /s

        • If by 'bad' you mean they can be bypassed and opened in seconds or decoded in less than 1 minute and opened; then YES, they are engineered that bad.

      • If the lock is shrouded then how do you shimmy it?

  • +67

    I've been watching some lock picking lawyer. Masterlocks are terrible and offer little to no real security.

    • +27

      could say that about all the locks in his videos

      • +10

        There are some that you can just shim it, not pick it. Big difference.

        • +10

          If the lock requires a specially made tool to open, it's going to stop 99.9% of thieves. LockPickingLawyer often features locks that need one.

          No lock is secure if you try hard enough.

          • +1

            @Cluster: This is why I stopped watching his videos - most opportunistic thieves aren’t going to have specialised tools that they have made and he pretty much disparaged every single lock because they couldn’t withstand his bespoke lockpicking tools.

          • @Cluster: special tool = angle grinder

      • +3

        Bilocks which are Aussie designed and made have his seal of approval even though he got in quickly.

          Most locks keep honest people honest.

          Yes,…locks are designed to keep honest people out !

          • +2

            @whyisave: People who steal things without locks on them are still pretty honest…ly thieves.

        • +10

          I think they're there to create a slight inconvenience so the crims won't bother to take the opportunity. e.g. I left my car unlocked and they went in and stole all my shit, if I had it locked they probably wouldn't have bothered, even though they could easily smash the window.

          • @bleeder: Even a D Lock wont keep the dishonest crims at bay

    • +18

      To be honest. The insecurity mostly comes from the thing that the people typically use these locks on. Tool boxes can be lifted and taken away. Padlock bolts are often secured with standard timber screws, etc.

      Padlocks are mostly just a deterrent against opportunity crime.

      • The padlock latches on my Rhino cargo case are attached to the case with pop rivets, which could be drilled out in a minute.

    • can always buy one to practice picking.

        The only sophisticated tool he has is the one Bosnia Bill made for him.

        • Nah I've seen him use some pretty unusual tools. The kinds of things even some locksmiths wouldn't have.

    Please suggest good and affordable locks?

    • Anything without the name Master.

      Lockwood (Assa Abloy). Available at bunnings. Costs more than a Masterlock but not too much.

    • +4

      Don't be put off by the ability to easily hack/pick/break a padlock. It all comes down to what you are securing, a cheap $5 lock will deter 99% of thieves and if what you attach the lock to is mounted on wood or in a wooden frame or can be kicked in/broken in other means then the lock does nothing to any real thief anyway.

      My brother and I used to collect padlocks when we were kids (sadly it was from building sites, sheds etc). We only ever took the lock as it was a bit of fun at the time. we made our own lockpicks from ground down hacksaw blades and used to also have competitions for who could crack the combo locks the fastest. Reality is most locks suck, from memory lockwood was the most problematic for us back then (though I am sure there are quite a few other good brands now)

    • ABUS 20/70 is good https://amzn.asia/d/eGyJisG The trouble is how do you define affordable? How valuable is the thing you're trying to protect? I have one of the above which I use on a hardened chain for bikes in the shed. Could they be stolen despite the lock? Certainly, but it's less likely and the insurance company has one less excuse to avoid paying.

        If it's out of air then ozbargain's favourite, Ozito, will happily provide a universal key, sorry, battery powered angle grinder that will get past and sub-$500 padlock. Just had to deal with that problem this weekend. There is almost nothing you can do if you want to have something/somewhere accessible if it's left unguarded for any length of time. If it's valuable enough and somebody wants it, they could get it.

        • I don't disagree, you're still only keeping out the honest thieves or at least the dim witted ones.
          In the end, padlocks are still only a deterrent, some just buy more time than others.

    • You don't know any bored high school kids, do you?

      It literally doesn't matter if the thief has some good bolt cutters or a battery angle grinder.

    Kiddo just started high school, so I looked around for combo locks. First thing I discovered is avoid the Masterlock brand. I think that most if not all combo locks are pickable, but some brands and models more than others.

    Kids were having their locks stolen in the first week… Masterlocks (cheapo basic ones TBF).

    After I broke into one of our Masterlocks after one video and a couple of minutes, I decided to have nothing more to do with their products.

    • Your comment bought back memories. As a kid in the 80's everyone had these combination locks that came in a few different colours https://i.imgur.com/i0xEkYC.jpeg

      I could crack them in about 10 seconds. A number of times is hit the bike racks cracking 20 or so then relocked the bikes back up with a different lock but in the same colour. Hilarity ensued when the bell went and everyone was trying to work out who's combo worked in what lock. :)

  • glad I read this thanks

    Master locks are unironically one of the worst locks you can get

  • -6

    I have read the comments but this is the "pro series" and I haven't seen any reviews on it to indicate it is just as easy as the normal master locks to unlock, who knows they could have incorporated everyone's reviews and made this lock to make it much better and hard to pick/shimmy.

    Is there any news on this particular lock? If so, can you please post video/link so everyone can see

    • I have read the comments but this is the "pro series" and I haven't seen any reviews on it to indicate it is just as easy as the normal master locks to unlock

      Happy to assist: Decoding MasterLock Pro series 1177.

      Going by Master Lock's own official website, the only apparent difference between the 1177 and 1177D that I can find is literally just that 1177D is "packed in carded packing for showroom display" (those display packaging sealed in plastic that hangs up and lets you see the product, but are annoying to cut open), while based on the videos the 1177 is literally the same lock that comes in a simple cardboard box instead.

      And going by this video How to decode any Master Lock Pro Series 1177, it's vulnerable to the same exploit as in the LPL video that @jpeg-jpg linked to (which is also part of the "Pro Series" anyway).

    Padlocks only have a few niche jobs left. They are functionally almost obsolete.
    The advances in portable power tools means any idiot can buy/steal an angle grinder with lithium batteries and cut through the lock in 10-15 seconds. No matter how much money you spend, they will never stand up to a determined thief these days.
    A generation ago people could rely on the noise, but it can be done so quickly now, they are kilometers away before you realise what's happened, if you even notice the noise.
    Padlocks should only be used in places people are constantly present (to watch each other) or have other security measures (cameras, alarms, etc). Padlocks should never be used to secure real valuables, just stuff that takes time/effort to move. They only provide a deterrent to gullible buyers these days.
    No matter how quick you get spending decades training to pick locks, the lithium angle grinder will do it in 90% less time and are readily available. A bit like AI making jobs obsolete.

    • Damn it. I just switched from using a padlock to welding everything shut.

      • +2

        sadly a weld is no match for good angle grinder either.

  • Europe does padlocks right. https://ils.org.uk/

    See these everywhere in Italy.

    • solid and robust, but trival to pick. definitely NOT padlocks done right.

  • With regard to comments about lock-picking and the like, one should always remember that locks are only to keep the honest people out.

    • +2

      So if there was no lock, the honest people would do the dishonest thing?

  • Don’t expect a warranty from this company as they send you back to the retailer and they fob you off.
    Lifetime Guarantee my ass. They don’t even reply to the follow up emails. So pass on this brand for me now.

    • +1

      You're supposed to go through the retailer.

  • Honestly anytime I see masterlock now I just think of the videos of a guy opening a brand new one and slapping them together opening it, I'm sure other locks are equally bad but I just can't trust them anymore.

  • I asked my brother (a cop) what sort of locks work best to stop thieves. He said get a BFD… a big dog is the best way to stop thieves.

    • He said get a BFD… a big dog is the best way to stop thieves.

      NSS.

      I don't think people are buying cheap combination padlocks to secure their front and rear doors at home.
