#PugsPicksLocks #LockPicking #Locksport #LeftHanded #SouthOrd #MasterLock #630D #ACE #CelebratorySwivel
In this episode we'll go over how to decode a three or four dial combination lock that has false gates. We'll be using this Ace branded, brass lock and this Master Lock as examples, but this will work with any similarly constructed lock.
Lock:
Master Lock - 630D
ACE - Brass 4 Dial Combination Lock - 5094172

Nicely explained and decoded. I agree the older and more worn a combination lock is, the harder it can be to open.

Thank you!
And yeah... The worn locks give so much less distinct feedback.

Oh man I need to get or make a decoder! Very cool upload homie! Just what I needed😜👏👏🤘😎‼️

[@pugspickslocks]

Thanks, man! I use gutting shims to make decoders.

That was great Pugs! I still havent gotten into combination locks yet! Been interested but i dont really have the feel... I have a couple decoder tools, maybe ill start there! Thanks again!

[@pugspickslocks]

Try a Master Lock 630D as a first go. I think you'll find it easy enough to open, while really learning what the gates feel like at the same time.
