- THE MANUFACTURER APPEARS TO HAVE FIXED THIS ON NEWER LOCKS.
I made this video a couple years ago. I was curious to see if they fixed this flaw so I purchased the same lock last month. The lock has the exact same part number. They seem to have fixed the easy picking "feature". I'm still trying to break in to it but it's definitely not the same as the old lock.

we got a lock from a thrift store because i like to solve them with no contexts, and this helped me to finally figure out the code. thank you
I have this same type of lock but from dudley and in early 2020, I had put a combo by accident somehow and couldnt open it. I tried picking it, figuring out the combo. Once I got so frustrated, I tried breaking the lock with a flat head screwdriver but no luck.
As I am typing this, Its October 8, 2023 and just 20 minutes ago I found this lock burried in a drawer full of clutter. I thought to myself why not give it a shot and I found this video Thank God. It took me 2 minutes and one try to open it and IT ACTUALLY WORKED.
I almost couldnt believe it because back then I accepted that I would never get this lock open after so many trys to figure out the combo and so much effort to try to break it but it took me 60 seconds to open it 3 years later and I kid you not my jaw dropped and I was stunned for 5 minutes. Im actually excited to use this lock again since I dont have to pay for a new one 😂. Thanks for the tip mate.
Ha! Glad it worked. I think the company fixed this issue on the newer models. I actually bought a new one to test it and I couldn't break in. Just FYI...
I was able to pick the lock while I was still watching the video. Ha ha. Thanks so much!! Found this lock in a pile of junk tools, and was hoping to use for an escape room
Thank you for this video. The good news: I forgot my code word & my 1535wd lock is now open. The bad news: I must immediately buy a more secure lock. Doing the steps in this video slowly I found out just how simple it can be to reopen this lock no matter what you formerly set it to. These locks aren't cheap. Price apparently isn't everything.
LOL - Hopefully someone who finds your belongings secured by this lock and has bad intentions...has not seen my video.
I just tried this on this lock that my 10yrld locked us out of our refrigerator with (don't ask), and it definitely didn't work. The bottom letter just kept spinning and never got tight like in this video. I guess I have the one and only well made Master Lock. Lol
That's odd. For me it worked every time. Just be sure you are applying enough pressure on the clasp. There's always a lock cutter tool from Home Depot :-) Good Luck.
You're not the only one, and yes I'm putting pressure on it.
i had success with starting with 2nd ring from bottom. mine was stuck in out position, btw, and did by putting pressure on the latch with a screw driver.
Hmm so i just did it and i realized you have to pull as hard as you can and then turn in
Same here. Didn’t work at all.
Mine is for school but I forgot the code. This worked better than I could have ever expected. Thank you so much. You are a lifesaver
can confirm, this trick works, just takes a lot of pressure, don't worry about taking a break from the pressure.
thanks man I've had this lock for 3 years because I forgot the combination, but I just picked it in 30 seconds
FYI, yes they're very easy to pick, but Any of these rotary wheel locks are pathetically easy to pick. You buy them only if you're going to use them around honest people. Because most people know how to pick them. But if you want a lock that has a lot of security to it and will actually protect your locker, what you want is to buy any of the rotary dial 3 digit combination locks commonly available on the market. These locks have been around for many years and they're really very very difficult to decode, but it can be done. The reason nobody can get into your locker using a rotary dial 3 digit combination lock is because it will take a thief that knows what he's doing a couple of hours to decode it and by then he'll probably get caught.
Great video! I forgot the combo to my lock and this saved me so much time in getting the thing open
This helped me into get into one of my cases. Scary how easy. Thank you for this information
I had a tough time feeling for the tightness in the row that i was decoding, so what i did was spin each row until the rows above became stiff, worked like a charm!
Great. I bought a new lock recently and they must have fixed it. I couldn't open it. I'll have to try again but looks like they may have finally addressed this issue in the newer locks. Maybe the company saw my video :-)
@@AlleyPickeddid it work?
Thank you so much it worked. I found a old lock in my room and I forgot the code and I needed it for school thanks so much
Thank you! Just bypassed my old lock that I used to have on my school gym locker when I was like 9
It worked 100% with my lock. I could definalty feel how hard it was to move the dials at the letter t and then t and then u and then i found the real code. I put the silver hook around my toe while doing it so that pressure was kept the whole time took about 3 minutes HIGHLY recommend thanks so much!
Glad to hear. For some people it doesnt seem to work.
I need to know how to reset the combination if the lock is locked open.
Nice little vid. I generally trust the negative reviews on Amazon more that the five star which seem to be given almost reflexively. Thanks for sharing mate.
Mate, did you say grandson? You're stickin' it well, as we say here!
Thanks Mark - and thanks for watching!
Thanks I had forgotten code and picked the locked in less than 3 minutes, reset code and all is well
Thank you. I definitely didn't write suak when I was setting this for my daughter, but that's what it ended up as.
lol
Glad im only using this to keep elderly people out of my stuff at my Long term care home as they wander alot and sometimes they wander off with the weirdest things. I also have a tendency to loose keys and waiting on maintenance to remove the lock is really annoying especially if I have been away and I locked up every single thing that is of importance like my laptop, tv remotes in my closet. When I lived at a youth shelter I always used a key lock and had it on my wheelchair with a bunch of random keys… a good way to keep people confused is to get your lock key remade as well and keep it on your keychain so it doesn’t say “master” or whatever brand your lock is.
The most annoying thing is now many school boards are making it mandatory to use Dudley locks which I have a hard time opening but thankfully Dudley has come up with a one number combination lock which is great for anyone who has difficulty getting conventional 3 number combination locks open. Now I don’t know how secure they are but they are better than nothing at all.
Thank you for taking the time to post your comment. Tom
This is true of about all models of Master Locks. Takes very little still to open them, not just combination locks but their key locks also.
Thank u sooo muuuch this video hope me to open my lockk because i forget the password
Thank u
Exelent video
FYI...newer locks have fixed this easy picking issue...
When you talked about the lock, I thought "maybe do one at time," but then thought, no, no lock company can be that stupid. So I continued watching.... yeah, they can.
lol, yea, you would think they know about this.
It worked. Thank you so much 😂
i have a similar lock. it’s the 1534d master lock with words, but this trick doesn’t work on it. please help!
Me too bro I’m tryna figure it out rn
@@dtx.leoo_5540 I barely remember making this comment, but I did eventually solve it. After tons of prying with a screwdriver I guess I chipped some of the plastic away because the red ink was now visible. The lock now looks very obviously cut up though.
This absolutely works!
Really you can just apply constant force to the shackle and just keep twisting all the dials until they lock in place
Thanks for the info. I was actually looking to buy one
WORKED THANKS!!
I own 12 of these lock every thing after I saw this video I picked one Lock that I didn't have a code I took em a through then in garage
Hah, went on youtube to learn how to set the lock. And right after that video was this one. Good info. Maybe I should be surfing youtube before hitting buy. $9 gone forever!
LOL - Don't feel bad. I bought 2 of them
midi002 to get the kids
How do you do it if you have the hook out but it's locked
I need to know that too. My lock is locked open and I don't remember the combination 🥴
Im not sure if my son broke his lock or what, I have experience doing lock work including picking some high end locks, and for reason I cant even find the first letter, none of the letter get "set" theres no tention and every letter feels the same, normal on these types of locks I can do it just by feel, but this being a junk lock, Im guess the problem isn't the code, I think somethings broke inside
That's very possible. If you are pulling on the clasp and never feel a difference then you may be right, something broken inside.
yeah that's exactly whats happening, I spin the dial and the letters just click the same and I have proper tention on the clasp, the bottom end and top end of the lock seem "jiggly" not sure if that's normal cause this is the only one I have of this model, its over a year old and my son used it all last school year, but he says he screwed with changing the combo
Reply
i tried but even though the numbers stuck their were multiple that stuck on the same row and even then it still didnt opean what should I do
I recently purchased a new version of this lock. I couldn't open it either. Looks to me like they fixed the easy open feature :-) Older locks opened easily.
Bad! Tried many times with multiple amounts of pressure. even had my friend help me and still couldn't get it! Now I don't have a lock :(
Maybe the company saw my video and fixed the problem 😁 worked for me with 2 locks.
Cannot feel any difference on that first letter, the others have definite stiff areas in more than one location around the barrel. any suggestions?
Are you pulling the clasp outward while turning the letters? Perhape you do not have enough outward pressure.
Hi it is only working for the last letter and not for the rest what do I do?
Newer versions of the lock may have been fixed. I have had other people tell me that this method was not working. It does take a sensitive touch. Maybe you can have someone else try this method to see if they have better luck.
thanks a million! well, actually $56.00 ;)
What if the shackle is on the outside and it’s locked
I’m having the same issue, I can’t seem to get it to work. I think I might just have a computer generate every possible combo and just try them on it whenever I get bored.
Is the masterlock the same as the Dudley? My sons going back to school and we lost the piece of paper that had the combo on it and this doesn't seem to work, either that or I just suck at picking locks lol

@@AlleyPicked oh okay, I was wondering why because I was trying it and I couldn't get the feeling like you said. Where it kind of just clicks in normally and you can tell that's the one that's there. It got kind of rough and annoying but it didn't work no I guess I'll just toss this one out and go get another one any recommendations for child's locker?
very helpful thanks
So how you pick the newer ones?
I bought one to test...haven't figured it out yet.
I can get it to work
maybe masterlock need to update the firmware
just got mine and I already forgot LOL and it didn't work.
I think the company may have fixed this oversight. Others have told me this didnt work. Maybe they saw this video 😊
Holy shit it works
LOL
Thanks boss!!
You bet!
Get him the master lock 643DASTWD or the 643DWD
These locks aren't meant to be extremely secure.... grow up and buy a secure lock if you don't want it picked!
😅
Dosent work I tried it a alot they probably fixed it
Maybe...if they did fix it, it's about time. Shouldn't have been a defect to begin with.
This is so pretentious. A person with a 9 inch screwdriver could break it in 5 seconds. He is as bad as the LPL.
This don't work on current locks. December 2021. Your video is now junk
I am ordering one today. I have heard other similar comments as yours. I will test the new one to see if the company fixed this. Thanks!
@@AlleyPicked have you found a way to do the new ones
