    In this video we take a look at Jason Hilliers brand new Ingersoll Pick!
    What a lovely tool this is and I’m so glad to have this in my tool bag.
    If you want to buy yours, you can purchase one from Mark Grainger of ALS Locksmiths here 👇🏼
    I believe Mark is the only retailer of this pick
    alslocktools.co.uk/product/ja...
    I have also been asked a lot lately about how I became a locksmith, so I briefly share my story.
    There are only a couple of live jobs in this video, but I hope you enjoy anyway.
    Thanks as always for watching. Please give the video a like, and please subscribe to the channel if you dont already do so 🙏🏼
    Thank you.

    It's a shame we don't have locks like this in Brazil, it would be fantastic to use a tool as fantastic as this to decode such an interesting lock, excellent video 🤩🤩

    Thanks again Andy for another interesting video, nice to see you trying out a new tool. I have only started my wannabe locksmith journey recently and got a small variety of tools including some genuine Lishi and Lyshi style tools, been practicing on some car locks ive bought and some barrel locks. but Ive been watching your very interesting videos for some time, and Yes subscribed some time ago :-). shame about the courses but i do understand your decision, the shadowing 3 and 5 days sounds very interesting to see on the job. will be getting in touch about that mate, keep the vids coming, really enjoy them mate 👍

    • @brighton_locksmith

    A good hint for old wooden doors thar stick. It's most of the time the hinges are worn. If you look at the knuckles of the hinges you may notice they are staggered by only 1/2mm which is enough to cause the door to stick.

    It was great to hear your story mate it gives me hope for the future as I'm a carpenter too with a passion for locksmithing lucky for me the current job I'm at gives me around 50% locksmith work so am gradually building up knowledge and skills,
    I have recently got my ingersoll pick and wondered why I wasn't getting anywhere with it then saw gavs video and realised I had a Chinese version 😂 so will keep an eye out for a real one on ebay 👍

    • @brighton_locksmith
      @brighton_locksmith  5 місяців тому +1

      Ah mate! I got to a point that I wasn’t enjoying the carpentry anymore so it was perfect timing for me to give up. That’s good that you get locksmith work too though 👌🏼
      Yes, those Chinese Ingersoll locks are horrible. You’ll find picking a genuine Ingersoll a breeze 😊

    Great stuff Andy. Shame about not doing 5 days course. But understand tho. In a couple of months time I'll be looking to do some courses. If you don't mind, could I give you a call on some advice on what tools to get.and shadow course. Managed to watch all your videos now. Great stuff. Have a great week..

    I think lockdown changed many people's lives for the better surprisingly. For me it was working from home when the company always denied it before. Good you can chop and change like stopping your beginners course as not suited to you. Shadowing course sounds great and something I would have signed up for but decided to retire early and renovate a house. Nice to see your ugly mug (you said that not me) on a weekly basis. You are excellent at your job and can't believe 51% can't be bothered to subscribe. It doesn't cost anything.

    @conradsmith7752 5 місяців тому +1

    I'm a bit confused, you strongly advised against picking clockwise then proceeded to pick clockwise or did the camera reverse it?

    • @brighton_locksmith
      @brighton_locksmith  5 місяців тому +1

      Hi Conrad.
      I don’t strongly advise against picking clockwise! I say that it’s easier to pick it in the clockwise direction but that would be the wrong direction to open the lock, so you would pick the lock in the clockwise direction then plug spin the cylinder in the anti clockwise direction to open the lock.

    Ingersoll stopped putting their name on their locks over 10 years ago!
    not sure how you can tell if ones a genuine Ingersoll or a copy!

    • @brighton_locksmith
      @brighton_locksmith  5 місяців тому +1

      I’m hoping that the ones that feel horrible and graunchy are the copies! But I guess at a door we may not know until we try and pick it!
