Squire has some amazing padlocks but they are not available in Canada. I once tried to order them from the UK. The price is very reasonable given the quality but shipping was impossibly high and I gave up the idea. I wish they'd start distributing in other countries.
I like that he usually has something good to say about the company, even though a certain product line falls short. And through these videos, we learn why. That's all I have for you today.
LPL made a mistake guessing the second number, the lock detected that at 2:12 and automatically opened as no one knows what happens when LPL fails his first attempt to open a lock.
I spotted that, but I think it was just a matter of that one wheel being stopped just ever so slightly before the open position; had he been way off, that one wheel does not cooperate as readily.
Having just purchased the Covert Companion, I really appreciate seeing you use it in your videos. Very educational. Thanks for the great tools & content!
Same with British payphones. The cash boxes on the 1930's version (the Buttons A and B type) were just about impregnable - made of heavy steel with a 6 lever barrel key lock (like Bell, each cash box key was different). Then they developed a newer type in the 1960's and as forced entry had never been a significant issue the cash boxes were of weaker construction and there was a spate of break-in's and thefts. They quickly had to beef up the strength of the cash boxes.
@@netking66 Gosh...I haven't seen a pay phone in years. I guess they're still around in some places--maybe gas stations? (but not at the gas stations we fill up at).
Thanks a lot for all the videos I've seen, and those to come! Just saw the ice cream stuff... Congratulations to Ms Pickinglawyer, she's definitly best picker than we beleived. From France, Merci
I followed this guide but using a cheaper un-notched decoder. It did not work. However, I suspected that the notch is supposed to lift the bar up. So, I tried subtracting 1 off each digit. No luck. Then another 1, and hey presto! It opened. Thanks for the guidance - it got me there.
My local social housing association are still fitting these! I had one put on my house by them about a month or two back. I alerted their maintenance department to this video yesterday (Wednesday May 31st 2023) showing how easy they are to pick, and the lack of security these keysafes provide, and they're passing my comments onto their trade supervisor. Hopefully they'll choose something more secure to install!
This is going to sound really random but thank you for taking a deep breath in at the start of every video. I jus came from a Zoom uni class where the prof's mic was really quiet, and I forgot I had my sound turned up to 50%. That deep breath being so loud gave me a split second to lower my volume so I didn't go deaf. Just to emphasize the difference, lowering my volume to 2% is loud enough to hear you clearly.
I love the way that LPL pronounces Norwich, "Nōr" "Witch" it's pronounced, 2 syllables "NORR" + "itch" and the "NORR" is best said in a pirates voice! 👍🇬🇧😂🤣😂
In all of the US versions of those towns, it is pronounced nor-witch. Like in Massachusetts and Connecticut. But small hills may be easier to defend than big ones...
I like how the lock set itself to the right combination at the end (it was off by 1 at first). It alreay knew it had no chance against LPL so why even bother...
He has just "Diss"ed a lock sent from Norwich in March. (East Anglia location name joke..was trying to see if I could get any others into that but struggled..feels like InGatestone would work in some relevant sentence but I couldn't crowbar that one in.)
The point is he identifies the picks as being available in his store then get on with the rest of the video. The promotion isn't obnoxious and doesn't drag on until you are biting your fingernails in frustration.
one of his more recent videos he's responded to a comment saying that it hasn't arrived yet, I'm assuming the guy making the lock is working on it to make it better before sending it to lpl
Even easier way we had some turd break into ours. Smacked the top with a hammer pry or screwdriver in the gap around the door. Springs that hold the latch are not strong enough to hold latch in place! Lesson learned the hard way!
LPL you should consider testing the Litelok Core motorcycle lock! As I understand, it is a brand new motorcycle lock from the company and is being heavily promoted through sites all over the world. That certainly takes investigation!
You may notice that sometimes he picks a lock without even removing it from the original packaging. This almost always allows him to return the lock for a full refund should he wish to do so. Many locks can be returned even after being opened by telling the seller the lock was unsatisfactory, although after a few repeated returns, the seller may just refuse to sell locks to LPL.
I opened it by just putting it up to my ear and listening for clicks and feel as well, they tend to be a little lose when it hits the right number as well
Its absurd how many businesses are willing to sell out their reputations. I've seen it in almost every industry I can think of. A well earnt reputation decades to centuries in the making destroyed by selling the rights to their name on total trash. Often there is a temporary bump in share price before it collapses, and often this ties in with a group of key execs retiring and selling their interest in the company. Of course regularly this is not the case, and for whatever reason a good company with a future decides to suicide its reputation with seemingly little logic behind it. If Squire intends to keep their reputation, they would do well to sell such trash under a different brand name (or preferably not sell it at all).
Fun fact: If you order anything from Covert Instruments, you'll find that the return address for the package you receive will have a return address for a PO box in Spotsylvania, Virginia, USA. This is because LPL lives in a courthouse; in fact, it's the same courthouse where he was born.
Its funny as my Reliant Robin has car door locks made by Squire and surprisingly my ones are difficult to pick but comparable era Squires could be opened with a spam key or broken off bit of windscreen wiper. I had the local lock chappy overhaul the locks (J Reynolds of Gillingham did a smashing job) and even done me a set of new not worn keys, sadly the boot is a Rover Metro key and the ignition the easily broken off Lucas ignition set but at least I know spam key or wiper bit toting ne'er do wells won't be making off with me Reliant :D In the eighties, it was common for people having missed the last train would find an old Mini or Ford Escort, nip off the windscreen wiper for the necessary bit and jiggle their way to a free ride home leaving the ahem "joyridden" vehicle in an easy to find place once wiping off any fingerprints.
Maybe it is time to up the ante! Can LPL also decode this if it is facing away from him. At least the videos will probably be a bit longer than the blink of an eye..

We appreciate the comments made by LPL and always take them on board, we will investigate them thoroughly.
Hey it's the official reply here! LPL should give this a heart
Here before LPL gives this one a heart
Nice to see a lock company actually react to these videos
Dont win the race to the bottom!
Well how about that. Good on ya.
I hope you do. You guys have made a lot of good locks, don't ruin that reputation for a quick buck. We don't need more Masterlocks
He picks these kind of locks faster than I can enter the combination...
That's practice for you. I imagine he's done this hundreds of times... if not thousands.
Yeah he seems to have been doing this for more than 5 years now
He picks them faster than I can remember the combination.
“Than” my friend, “than” not “then”
Than
I like the not so subtle “hey, stop making garbage yah nib nobs!”
But quite diplomatic.
its EXACTLY the same as one I bought off of taobao. SAD!
Squire just got the most polite but potent threat in the world
Hear, Hear!
And from an American too! hehehee
It's not a threat, it's a warning
Sad now everyone is gonna steal the tic-tacs I keep in this
*Cri*
Tic-tacs?! I'm going to buy one of those covert tools right now! XD
The tic tacs are never safe!
Can I have some green ones they're be favorite
Squire has some amazing padlocks but they are not available in Canada. I once tried to order them from the UK. The price is very reasonable given the quality but shipping was impossibly high and I gave up the idea. I wish they'd start distributing in other countries.
A squire is a knight's small companion, so it only makes sense that a lock bearing its name should be opened by a small covert companion.
Yes, indeed.
That's... really clever! :-D
I love how he's always quick and to the point. No long drawn out explanations.
He's concise and unambiguous. Seems almost lawyer-like or something.
I like that he usually has something good to say about the company, even though a certain product line falls short. And through these videos, we learn why. That's all I have for you today.
When the pick is so quick you get here and people have already seen the video and given their opinion before you can watch it all
How many hours of life have I spent watching LPL scrambling the combination? 😂
More than you've spent watching him decode them, as one data point.
Probably around 2 minutes because he doesn't take that much
Usually takes longer scrambling the combination than watching him decode it takes. That's pretty bad.
@@iamsirpablo 2 minutes x 100 videos like this one would be 200 minutes/over 3 hours.
Many times you can just pull the open switch and feel the combo as you turn the wheels.
LPL made a mistake guessing the second number, the lock detected that at 2:12 and automatically opened as no one knows what happens when LPL fails his first attempt to open a lock.
I spotted that too lol
I spotted that, but I think it was just a matter of that one wheel being stopped just ever so slightly before the open position; had he been way off, that one wheel does not cooperate as readily.
When even the lock is scared of LPL!
It's simple: A guru meditation, followed by a restart.
It's pronounced "Norr-itch“ short O sound and silent W :)
(Norwich)
The LockPickingLorrer
No
died a bit inside when it was pronounced nor-witch
It's not our fault that english town names are literally unreadable.
@@Livestreamlurker They're perfectly readable if you have a vague semblance of etymology.
Hey LPL, have you ever thought about making your own lock company? Your UA-cam channel is the best marketing anyone could ask for.
It's easier to break things than to make things.
@@suimeingwong2043 But its smarter to make things than to break things.
"sterling reputation"
yeah, we caught that
Having just purchased the Covert Companion, I really appreciate seeing you use it in your videos. Very educational. Thanks for the great tools & content!
I used to open bike locks at school back in the 80's like that just without the tool. Unbelievable they still haven't really made them any different.
Omg when you said 80's I was confused for a minute cuz I thought you meant 1800
@@daveshusband2606 what if he did
Please open a museum and for each lock include a qr code for the video and how long LPL took to pick, along with all the other info and history!
I'd visit this museum
I'd replace all the qr codes with rickrolls 😂
@@chickenspaceprogram That’s evil. Luv it. 👍
Awesome video, I love the speech at the end!😸
Damn, not only opened but also decoded
I’m shopping for a key safe today. You just prevented me from making a mistake, LPL. Thank you!
Would be awesome to see you enter the Guinness book of records with most picked unique locks within a certain time-length:)
WOW! 2:58 a very long video! I absolutely love these informative no bs videos and as always have a nice day.
Waiting for this year's April fool's video. Bar's pretty high

Excellent video, thank you very much.
A very kind way to deliver harsh criticism. I bet it'll make someone at Squire sit up and take notice.
Nice touch that LPL referred to Squier's 'Sterling' reputation ... very apt !
this guy is so consistent
I'm subscribed with the notification Bell on and I love your awesome channel lock picking lawyer keep up the great work 👍
Thank you so much for your videos it has made my job so much easier. Now it takes less than 1 minute to get in and empty people's houses
UA-cam notified me of this two days after its posted
Thanks LPL

This guys mission is to pick every lock that has been invinted
I am still waiting for my Gerda G-1000 video
yessss the gooood scramble
The day when LPL only gives the wheels a regular scramble instead of a good scramble is the day I unsubscribe.
Today was not that day
That was pretty damn good, thanks for the education
April fools day is coming up, show us how to pick the ignition of a HMMWV 🤣
11 days to a april's fools day
Its going to be a back door entry...
I love the way that LPL pronounces Norwich, "Nōr" "Witch" it's pronounced, 2 syllables "NORR" + "itch" and the "NORR" is best said in a pirates voice! 👍🇬🇧😂🤣😂
I think in a Vikings voice will sound much better
Unless you’re from there, in which case it’s pronounced “Narch”.
In all of the US versions of those towns, it is pronounced nor-witch. Like in Massachusetts and Connecticut.
But small hills may be easier to defend than big ones...
I like that you use your own tools/picks that you sell. So of the other locksporters use other made tools other than their own.
This guy keeps breaking into my house
It's pretty remarkable that I can now see the design of a lock and predict which attack LPL is going to use against it.
Basicly: "hey squire, stop making garbge or i will stop using prober tools and you get the paper clip treatment..."
Lock picking lawyer! You are my hero😍😍😍
nice pick
Bless the way you say Norwich
LPL can record 2 hours of videos, set a timer to upload 1 each day and all he has to do is kick back and collect yt dollars for 2 months.
Just in time for lunch!
I like how the lock set itself to the right combination at the end (it was off by 1 at first). It alreay knew it had no chance against LPL so why even bother...

the only channel where if they plug their stuff i wont get mad and might actually buy it even tho i havent ever tried to pick a lock in my life
The point is he identifies the picks as being available in his store then get on with the rest of the video. The promotion isn't obnoxious and doesn't drag on until you are biting your fingernails in frustration.
When are you going to pick the unpickable lock?
I know right
I hope it's soon.
one of his more recent videos he's responded to a comment saying that it hasn't arrived yet, I'm assuming the guy making the lock is working on it to make it better before sending it to lpl
There's a lab somewhere in a secret location working on the unpickable lock for the LPL.
Even easier way we had some turd break into ours. Smacked the top with a hammer pry or screwdriver in the gap around the door.
Springs that hold the latch are not strong enough to hold latch in place! Lesson learned the hard way!
Since the 1700's ... now that puts a new meaning to a lock review. I would also hope that Squires heeds this warning.
You just HAVE to show off that covert companion, huh! FINE I'll buy one JEEZ
first time here at 1 min posted ! lets goo!!
Amazing how he remembers the video numbers
I've seen so many LPL videos that I knew how he was going to open the lock just by looking at it
holly crap 20 seconds to open. Mommy I'm scared now...it wil take me longer to open up a bag of chips.
Nice!!
"A reputation can be very fragile, as I have just demonstrated"

Squire, fetcheth me most secure lock
Funny how the lock sets the right combination itself at 2:12.
yup it is hilarious. LPL did a mistake that lock fixed itself.
Think it was between gates
"I know where this is going."
* clicks into place *
Another WIN for LPL 💥
Hey, question. What do you do with all the locks you review? Do you keep a huge collection somewhere?
keeps them locked

Welp, Squire's sweating bullets methinks.
20 seconds just to open this. 5 seconds longer then I expected for LPL.
