- Brought to us by lock pick mall, this HUK tubular lock pick set gets two thumbs up from me. The link is below.
After testing it on several locks here in the lock shack I have concluded it works great each and every time.
I know it's not the best one on the market but I think the price is right.

Thanks for checking it out.
These (HUK) sets are well made. I have found that I do not have the luck you have with using them. I’ve used them on Master padlocks, Chicago and cabinet style cylinder locks with various success. I bought a second set thinking my first was defective but still had problems. I am sure it is a combination of technique, the lock and the rubber band tensioning. Practicing is the key and trail and error. Thanks for the video.👍🦊
Oh yes Jack, practice, practice and practice more. I am getting good now but I did NOT start here. You can do it too my friend
Jack, I had the same issue. After watching Albert's video I moved the pin slightly deeper into the picks body and just opened my first tubular lock with them. 😁
@@sotonlock7894 Thanks for the tip 👍🦊
@@sotonlock7894 I would recommend removing the pin instead so it can’t get stuck way down in there. A decent needle nose plier will grab it.
@@AlbertLebelI had to use pliers to get it out, I think it was to flush with the tip of the pick and not allowing it far enough into any of the locks I have.
OMG, I've had a simular set for ages and couldn't open a dam thing with them, thought I'd been conned. Just watched your video and saw how the pin can be removed (who knew, I didn't). Moved the pin slightly deeper into the pick and just opened my first lock with it. Thanks Albert your a god!
I am so happy it helped. Yes, the tools work great after a bit of practice. Also keep in mind if the pins are slipping past the pick "fingers" try using the next size up. I also found they dont work too good on those cheap acrylic practice because the pins flop around way too much.
Didn't know about the differences with these sets. I'm sure many are like me in not wanting to spend more than necessary as novices, but money on the other set would be wasted in comparison, so when I can afford a set you've just saved me and many others money- Thanks!
I appreciate this, as it's my intensions to help inform and possibly educate people so they can make a more informed decision BEFORE their next purchase
Awesome review!
Thanks LPG, They truly work great.
It is a great set. I picked the same locks with or without the locator pin in. It is just that....a guide.
Yes, you can totally do that but with the pin inserted you dont take risk of getting the pin stacks out of correct alignment. It does help
Nice review, thanks for sharing 👍 at some point I must grab one of these sets as well, could not justify it yet due to not enough tubular locks.
Thanks Fumbler, maybe if you got these now you will have a better excuse to get more tubular locks 😃
@@AlbertLebel Hehe true true, its often like that 🙃
Big al, is there a imp tool that works on an ace 2 tubular lock. Please any advice
I purchased the Southord one when I first got into lock picking, excellent quality but I couldn't pick certain types of locks because of that guide pin that was needed/not in them, so I purchased the HUK set and never looked back since. Plus they were a lot cheaper Lol..
They're an excellent set to add to any lock pickers kit ;-)
Yes I am pleasantly surprised with this set. They stay tight and right. Like I mentioned the other set is just cheap and the handles keep coming loose.
That was interesting, thanks So. I have a huk set I got from banggood and it doesn't have that slot for a p8n, or a pin and no spare bands either so Lord knows. Maybe I'll get another one with your code, which by the way awesome to last untill 2023. Take care as always mate😁👍
Ya I would not buy anything I plan to use much from Banggood 🙃. But yes, as I mentioned, I have tried these on several locks and they worked perfectly on all of them. I was pleasantly surprised
@@AlbertLebel I've come to realise the same from banggood now mate🤣😢 thanks for the reply. Hope you have a good day and rest of the week fella 😁👍
Great review Big Al! I have the Klom set, and while I do like them, I noticed the same "loosening" of the handles. They can still be effective, just require some tweaking every so often. Thanks for the video, take care buddy 👍 👍
Ya seeing how they looked damn near identical I figured they would be made the same. But this HUK set is better quality IMO
Lost the key to my small floor safe and bought this set. I cannot get it to work. I’ve watched all the videos and tried so many times. Ready to just destroy the safe at this point
Good review Al. I have the HUK set. Thanks for the coupon code. :)
Thanks Don, ya I truly like these better than my other set.
Great review!!
🐈⬛🐾🐈👍👍👍👍
Thanks Chris. I truly like this set
Which tubular lock pick tool do you recommend for me please.
Nice review. I got this set for Christmas but I haven’t used it yet, I think you just inspired me to go out and get some tubular locks and try it out
Yes, they work fine. Aside from what I shown here, I also picked three other locks I have and picked all quickly and easily
A nice overview of the picks and how to use them
Thanks Gantry, their actually pretty good
Is the pin supposed to stick out at the top?
Well shit ya got me sold! I will have a set by summers end! Thanks Al for doin a review on these!
My pleasure, be sure to use the coupon code albert at checkout for 6% off too. Any little bit helps
@@AlbertLebel I sure will, absolutely save every penny I can everywhere everytime 🤷🏼😂😜. Is much appreciated. Hoping they have the Huck pinning kit. I really want metal pinning shoes for making CL’s. I really like that they have started sending ya stuff to review. Helps a guy out to better make a purchase really. Cool cool. 😎
Excellent review Big Al. Take care my friend. Go U.S.
Right on DJ, thank you for checking it out
I had a set of these and never used them, I actually sent the. out as a LockSport donation. my best to you brother, definitely good information 🦾🦾
Thats very kind but now you dont have any 🥺. IMO you cant have too many lock picking tools. Even the weird stuff comes in handy sooner or later
Hey Al, great video and thanks for making it. Just a question though, on that first lock (the one without the notch in the middle), how is the tool applying tension? I’m familiar with your special tension tool for the Pengcheng locks which look similar to the first one in this video, in fact I ordered one from Sparrows last week. So I’m not sure, with no post in the middle of the tool because of no notch in the middle of the lock, how tension gets applied to that inner ring to get the open.
Excellent question, we simply count on the pins in the lock and the ones on the tool to stay in place due to the slight concave’s in the center pole on the lock where the pins are. Honestly it’s a bit more sketchy doing it that way but it works. Truth be told I have had one slip out of place on me but it doesn’t matter. You can simply rotate the tool to any position since there’s no notch. I hope this helps. BTW, these tools rely on a bit of luck. Play around with how many bands you use for different locks.
I've yet to find a tool that can open the Chateau 7 pin tubular lock! Even the couple of times I managed to think I picked it, the cylinder would spin but, it wouldn't open! I've tried some really good tubular picks with no results!
Where can I get one so I can try it myself ?
I've got the Huk set and feel better about that selection now. One problem I've had with it though, even with the grub screw completely backed off, I can't get the pin back out of one of them. 🤷♂️
Oh I had the same problem on one of them but I used a needle nose plier and pulled it.
I have the HUK set I found with a mod they open STD locks but not ones with variable spring tension which I come across regularly at work but all in all it’s a good set btw the mod is getting rid of those tiny bands and using a castration ring found that helps a lot
I can understand that as they rely on a balanced set of pin stacked to work good. For locks like you mentioned I would likely just SPP them
@@AlbertLebel that’s what I have to do 👍🏻
Does this cheap set work on say a ace 2 tubular lock? Because I know they are supposedly better made locks
@@user-vw9mb4tv9k I did pop an Ace tubular lock but not sure what version. If they fit they work. Just may take a bit longer. Play with tension. Don’t be afraid to remove or add a tension band.
@@AlbertLebelthanks for the info brother. I can't wait to get my product to try out!
Is it normal when i introduce the tool to get all the tension bars at the same level? I opend a lock so many times but in the end i can't get the combination anymore? What is the problem? Too much tension on the tension bars?
I don't understand what i'm doing wrong this time. After 3 hours, no results. But many times just in a few seconds i unlocked it. Everytime i use a different "method"
Don’t get frustrated. It’s not you. This type of tool works on luck. It’s not exacting. What I do is use a flat surface like a hard table to make all the fingers flush with end of tool tube. But since the tool uses those bands for tension, it’s very hard if not impossible to know when or if each single finger will work correctly each time. All you can do is set it, try it, reset it and try again. Trust me, it will not work perfectly every time. But it does work. Keep practicing.
@@AlbertLebel
So it wasn't my fault. 😮
Do you recomand me the advanced one? It is "better" than those like in this video?
They look more easy and accurate
@@sulitaandrei2261 Yes, these are ok but Southord is better. I featured one one video 491
They cost more but you will know quality when you try them. They still require luck due to the way these tools work but your chances should be higher.
Also remember there are different sizes. So either buy all or get the one size marked on the tool you been using. Hope this helps. But seriously, don’t get frustrated, it’s simply how these tools work. Keep practicing but reset it each time using a hard surface.
I already saw the video. It's like a piece of cake for you, but practice is the key.
I will buy one in the next days if is more comfortable to use and you can actually lock in like a key after you get the "code" for the lock.
Thank you so much for your time to answer my question ❤
I can’t get this damn thing to work!
Don’t get frustrated. Trust me. Been there done that. We tend to make it look super simple only because we been doing it for quite some time. Be patient. Play around with it. Try taking off one of the small bands or adding one. They provide tension to the fingers. Go back and forth with the handle as you push it in and soon as it’s in try turning it to rotate the core. If I can do it, you can too. I’m just a knucklehead with an addiction to locks. Just keep practicing. You will be stoked when you get it. Good luck. 🍀
Wow that was too easy. I don't think I'll ever be buying those kinds of locks
Yes, many of those more affordable tubular locks are simple but they do make better ones. Just like anything else you get what you pay for.
Very through
Thank you for checking it out
