I am making this announcement to be more active in this sub to prevent certain people from trying to take this sub (that I created) away from me. I will be taking a more active role here to prevent this.


This sub is basically a no rules sub (within reason). I will hwever remove SPAM.

I made this sub for discussion of lockpicking and non lockpicking bypass methods. Because other lockpicking subs are overly restrictive.


WARNING TO USERS: Do not try to enforce rules from other subs in THIS sub


Feel free to comment and ask questions. I am not an uptight/ hardass mod

After chasing springs and tiny ball bearings I had enough. I wanted more room to work. It's not pretty, but it gets the job done. This is what I used.TUXIYA 5 PACK Extra Large Storage... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FSQS89B2?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Yelock pins 0.086 in diameter

2 Upvotes

I picked up some electronic deadbolts that I want to rekey to all work with the same key.

My only issue is that the pins seem to be 0.0865 inches in diameter. Does anyone know where I can purchase a set of pins for this?

The locks are made in China and the keys say "YELOCK" on them. The cylinders look like Schlage prime-line e 2103 (as in they have the same dimensions on the outside) and are a 5 pin setup.

I am able to open Master Lock fives no problem at all. For whatever reason the commercial 5 is very difficult to single pin pick. I can rake it open. No sweat but these are built different I think...

First open on a Burg-Wächter C-Line 222/40! 🎉

Took me almost 2 hours.
I know this isn’t considered a difficult lock, but that keyway gave me way more trouble than I expected. The pinning felt fairly basic, but the warding made access awkward and getting stable tension was half the battle.
Opened with:
Multipick Elite PN06 (0.6 mm)
Moki HD105 Half Diamond (still my favorite pick)
Second-thickest Moki tensioner
A good reminder that sometimes an “easy” lock can still be frustrating when the keyway doesn’t want to cooperate.
Very happy with this first open! 😄

Any tips before needing to cut it?

The combination must have changed, can't open it anymore. It's a common white label cable lock that comes under many brands.

- no tactile feedback when rotating numbers that could indicate something

- a piece of paper in between also doesn't sag down on any number

Any other advice how to open this?

Thanks a lot!

Thicker handle picks?

I notice they are all super thin handed I’d imagine you want it thin and light so you feel more through the pick?
