Whether it’s jewelry, important documents, or priceless pictures and mementos, if you have something of value that you wish to keep safe and protected, you keep it under lock and key. That means having to invest in a sturdy lock that you can trust and depend on.
Many people end up turning to Master Lock for their basic home security needs. The name brand is among the top-selling commercial lock manufacturers in the world. If you take a trip to practically any hardware store in the country, you’re basically guaranteed to find the company’s traditional and combination padlocks being sold. If fact, there’s a high probability that you’re using one right now somewhere around the house. After all, they come in handy for many different types of things, from keeping drawers and shed doors secured to bicycles safe.
However, if you are using a traditional Master Lock padlock, you may want to start looking at other options. As it turns out, the very popular and basic Master Lock model is surprisingly easy to breach and can be broken into in a matter of seconds. If you’re wondering just how little effort and time it takes to crack one open, then watch this quick demonstration from YouTuber Bosnianbill. He shows exactly how to pop the lock and virtually anyone can do this. You don’t have to be an expert or criminal mastermind to pull it off, you don’t even need to have any special tools or skills!
All that someone has to do is grab a hammer, or anything else they can bash and strike with, and pull on the lock. Start by applying tension to the shackle, which is the curved u-shaped top part, by steadily pulling on it with one hand. Take a hammer in your other hand and use it to firmly hit the side of the upper part of the lock body. It doesn’t take much, a couple of good blows will do the trick and overcome the locking mechanism so that the shackle pops out from the body. At that point the lock can be removed and tossed aside. Bosnianbill was able to easily open the padlock in about 10 seconds using only a hammer, which shows how worthless these types of locks are.
Finally, while this video was originally intended to serve as a warning for consumers, it can also be used for other less honorable intentions. However, in the interest of balance and fairness, it could also help someone open a lock that they lost or misplaced the key to. Either way, it’s good to know about and be aware of so keep this information in mind because it may just come in handy down the line.
