How to make a Door Latch with locking system

"This is the Lockpicking Lawyer, and today we have here an old school lock"

I love these. While it’s redundant and useless for security overall, it’s the back to basics that inspires me. Living in a world where everything is so complicated, things like this remind us of how technology was. And for people to explore and put to test their own skills and theories for solving problems, gives us all more exposure to the algorithm in each of our respective brains. The more we absorb, the bigger the archive of knowledge we have to pull functional and usable techniques from simple things like this. Ignore the haters, appreciate the jokes and recognize that you just added more tool skills to your talent. No matter how small or outdated the project is, time is being well spent. I now have an even more simple explanation for how locks tend work, this would be great as a introduction to locking mechanisms in a late elementary school physics lesson that also introduces the world of metal working, welding, and engineering.

Simplesmente um projeto muito legal. Obra de arte. Parabéns 👏👏

Imagine how exited this guy is going to be when he learns you can buy something just like that for about 8 dollars

Que show! Ótimo trabalho!

Somewhere the “Lockpicking Lawyer” is laughing….”am I a joke to you”?

The person breaking in, "Huh, this lock is a minor inconvenience", smashes the whole thing off.

The day I see one of these with actual welding I’ll be impressed

Yes an extremely old style lock made with relatively new tools. Sooo impressive.

I think you just have to keep some pressure while you spin the first nut until you feel the spot, and then continue through the others. But not everyone know that so it could help. Its still a great clip.

"This is the LockPicking Lawyer, and what I have for you today is NUTS!"

So here's how to do a latch 1. Ignore the one that's on the stores 2. Be prepared with a bunch of Hardware tools you probably don't have 3. Work for a few hours and have your eyes burnt by the wielding machine 4. Congrats on having your new 3 pin latch

I love these highly complicated, need years of experience "how to videos "

When I was a kid, me and my dad made a cryptex out of wood and the process was kind of similar. I still have it, and yes the password is apple.

Not sure if you ever heard of a lathe or a milling machine but they’re great 😂

Bravo ta tout fait à la main c'est magnifique 👏👏👏

Tack/spot welding king of KZitem! Every video, i would just love to see him run a bead for once.

Everyone talking about the lock.. i'm amazed at how well he cut the key way in that shaft with an angle grinder

Problem is that you can push it to open just by spinning each one until the rod moves. You don't need to know the combo.

as I understand it, in order to change the code, you need to re-do the design or redo it?

This is pretty cool. Wish I could weld.

What’s the specific name for this welding tool?

Someone get this guy a lathe so he can expand his ideas, this was cool 😎

Nice build. Just look for the weld spots to crack the code.

What a great idea!! Until you realize that all that work can be defeated by a three year old simply turning the nuts until they all line up.

Confirme essa trava pra portão, armário de ferro né 👍🏽

Alguém sabe dizer o nome dessa máquina de solda???

we all *think* we know the combination, but after the video was made, he put the whole assembly in a lathe. cut the nut off the end, took out all the tumblers, drilled out the pins, welded the holes shut, drilled new pin holes, welded new pins, ground the surfaces flat, re-stamped the numbers, re-stacked the tumblers into the slot, welded the assembly back to the base... and now no one will ever know the new combination! 🔒

That was actually cool. I’ve sat through these type of videos with cutting, grinding, welding and intricate machining and the end result is a spatula holder.

"this is the lock picking lawyer, and I'd like to remind everyone today that an important thing to keep in mind when judging a lock is it's intended purpose. That's why I don't want you to judge today's lock for how easy it is to bypass, when its real purpose is a display of handicraft." He says, white decoding the luck with a cover over it. "One more time, to show you this wasn't a fluke..."

O miserável é um gênio!!! 😎👏👏👏👏👏👏

I like how he put it on his plywood box

I can bypass this lock in a few seconds Its a good basic representation of a combination lock but has no anti picking features

Holy shit you’re kidding me. Even the wet bandits can get through this

Son: Can we get a combination lock? Mom: No, we have a perfectly good combination lock at home Combination lock at home:

I am no professional but I think you can do these in order from right to left so instead of trying 999 times you just figure out each individual bolt and you can see if it's working by sliding the lock.

This precise cuts with an angle grinder blew my mind

The soldering touch ups part is so satisfying that it fits with the background music

Stellar craftsmanship. Keep CRUSHING it!

On a conceptual level this is dope as hell. The rest of the comments speak for the practicality.

3 hex nuts with 6 sides per nut meaning 216 possible configurations. Cool idea but really easy to crack without any tools or experience.

Где-то заплакали токарь с фрезеровщиком...

Definitely more of a “look what i can do” and not a “heres a neat way to make something good”

Nevermind the lock picking lawyer, the safe is made of wood 😂

This is nuts!!! I would buy something secure 🤧

Easy to open with 🩺🪛🔥🔨🔧🪚💉🔍🧂🧭🏗️🎈🍴🧵💳🔦🌡️🐘🧷🥎🪓🧲📎📍💣🔫🛼💻🪠🔑 And a ☕🍪, if you need a break

Damn you his was so helpful idk why all the other videos showed how to make a door latch without a locking system

Pretty cool, although should probably make the handle so it doesn't just stick out like that. Other than that, I liked this

Man that's genius takes a lot of work to make that though

I'm never doing this but it still looks cool

Замок хоть и прочный, но вот коробка оставляет желать лучшего

So, I broke in. You'll never believe the lock they had! I got the combo first try!

Правильно тут написали - открывается секунд за 5, если не торопиться. Поворачиваешь первую гайку до сдвига, потом вторую, потом третью. Чистая декорация ))) но прикольно

What is the name of the tool u use to melt the metal together?

"While your building that thing, I'm just gonna run up to the hardware store and grab a lockable slide bolt and a combo lock. I'll be back about the time you find your grinder..."

Now that the best and handiest DYI I've seen in the shorts!!

Pretty sure you'll be able to see where it was welded. Even if you can't, I'm sure there's enough slop in it that you could figure out the combination in seconds.

Alt title: So I bought all these tools and I've run out of things to do with them

Man.. this WoOdEn box is perfectly secure with that metal lock.... no way you're breaking into that sucker..... lol

I'm blown away. I'ma welder. This is now happening lol. Thankyou

"There is no such thing as a locked door"

Anywhere a lock pops up, the LPL also pops up 😉

You know what would be cooler? Using something like that for a D&D Dice roller.

Я тоже сделал себе такую очень помогло

Esta genial aunque muy fácil de resolver

I promise you I would have that open in under 30 sec. Those are the easiest locks

"This is the Lockpicking Lawyer, and today what we have for you here is ...a joke...that took a lot of time and materials to make"

Wow, Superb 😳👍🏻

Really appreciate your work

Excelente 👏👏👏👍👍👊🏼👊🏼

Me laughing with a 3 inch deckmate and an impact in my hand. “But I have a dead bolt right here”

Just hold the lock to the opening direction, move the first number and it ll move a bit, do the same with the rest, and you are done

Incredible work

I dont care what others wanna say.. GREAT JOB DUDE!!! 👍

Could be useful for a shed you don’t want being left open or something, useful against children I’d say.

Write the password on a paper and lock it inside. It’s for emergency in case u forget the number

Mom can we have a lock? No son,we can make it Edit: pls don't do 666 likes

Bro. What's stopping someone from simply taking off the lock from the door?

Норм, подобрать код можно по люфту, зная механику, да и заедать со временем может, но идея хорошая.

After watching this multiple times, I still fail to see how this locking mechanism works.
