this is the lock-picking lawyer and what
i have for you today is amazon's choice
when one searches for a safe and
unsurprisingly it just so happens that
the brand name is amazonbasics it lists
on Amazon for $57 though it's currently
on sale for forty two and just in case
you were wondering I declined when
Amazon offered me quote expert
installation which would have cost an
extra two hundred unfortunately this
product is among the worst of the worst
because it can be opened in just a few
moments using a tool which ironically
you can also buy on Amazon now there are
at least three major design flaws with
this product but today we're going to
focus on one the mechanical backup
cylinder which is right behind this
panel so let's pry that off it's very
easy to take off and there is a tubular
core let me show you how it works
we turn the key to the right that allows
this knob to turn and then the safe will
open or locked up again unfortunately
this tubular core has a design flaw
that's been known to security
professionals for decades the lock has
equal length driver pins and equal
strength springs that means it can be
impressioned very quickly using a tool
like this and while this may look like
something that's unusual or rare it's
readily available on Amazon just 18
dollars for a set of three so let's see
just how easy it is to use just that
fast we got this open so as you can see
this is not a product that anyone should
consider secure it does however have one
excellent use it would make a great
decoy safe what I mean by that is you
should leave it in the corner of your
room filled with a stack of old
newspapers and maybe a small bag of
rusty nails that may just keep a thief
occupied such that your true valuables
go unnoticed in any case that's all I
have for you today if you do have any
