Lock Picking Lawyer (on youtube) destroys these locks "security" features and picks them usually in under 3 minutes. Secure locks generally do not exist.

There are locks he can't pick. https://twitter.com/LockPickingLwyr/status/1070118901097381889 https://twitter.com/LockPickingLwyr/status/10701189010973818...

    Ever. LPL is wildly over rated by the laymen. Most of what he picks isn't even remotely high security. Been waiting for him to do a pick and gut of an assa twin he received years ago but it's never going to happen. If you want to see someone who is as good as the hype says they are, try artichoke2000

    The tweet is from 2018. If he can't do it in 3.5 years, it's reasonable to suppose he never will be able to.

      someone should ask him if he had success in the meantime

        If he succeeded he'd make a video. He hasn't.

        maybe, maybe not still better to ask him rather than assume

They do. There are locks that are over 100 years old in design that nobody has ever published a picking method or tool for publically (kromer protector comes to mind). Beyond that most locks that require specialized tooling to pick or are ranked above red belt on the lpu rating chart are more than secure enough for even commercial purposes. The chances of an intruder successfully picking say abloy protec 2, clavis f22, opnus mmxII, assa twin combi, etc are infinitesimally small compared to them trying to brute force entry through another opening like a window

Given enough time, any lock can be broken into, and no manufacturer will claim their lock is foolproof. Even safes are rated only for how long they will deter a determined thief, e.g., a TL-15 safe will resist break-in for 15 minutes.

You shouldn't get a wrong impression from LPL videos, he practices picks extensively and said he only starts recording when he's pretty sure he can pick the given lock consistently.
