I agree it should use a better core for that price, but the chances a burglar is going to rake your lock open instead of kicking in the door is pretty low.
Even in physical pentesting, lock picking is rarely used. There are usually much quicker and easier ways that exploit the various ways that doors and hardware can be installed incorrectly. A simple travelers hook is a much more useful tool than a lock pick set.
- tyingq 4y agoThe unusual choice of Level to make the bolt hollow so they can put a battery in it probably makes kicking it in easier.
- aardvarkr 4y agoLPL also points out in the video that the hollow core design used in the dead bolt likely makes the deadbolt far more vulnerable to kicking it in. Not to mention that this is a dead bolt lock and completely impervious to a travelers hook…
- HWR_14 4y agoAccording to the very statistics cited by the lock company in their own defense, the odds are better than 1 in 8 (I only saw min/max) that they will rake your lock instead of kick it in. So that's 12.5%+ of the time it will get raked open instead of your door being smashed in. > Even in physical pentesting, lock picking is rarely used. As I recall, that's because it's known that locks can be picked. Unless the client thinks they have uber locks or thinks their guards should catch it, it's not the vulnerability they are looking for.
