cisa padlock

Postby Avenger » 29 May 2007 7:41

okay, so, i got myself a cisa brass padlock, version 210/40, and also it says "logo" on it....dont know what that really means. from key observing, i see that its a 5 pin lock.
since i dont have a camera i cant take a picture of it, and the closest to padlock picture that i found on the internet was this
http://www.cisa.com/flex/files/D.351a21a28ee81eb9840a/Catalogo_LucchettiGB.pdf
(second page, brass padlock left)

does Shackle double-locking system or CISA patented anti-tampering protection device have anything to do with my inabillity to pick it. i dont know what am i doing wrong, i tried little torque pressure, more torque pressure, picking from behind, picking from first pin...im lost. it sure works because key fits perfectly and it opens perfectly as well.

is this bugger pickable? :evil:

Totally pickable. The double locking mechanism refers to the locking dog that holds the shackle shut, nothing to do with the cylinder itself.

You'll crack it. Got a picture of the key for us?

that would look to be your broblem then ;) That 3th keypin looks like a doozy, especially as you've got to catch that short 4th behind it. You know?

Looks like a pretty secure bitting. You're going to have to SPP that bastage and pay a lot of attention. You should feel good once you pop it. :)

deep pin

Postby raimundo » 29 May 2007 8:34

make a pick that will work under that deep middle pin, on type would work under that and also work the shallow end of the keyway with a second pick tip along the shaft. I make one called sabana for this, there may be photos someone has posted around here somewhere. our you can concieve your own variation, its always interesting to see what others think up.

... thats some nasty high-low combo....
You're gonna need a hook shallow enough to reach under the big pin so you may get the pins at the back without over setting the problematic pin

is it possible to make torque so light so that 4th pin blocks at shear line (you know...as it should be with key), but the third (because of light torque) cant be overset?

btw, what is the good material for making picks, and where can you find them "in nature". i read that metal from car wipers is good for that
