Abloy :roll:



You are quite correct.....I meant out of that group.

And...Bilock is the only pin tumbler system in that group that is bump proof.

Quite true... but he specifically included a picture of a Master #3-series padlock in the blog. I'm unaware of any commercially-available #3 that comes with a Medeco core?

With the Master Pro Series, some of the line allows you to put in any type of key in knob cylinder. You can install primus, medeco, bilock, abloy, etc. They are very nice locks and are the only style/brand of padlock that I stock.
For the best book out there on high security locks and their operation, take a look at amazon.com for High-Security Mechanical Locks An Encyclopedic Reference. Written by our very own site member Greyman! A true 5 Star read!!

I would say most sidebar locks are bump proof (unless you know the sidebar code). What about EVVA 3KS or any other Bell type lock.

Okay....more clarification required for this thread...obviously :oops:

Bilock is the only commercially available 100% guaranteed bump proof pin tumbler lock manufactured in the USA for the USA market.

Bilock are not able to be bumped even if you know the sidebar code...if you did...you would have the key. :wink:

any pin tumbler lock that has top pins and bottom pins...is possible to be bumped....some are more difficult than others.
