Keyless Padlock

[Thrash Hammet]

I playing pool the other night and noticed a lock on one of the lockers that had no keyhole all it had was a groove on the left hand side as curious as i was i was lucky enough to see the owner go and unlock it with a magnetic strip, so when i got home i looked these up and wanted to ask if these really are as good as they say they are or is there a way around these locks too?

That's not keyless. Using a key other than pin-and-tumbler type doesn't make the lock keyless.

surely there is a way around bypassing that..

i want one now

That's right, and their site makes that pretty clear. It's not keyless, it's "keyless". See the difference?

I would really like to mess around with one of those locks. I still wouldn't really trust it on my front door...a lot of companies have messed around with magnetic concepts before and it always seems to have a flaw somewhere. A $10.99 version doesn't seem that it'd be much more secure, you know? Even though it says that a magnet won't get it open, I figure there'd be some way to exploit it with a magnet.
I think that if you're just trying to lock something simple up like a gym locker it wouldn't be bad though - It might have a fallibility to it, the novelty of it would likely be guard enough in that circumstance.
