Your high-security locks mean nothing.

Information about locks themselves. Questions, tips and lock diagram information should be posted here.

Your high-security locks mean nothing.

Nor do your steel doors or boron alloy shrouded shackles that carry them.

These guys could bust into Fort Knox with a 14 kg bag of tools. I want some.
:D

It's also effective if your little sister's doll's head gets stuck in the bars covering your windows.

Please see the humor people. I know we are all into nde. This is sick nevertheless.

Well, a handy guy could make the set easily at home, just buy those hydraulic automobile lifting things, they are easily available up to the 20 ton limit and then you need just the hoses and some different "heads" for tools :) For example, that hydraulic bolt cutter would be fun and easy to try and make :D

But this topic is bordering advanced material because of DE nature.

Everything was in ideal situation though.

Realistically, when you wedge that thing above your head, there's a good chance it'll slide out and whack you right on the head.

Also, when you're trying to pry something open and it won't fit right, it will cam out.

I think that saying is regarding the topic of fishing stories as told by Finnish fishermen, and the quality of ABLOY locks.


hehehe

Were they air powered pumps? That thing the guy kept hooking up looked like a "quick-connect" for pressurized air. If it was a hydraulic fitting, methinks it'd be a bit messier.

Then again, the website seems to imply that the pumps are either hydraulic or air-powered from a canister.

Wow.

I don't imagine even if you were able to afford them, they'd sell them to anyone. You'd have to be law enforcement in all probability.

But still, those are some nice tools. Nice tools I wouldn't mind having :P

This stuff allows such quick entry that I know after watching the video many people can only think of one thing:

Heist.

I would imagine the company that sells them is very discerning in who it sells it to, but in the wrong hands a well-coordinated group could end up very wealthy. In and out with minimal noise and suspicion.

14 kg (30 lb) of virtually unstoppable entry power. All in a handbag.

They are hydraulic which means they have to use pressurized fluid to move. The hydraulic quick connects are quite popular in a lot of industries and yes they can be messy if you don't remove all the pressure first but if you did you usually will only lose a drop, if even that. I use them all the time for 25 ton hydraulic pumps used to straighten car frames.

Yep. Hydraulics sure are amazing. Just for fun, I might mention that they were invented by Joseph Bramah, they man who invented the Bramah lock. Late 1700s I think.
