More toys from Portugal

[GWiens2001]

These arrived today. Filipe says that two are typical Portugese locks, the other is a VITO, and he is not sure if it is Portugese or not.



On the left is a Teicocil 4 pin lock. Both sides seem to flinch and open the moment I put one of Rai's Bogotas into it. Literally 2-3 seconds per side max. At first, I thought it was an accident. Not much longer SPP. Bit it is fun, and is the first euro-profile my son has succeeded in picking. The middle lock is a 5 pin Vito. I would equate this to a typical Kwikset here in the United States. (Not SmartKey). The last one is a 5 pin AGC. The key on one side says AGC, on the other Rio Meão. It does have a couple spools and as you can see, it has a deep cut for the first pin. It was the most fun of the locks to pick.

Thanks, Filipe!

Believe it or not, there are people who actually lock their homes with these!
The Teicocil and AGC brands are 100% Portuguese, but the locks are fabricated in China

I love it when my friends ask me to pop a lock and hand me something like this
