On the surface, it looks like a reasonable product.

We have a steel lock body, a boron alloy shackle and a core that is filled with security pins.

Unfortunately, Brinks failed to shield the back of that core, allowing us to reach through it with a tool like this and bypass the mechanism.

Since that video, I've received a lot of enquiries by both comment and email as to whether this lock's 60 millimeter big brother was also vulnerable.

So earlier today I bought one of my local Home Depot, and I'm sorry to report that the answer is yes, folks, this is something that could be avoided easily by a competent lock designer, and I remain baffled how such a textbook design flaw remains on the shelves of a major retailer.

In any case, that's all I have for you today.

If you do have any questions or comments about this, please put them below you like this video and would like to see more like it.

And, as always, have a nice day.
