Hotel door hacking and how to protect against it ...

[husayn1972]

Making security guards lives an absolute hell. Its whats for dinner!

[CutiePie4325]

That doesn't look in the least bit suspicious...

[youstontx]

The new locks designed do not have the curve in the end where this mechanism got stuck to pull it down. This will not work in new hotels.. Now they are pushing the door frame to release the safety latch. Always stay in a hotel with automatic deadbolt latch which gives additional half inch security.

Hmmm... guess I have to use that rod to move the towel out of the way so I can get into the room..

[Runks88]

as long as you lock the swing over thing your good.

[stfuih8ulol]

isnt there an alarm that goes off, if someone does this without the key/card, or if the hotel is still vacant?

[sigg3net]

nice

[TheMatCav]

@Eyes5150  It's you the towel !

[brashmadcap]

raep tiem

[bangmeister]

it will still get through, it just will take longer maybe 2 minutes more

[CovingtonVinyards]

Where can I buy that Keedex K-22 Lever Opening Tool??

[StealthGhost]

How about just locking the deadbolt?

[JeromeDemers]

@StealthGhost Do you see a deadbolt at 1:04?

[robjufer]

@StealthGhost

the deadbolt is over-ridden if you open the door from the inside.

[dissy614]

@StealthGhost

If you lock the deadbolt, you won't be able to open the door to get out.

If you are already out of the room, you can't lock the deadbolt from the outside.

The keycard triggers a motor to let the handle turn.

Deadbolts are for inside only, unless you commonly leave through the window or something :P

[adamthewebman]

@dissy614

If you leave through the window from any floor above the second you better be able to fly! ( unless there are balconies to jump to!

[robcasey20]

@dissy614 Dummy, stealthghost is absolutely right. The deadbolt is part of the handle locking system, when you turn the latch from inside the deadbolt automatically unlocks. The only thing the deadbolt does is prevent anyone with a key from opening the door from the outside. This tool is undeterred by the deadbolt. The only way to deter this tool is if you are in the room and use the latch above the handle locking system. If you are not in you room and somebody wants your stuff, YOU SIR ARE SOL

and that's why Towelie says: "Don't forget to bring a towel!"

[eduhast]

Suponiendo que en el hotel sean tan canelos como para que las puertas tengan un asa bién grande, en lugar de un pomo, como es lo habitual. Menuda chorrada.

[djkaribu]

Hitchikers Memories!!!

[Xiskate]

well... nice to know, but where the fuck can you get it ? i never make a trip with those tools, well actually is not necesary if u lose your key you can ask always at the desk in reception... don't waste your time!

[warmwollenmittens]

Love the hitchhiker reference!

[97warlock]

haha coool

[gingerb56]

Wow, where did my old world go?

[drunkenspree]

That way of opening the ADA inside door handles has been around since they came out with the electronic card key system. Most hotel and resort security men have a thick piece of rigid electrical cable that they use to open the doors in the very same fashion. It also defeats the reading featrure on the door lock.

Best defense is a high powered gun.

[fausti1981]

Gran aporte para chorizos, en el siguiente capitulo aprende a robar Bares con un coche usado.

[Babymatic2009]

Someone has stole money from me before in my hotel room( stupid of me) but they were even dumber because the $40.00 they took was tucked into a brand new pair of $350.00 true religion jeans on top of my suit case full of clothes I had just bought for a total of over $6000.00 lol

[Babymatic2009]

I'm sure they will find a way to pull that towel down too!

[sirdir2]

Maybe, but more probably they just wander off to the next door that is 'untoweled'

[volunteersimplicity]

Thanks for your job, these kind of videos are necessary to have a better approach to problems.

[odewepe]

great

[Crosttaman]

hahah!

[Zebrei]

Stupid,

there is no such space beetwen the floor and the door for electronics locks, very often the handle is rounded. For other kinds, you lock the door when leaving.

Really a stupid video.

[jarfil]

Towel, indeed. LOL!

[ohxietviet]

@downtownlife Bro.. if theres no one left in the hotel room how are you gonna lock the top lock..

[Christianvg]

there is no such thing as "trusty" hotel safes!

there are always technical staff that known the safe service combination.

And as in every company something like that makes its round... ;)

[unsupported]

That's a reminder to use your hotel safe. even if you are just stepping out for a second.

[masterbettysama]

that is one frood who knows where his towel is

[chubbynaga]

i knew it! this must be what has happend to me.

all my money disappear in my hotel room one time in Glory Beach Resort Malaysia. they were using the same locks. and there were no record of break in or illegal key card swipe.

hotel were so proud of these locks. i need to show this to the insurance and hotel... !!!

[Bandrik]

Indeed, always remember your towel. :D

[flunkycarter]
