I have a 5-pin Medeco Biaxial that I can't pick so yesterday I got a 4-pin Medeco payphone lock that I bought on EBAY. I picked it over 10 times in one day. The first time took about 20 minutes. Now I'm under a minute most of the time. I don't get how this lock opens so easily??
for fuck's sake, please people. do any of you actually know how a medeco lock works? i know jkthecjer lives and breathes medeco (the guy made his own freaking decoder), so you would be a fool to challenge his knowledge on these locks. it's completely believable that he picked it with a standard hook and tension wrench. most people think they can only be picked with a monkey diamond (bent tip), but with the right skill any standard hook will open these locks.
metalace21: Just to clarify, this is not my video, but thanks for the kind words. Also I did not know that the bent half-diamond was called a "monkey diamond"; neat!

He clearly took the tumblers out, and is only picking at a single tumbler. No insult intended, you have to be smart to orchestrate that, but as for being a 'lockpick', this guy's a hack.
Who cares? These types of locks are placed in very tight positions and very close to the phone booth. You can't stick your head in to see what you're doing and have no room to operate.
Wrong. This is a lock manufactured by Medeco. Did you mean that this cylinder does not employ the rotating pin+sidebar design? Wrong again.These are 4 pin and the pins must rotate and lift.Mine is not biaxial, but I've heard later models are.BTW:Biaxial does not mean lift+rotate.
The lock did its job. This is at home and it took a little over 1 minute. Now in the public to steal some money most people with this skill set are not going to spend 1 or more minutes picking this lock. And there are not many people with that skill set walking the streets looking for phones to grab 50 bucks in coins.

Can this lockass assin guy pick a lock with all the parts in it. Clearly there are pieces missing out of the lock like a sidebar or pins. I want to see him pick a factory sealed medeco out of the box. With the tools he had there is no way he could of picked it. He suuuuuuuccccckkkkkssss!!!!
Why do you say parts are missing? Are you just guessing for the hell of it? When someone does something slightly impressive, do you always call them a faker without even a shred of evidence to support your claim. I have picked this lock and the 6-pin biaxial with normal picks a good number of times, so yes it is possible.
Hmmm ... I know these locks well. I just wish people who put such vids up would photo well enough you can see the face. There is a trademark symbol for Biaxial which is on the face of EVERY real Medeco I have ever seen and it is not there. What exactly is written on the face I can not tell.
Not on all of these. I'd bank on that being biaxial, not that it being biaxial would really impact his ability to pick the lock. Here's a good breakdown of the lock in question: lockpicking101 dot com /viewtopic.php?t=19523&start=33 (it won't let me post a coherent link...)
You'll notice that the biaxial mark "(|/)" is stamped on the key, rather than on the face of the lock.
dam dude, ur pretty good. ive never tryed to pick a medeco, but there supposed to be up there. r u interested in maybe tradin off one of ur medeco biaxels for sometin?
Them are junk. I have one that I can rake open in under a minute. I don't even have to fiddle with trying to rotate the pins.
These are 4-pin Medecos.

This isn't a standard Medeco lock; it is a special order and it's factory restricted.

Can you not just use a bump key?
caine7sfg 3 years ago
bump keys dont have hack worth, its like hacking you want a challenge, anyone with a bump key can open a lock, lockpicking is more of a challenge.
WmashdaProductions 3 years ago
Unless you have a bump key that is cut to the correct code to set the sidebar you can't bump this lock.

Put the sidebar pins back in and try to pick it Tom.
