I had a hard choice on which lock to spend my lawnmowing on, a brinks shrouded, or the disk lock! How many security pins are in a brinks shrouded max security?

Also, (remembered) :o is the disk lock only max security b/c of the short shackle and the "armored" part? I noticed that it only had the M1 pin tumbler for the pins.

This is the longest effin post I've ever posted! :mrgreen: (LOL) :mrgreen:


If you are going to spend your hard-earned money, get the Brinks shielded. It has a shit load of serrated pins. I've had mine for ages and still can't pick it!

The disc is not that hard to pick - it has some spools but it's not that difficult. You can jiggle and rake it pretty easily.

depending on the bitting..(short keypins carry no serrations)
the brinks maxsec shrouded has 6 serrated drivers,(generally one regular,the first pin.)
and 6 serrated key pins.
and which disc were you asking about?
if the brinks, it has 4 spools,1 regular..(usually.)
here is how you attack the shroudeds =)

(in detail) and yes...by all means get the shrouded!
you will learn a lot more, AND get an incredible amount of satisfaction when you succeed in picking it.

Sorry, I overlooked this one! Yeah, that was the lock I was going to buy next, the wiz said it would help my picking along pretty good! Yeah, I raked the brinks disk today, which was two days after I bought it! That deserves a :) and a :(

*First are my Wafer/Pin Tumblers.

100_5690.JPG


Top - Bottom
Left - Right

Line 1(Top Right):
Display Case Wafer Lock, Misc Wafer Lock, Double Bitted Cam Lock, Master Combo (Drilled Back Panel)

Line 2:
Brinks Adjustable, Brinks Shrouded, Brinks 40MM, Brinks Mini Disc, Master something, Master 40, Master Rustolem or some crow, Master 77, Master TSA Combo, Warded Master x2.

Line 3:
Big Yale, Green Yale Junior, Misc Yale, Blue Yale Junior, Plain Yale Junior, Misc Yale x 2, Misc Eagle x 2, Chicago Something, some ILCO, and another ILCO.

Line 4(Messy): Old Hurd, Shackleless Reese, Misc Wafer Locks x3, Not sure/Can't Remember, Misc ILCO x 6, Wafer Lock Doorknob, KW1 Doorknob.


*Second are my keys.

100_5695.JPG


The top two lines are keys that stay in my lock drawer. These keys consist of Bump keys, usefull keys, and just keys in general that fit the locks. Though these ones aren't organized, they still have uses.

The bottom two lines are misc keys. I got most of these from my mother, who collected keys for most of her life. The keys on the chain are my misc KW1 keys. These keys have no real use other then to be in my collection, or to be used as bump keys later on if I feel like it.


*Now... The old locks.

100_5700.JPG


The first lock is a door mechanism that uses bit keys. The second lock is an old adjustable shackle bike lock. In the third spot, I have no clue. The piece of metal is a cover of sorts to keep the weather out.

The next in line is an unmarked lock that uses an interesting key. Thought he key doesn't match, it uses a like one from my key collection. Specifically it is the double sided key above the bit key in the key collection picture. After that we have an old Yale, followed by a classic Eagle. Then, last but not least, we have a miniature Master lock.


The lock in your old locks on the second line that you didn't know the brand looks exacitaly the same only larger than my baggage lock which I now found out is a western lock.

here's a pic
