Hello my friends, I have new idea how to in certain cases lift this already perfect solutions level up in term of security. I have question to you more experienced lock experts, what if…..
What if we will made small mod to this Polish Combination Lock based on build in small traditional lock (tubular, pintumbler or any other). Can you imagine for a moment that we will treat Open Close knob as plug and the masking part as a case of this lock?
The masking part will have such a shape that it will not rotate at all. It will be fixed in the body of this padlock. There will be key hole in front of the open close knob and lets say 5 pins lock any type is proper here.
In order to rotate the Open Close you will need to insert the key and then after setting proper code just rotate and open. This additional lock could be very simple lock , chepest and simplest on the planet.
The beautiful part is that the attacker will need to pick this lock any time before checking the one code. In our case almost 10 000 000 Times picking :). This solution will protect this mechanism even more than now it is protected already with all features.
Of course this key lock will be additional option we will not replace any features like magnetic joint etc. All the previous features remain as on this video.
So the mod needs 1. Changing the masking internal shape, not full rounded but mounted in the body. 2. Adding some kind of small lock using OpenClose knob as Plug and the masking as the case of this lock.
This solution will rise this mechanism to TOP NOTCH and so secure that all attackers will not start even the picking. If you will know that each time you like to probe the code you need first to pick this small lock then you will not try it I think.
I need your help here to understand which type of lock should be mounted there as an ultimate security option. Thanks again for your feedbacks, Zbigniew
PS. This mod is just in the future locks maybe in doors and safes. Additional benefit of such a mod is more secure integration of the OpenClose with the rest of the lock.
I am very glad that the lock has been shipped so quickly. Now Swynndla has 7 days for playing with the lock and try to decode it using all methods he wants including cardboard and laser beam method.
I am pretty sure he will have fun and will check carefully if this time the upgraded mechanism is really decoding proof. In this case with 10 000 000 unique combinations really doesn’t matter if this is 7 days or more. Here is important that Swynndla can check new design and “make certification” of the security level of this lock.
As he mentioned in this video the lock is very scalable and it can have 7 or less wheels but in real world the attacker will rather try to open using brute force and destruction instead of decoding.
This is exactly my goal to design the lock that can be open only by destruction. That is pick and decode proof.
This is important as if this will be true we will have one of the most secure solution available on the market soon.
I wish Swynndla good luck as he has most experience in decoding my design. I am waiting for final review and judgment.
Hello today I am going to show you the new design of PCL. This time you can play with 25 letters placed on 5 knobs. It gives you the opportunity to create even 9 765 625 unique codes.
This padlock has 12 mm closed shackle and 5 wheels plus some extra security features builded in.
This time it has double sided locking mechanism so the 12 mm shackle is even more secure.
There is all security features builded in this model. You will be supprise how good it is.
Now you can memorize 5 words sentence and set up the code very quickly.
Example: Buying Cars Is Quite Difficult. Your code is BCIOD
Hello, as you know 10 000 000 combinations padlock is now on the way to New Zealand to Swynndla. He will make nice review soon.
Meantime I have designed new layout of PCL. It has 4 combination wheels with 15 Letters on each wheel. Now you can play with sentences you like and set up the code.
Example: Nice Little Orange Octopus = NLOO in the code :).
We can change knobs from letters to numbers.
In the future we may have both sides knobs. Letters on one side and numbers on the other.
This padlock has all security features the same as 10 000 000 one.
Here you can watch my new video showing 10 000 000 combinations padlock.
This prototype is ready for next decoding challenge. I claim that this padlock cannot be decoded even with laser not mention standard free hand methods.
I would like to announce next round of worldwide decoding challenge. The rules are the same as before. I count on Swynndla to take the challenge (he has priority) as he was the winner of first edition.
Please let me know Swynndla and I will send you this padlock for your attempt and review. You will have full 7 days to open this 10 000 000 combinations padlock :).
