  • This is the lock picking lawyer, and I just got back from a trip to Home Depot.

  • I'll admit I wasn't expecting much.

  • When I drop this century safe into my cart, I figured I could probably pick it open, but I was not expecting there to be a hole in the door through which I could literally stick a wire and unlock it.

  • There's actually three holes where these three little lights come through.

  • The lights are attached to a circuit board on the inside of the safe, and that circuit board is held in place with a sponge so we can just push these lights out of the way and make room for this little bit of coat hanger that I'll use to unlock the safe.

  • Let me show you how that's done.

  • Going to push this little green led through, but I'm going to position this wire so I can reach the solenoid.

  • Okay, you can see it's currently locked, going to turn this wire and it is unlocked.

  • Okay, let's turn this around and I'll show you exactly what's going on inside the safe.

  • We have three screws to take the back of this door off Okay, here we have our high security sponge.

  • See that green led that.

  • I pushed out of the way and all I did was reach through this hole and pushed down on this.

  • Still annoyed, which allows the bolts to retract.

  • Okay, there's more than a few problems here.

  • The most obvious ones are You shouldn't have easily accessible holes in the door.

  • And securing critical components with a sponge is a problem as well.

  • But what should also be obvious is that this safe is a product to avoid.

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