[78] TuBAR (Dual Sidebar) Lock Picked and Gutted Plus "How To" Demo

What an interesting lock! While it superficially looks like a variation on normal tubular locks, once we look inside, we see that it is completely different. What, from the outside, looks like 8 pin tumblers are actually sliders with 2-3 false gates and one true gate on each. These sliders are divided into banks of four, with each bank independently controlling a separate sidebar. Based on these components, this lock deserves its reputation as a difficult pick! That said, the teardown/analysis shown in this video reveals certain design features that pickers can leverage to reliably open these locks. I close the video with a pick/gut putting the lessons gleaned in our analysis to good use. Unfortunately, this is yet another example of a UL437 rated lock that does not live up to the 10 minute pick resistance standard... at least when approached intelligently.
