Text in the video: Hello! These are Yale, Apecs, Trion, Hardlock, Sherlock cylinders. This is China, just without a name, exactly the same profile. They all look the same. In the upper left corner you can see a snake. Sherlock, Hardlock, Trion, Apecs and Yale. The tool is the same for all. The tool is impressionistic. About Yale. Here is a regular profile, without any markings. Here, we take the Yale profile already with an asterisk. Exactly the same profile itself, but here an asterisk is drawn. The key has exactly the same profile, but it is longer and has more pins. Now a very similar profile, but here there are already three stars. And another guide has been added to the profile. The keys are also very similar. This is a very high protection class. The tool will not work here 100%. There is a chance of opening, but very small. We can say that it will practically not work either. Therefore, the tool only works with a simple Yale, which does not have all these stars and markings. The most common one is like this. And by the way, do not confuse with locks that have two rows of pins in parallel and a wave. This is a different profile. Here is exactly one row of pins. Because there are similar locks with the same wave, but which have two rows of pins that go in parallel. In general, these types of Yale, the tool will not take. I think this is clear. Foil 0.05, ordinary. The percentage of opening is difficult to say. Probably 70 percent. Those cylinders that cannot be opened simply by the impression method, for such there is an option - a power key (svertysh). It is sold separately. It has exactly the same operating principle. You put foil on it, insert it. It just withstands much more load than the impression. It is equipped with a regular handle. But when we work, you need to make sharp jerks to pass the wave. And so I again return to this handle, which is much more convenient for making these jerks. Well, to tear this wave from its place. WD-40 or something similar, something like that to lubricate the cylinder, this is a must. Without this, the opening percentage will be very low. We put the foil. We wrap the nose. And it is desirable to insert it very carefully so that the foil is not wrinkled or torn. This is already such a large backlash. Now all that remains is to tear it off. You do not need to press hard, like this. We do it, just shake it, swing it. Like this. It can crunch a little. Here you can fix it if it gets stuck. Exactly the same profile, without any name. This is just China. The tool can go in depending on how long the cylinder is. It can go in like this, or like this, or right to the end, to the very stop. WD-40 or something similar, this is a must. In general, such a handle will be very convenient, but the tool itself comes with a standard handle. You can also work with it, just press and make an effort. Not so convenient, because the load on the fingers is greater. The price of the tool will be on the website. The price of such a handle will also be on the website.
