You can't pick this padlock.
September 10, 2015 Post a Comment UPDATE: I talked about this lock a couple of months ago, but now I can actually demostrate it as you'll see in the video below. First, a recap of the lock:
And why can’t a thief pick a Quicklock padlock? Because this new high-tech lock has no keyhole. And it has no combination dials. It just has a single button on the front. You use that button to open the Quicklock a lot of other ways. Push the button once and then you can open it with your smart phone via Bluetooth, or an NFC (Near Field Communication) tag, a NFC card, even an NFC wireless ring. Yeah, I know, you don’t own a NFC wireless ring. That’s okay, Quicklock has them as an option. There are several Bluetooth locks in the marketplace but Quicklock says their’s is the only NFC + Bluetooth padlock on the market. I like the idea of having multiple ways to open a lock. I asked how you charge the lock and how often you have to do it. The company spokesperson said it charges via USB, but the internal battery only has to be charged as little as once every two years! This lock is also good for folks who have limited vision and find it difficult to use the dials on a regular combination lock. The price? It seems to be increased to $59.95 ($10 higher than last time I reported on it. ) That price includes the lock and two NFC cards. You can see the other options available to open your Quicklock at their website. Of course you can also open it with your Bluetooth enabled phone - iOS or Android. The fastest way to open the lock is something the company calls "Auto unlock". Auto unlock lets shackle release as soon as the lock and your smartphone are linked. You don't have to even press the button on the front of the lock. There's also a new Quicklock door lock, which operates in a similar manner. It's $79.95. Check out the company video and website.
