Also I see the Tboy site just updated with noite on locks thus:
LOCKS
We used to source our locks from Nashville Tennessee but are now looking for a European supplier of high security radial locks. We have not yet fixed on a new supplier, we are still evaluating, pick resistance, quality, availability of replacement pins and springs, difficulty of dismantling the locks for repair / modification / re-pinning, and cost.
I have just found a European supplier of 10 pin radial locks with anti drill technology. I have written to them already for a quote on these locks and assuming they work as intended Tollyboy will move onto these higher security locks.
We do however have a Galaxy lock made by the Australian Lock Company. You can see one in this YouTube link. These appear to be the most evil, secure and pick proof of the radial lock design, their price at about $200 AU reflects this. We are looking at how to integrate this lock into a special high security belt. We have some ideas that we think are good but no working prototype at this time. Future announcements will be made if / when we get this design working to our satisfaction.
We have in the past hand built 15 pin dual row radial locks, these are very rare and currently out of production. When we are fully back and working full time these will return to production. Announcements will be made at that time.
We have also modified standard locks to use trap pins. These are designed to jam the lock permanently if the lock is picked. The only ways out if that happens are to come to my workshop and have the lock disassembled or to carefully drill out the core of the lock with a tubular drill. These will also be returning to production at some time in the future. Announcements will be made at that time.
