Union 5 Lever BS
Red case with matte finish.
5G curtain wheel.
There is a gap in the hard-plate at the bottom of the key way.
Use a 5 Gauge tension tool (such as the A’ Jam quick pick) with a standard 11.8mm pick).
– Using small lifts, go through the lever pack and look for any lever that is giving resistance then lift.
– When a lever is in the anti-pick position there will be little to no movement.
– When a lever is in the picked position there will be definitive movement in the lever and you may hear a ‘ticking’ sound as you move it up and down.
– When a lever is in the picked position it will still ‘tick’ up and down no matter how much tension you are using.
– Closed gate lever pack (the bolt resides within the levers at all times).
– Square notched bolt stump with ‘V’ notched anti-picks in the levers.
– Each lever has one anti-pick and it could be either at the top or the bottom.
– A/B/A pattern picking (3rd and 5th lever are the same or the 1st and 3rd lever are the same depending on which side of the lock you are on.
Use a 5 Gauge tension tool (such as the A’ Jam quick pick) with a standard 11.8mm pick).
You could use a Union decoder if you aren’t confident at picking.
Drill to pick:
Measure 20mm up from the top of the key way then 9mm towards bolt. Use a 6mm hard-plate drill bit followed by a flat ended drill bit to completely open up the hole without damaging the levers.
Drill for the stump (the last resort):
Measure 20mm up from the top of the key way then 12mm towards bolt. Consecutive holes may need to be drilled to remove the stump. Use a 6mm hard-plate drill bit.
