A visual demo to help people understand the internal workings of a lock and how lockpicking works. It's just a clear acrylic lock housing, picked it up online for I think fifteen or twenty bucks a while back.

  • Where can i get the clear lock housing??

  • @staples2196 I bought mine from Southern Ordinance, but plenty of places carry them. Search for "Acrylic lock housing" and you'll find plenty.

  • What chance is there of security pins an does a pick gun bypass them

  • @scouser96100

    Pretty much all but the cheapest of locks have security pins now. Pick guns can bypass them, but so can a regular pick. Personally, a regular pick is much easier to use.

  • how do u know ur at the right pins?

    

  • @selena4535

    You don't, really. You work on whichever pin sticks--usually, front to back or back to front will get you the best results, if the lock is machined sloppily. Generally speaking though, the pin with the greatest resistance to movement is the binding pin, which you should work on first. Each lock is different, so this may not always help.

  • HD my ass

  • @sparky9278 No problem man. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

  • @NoNeedForAKey Nah, I just wanted to no before I tried it, thanks for the help.

  • @sparky9278 No the pins falling back down would not break the lock. If you are having a problem with a lock just send me a private message and I will see if I can help you out with whatever is wrong with it.

  • When the pins fall without the support of the key, does this break the lock? And if not how do I fix it.

  • lockpicking has increased to 49

  • nice video mate

  • Lockpicking increased from 47 to 48!

  • @DooomSurf that's what the tension wrench is for. The torque you apply hold the top part of the pin in place.

  • Stop! You violated the law. Pay the court a fine or serve your sentence. Your stolen goods are now forfeit.
