Basics of Lock Picking

Course Description

Lock picking is a useful skill that can be a lifesaver when keys are lost or you’re locked out. The most common kinds of locks, tumbler locks, can be picked with simple tools, patience, and a little knowledge. You’ll need to prep the lock for picking by gathering lock picking tools and lubricating the lock. Solve the lock and disengage it by setting the pins of the locking mechanism. Use the raking technique (sometimes called scrubbing) for quicker lock picking.
