That's closer to the truth than you might think. At my brother's employer's, someone kept breaking or unlocking the padlocks on a tool store door, and stealing tools. So they secured it with a large nut and bolt, but with a left-hand thread. No tools were stolen for several years, until someone used Oxyacetylene to cut through it. Yet it only needed a socket of the right size, turned 'the wrong way' to open the door. The nut was often found really tightly fastened, as the result of people failing to figure out the thread direction.

Also it helps to cut the keys like 1.5mm further away from the head of the key than usual, so they automatically rebound. With the cut bump keys, take a flat edge of a file to scrap over the cuts afterwards to make the smoother, which increases the speed with which the bump key kicks down the pins.

A lot of jurisdictions that allow ownership of lockpicks by laymen state that they are considered illegal if present with "other burglary tools", this comes into play with bump keys because a lot of said jurisdictions classify bump keys as pure burglary tools and not simple lockpicking tools. Ownership, transport, or carrying of said tools by laymen is considered "intent to burglarize"under the law. You can get in a lot of hot water, so tread carefully!

Yeah, in my state bump keys are weirdly significantly more regulated than lockpicks. I gather this is the case for a lot of US states. I'd be interested to learn the general history of the legislature. Though I'm completely uninformed, to me, it smells like the term "bump key", or "bumping" somehow ended up being a buzz word in legal circles and eventually ended up getting more or less blindly baked into law, despite the myriad of other tools that one could use to the same effect. From there it's probably only a matter of time before it get's replicated community to community. I actually walked into my local courthouse with one of those cheap "credit card" lockpick sets in my wallet (forgetting it was there). Had to give it up to the guard at the metal detector/security checkpoint, but no fuss was made. But I wouldn't dare walk around anywhere with bumping tools. Don't even want to own any.

If you set the key in but leave the last 0 cut on the key out of the lock and give it a quick strike while turning the key a little, you're almost guaranteed to get the lock open on the 1st tap. You don't gotta beat the key repeatedly. Unless there's higher security measures put in place in the lock itself. Most household locks and deadbolts don't use those security measures unfortunately. And that's the story about how I used to get into abandoned and foreclosed houses without anyone knowing when I used to he homeless 10+ years ago. It is what it is.

To avoid bumping get a silicone oring. Of 2 or 3 inches with a cross section of 0.103" use a plug follower to remove the plug. Remove the last top pin and spring. Cut a section of the silicone oring to drop in the last top pin hole in the shell. Use your pin tweezers to attempt to load the top pin in the shell you will have to trim the oring section so it takes significant force to compress the top pin to get the plug follower in. This oring will require great force of the tip of the key to lift that last pin to the shear line. You may need to modify the end of the key slightly. No bump key and most picks will not be able to lift that top pin to the shear line. When trim the oring section I try several times loading the top pin holding the plug follower against the side of the pin while I get a second grip with my pin tweezers.

Before the burglary, I had found the outer back door unlocked. At the time, I thought it was just oversight on someone’s part. Now I think either somebody tested the lock or got scared away.

Something I have noticed; If you look at the timeline of any youtube video it shows you the most replayed bit of the video, and where people skip to in the video. If you look at LPL videos the line is almost always completely flat. That is a huge compliment to you LPL! Your videos are so engaging and well paced that most people don't feel the need to skip at any point. Keep up the great content! :D

@@endleontiozae7061 My building got the front door, boiler and utility/storage room re keyed at once. Must have a master key. I got a new front door key, but no access to the other rooms. I figured the keys were similar enough so I tried raking with my key. Turns out you just need to rotate the keyway and insert the key slightly not quite fully in and fiddle with it. Now I can open those doors with my "master" key just as easy as the proper key can.
@MikeKunkel2 жыл бұрын
You can reduce the damage to the bands by cutting a flat on the bow side of the last pin. The way your bump keys are cut, the band is stretching over an angled surface, which is making it easier to get cut. If you have it on a surface that is parallel to the bottom edge of the key, the band should not be stretched, and the surface that impacts the band should also be thicker.

A two sided Euro Cylinder Lock (at least that’s what they’re called here in the UK), has an interesting little feature, if you leave a key full in one side, you can’t fully insert a key on the other. Be interesting to see if a bump key would work in that case….

As the "consumable rubber rebound ring" is compressible, sliding an appropriate sized thin washer on the key before the rubber ring would provide more longevity to this part.

I thankfully had only a few cases where this would have helped, but I needed the bragging rights of doing this "low skill" attack. There's no question that I could do this now if need be!

This is one I’ve actually done myself. (On a lock I had the key to, of course) a coworker told me about it so he found a key that was close enough to this teeth shape, filed it down some, and we tried it on the locks at the dealership I worked at. Again, we had access to the real keys so it’s not like we were breaking in or anything, just seeing if it worked, and it did! Easily! And repeatedly!
