[109] Lock Picking Rapid Entry Techniques (Standard Pins)

[@timmarrier]

Dude, this is an incredibly helpful video, especially the spool pins guide. Many people are like me, "stuck" on a lock that they _see_ bypassed with proficiency that's practically foreign to them. What makes this so helpful for me is how methodological you are _in practice._ Especially with the American lock, never backing up, no I would say the way you overcame the security pins is always an expected step (lateral progress anyway). I've been stuck on that lock since dropping the practice several months ago, but damn, tonight I picked my American lock *first try* after watching this. It's your approach, your confidence that did it! I had just assumed until I learned to never pick a false set I wasn't going to bypass that kind of lock security other than blind luck. So thanks, good sir knight!

[@HelpfulLockPicker]

Thank you for the kind words, I am happy the video helped! I try my best to make the videos easy to follow along. For me, open is open, and I like to follow this approach in the real world setting.

[@user-Rockstar1]

I know the feeling. I'm stuck on every lock I have. About 10 noob locks. It's embarrassing even though I only know..I figure I'll practice for a few more hrs, then take a break and quit. Haha.☹🤦‍♂️ I'm very efficient at most anything I try. But lock picking is completely foreign to me and I think I'm getting worse. . I've watched 100s of videos.

[@DougFirch]

Thank you for your channel! I have been trying off and on for about two years with not the greatest results . I do appreciate how you describe everything from technique to the feel of the pins . I am having a much greater success rate picking locks since finding this channel. Now I just need to dig out my padlock collection again. My wife is going to love that. Anyways I plan to join your channel and better my picking skills. Thank you

[@edwardce8341]

[@watevr4evr]

Generally you can tell which direction to turn a locked lock by feeling which direction has the most "mush" or furthest turning angle when u apply pressure, i use this technique and it hasn't failed me yet! (Like idk 5 or 6 basic locks)

[@shadowshadow2485]

Bronx-LockPicker60 being left-handed the struggle, LOL. No one understands how hard it is to tension a lock with top of the keyway counterclockwise in hand until they've done it left handed

I found one of those American locks on the ground while I was riding around on my bike and it actually had the keys still in it and looked brand new. Didn't know about the security features until now, though. Bonus!

[@aleluyaaleluya8823]

Master: thank you for your terrific teaching. I am a begginner and I am still to study carefully all the videos, but I am impatient to solve something because I am practicing with a "real" lock in an abandoned house and is exciting, dont worry no crime involved. Pardon me everyone because probably is the dumb question of the month. I succeded in turning the cylinder by single pin picking, but when I went half turn, i.e. when the key hole got upside down as it were, it blocks in there, and I am stuck, dont know what to do, the door is not yet open, you know is normal you have to go a couple of turns before the bolt clears. How to understand this and overcome it? Thank you man you're awesome.

[@HelpfulLockPicker]

Its the tailpiece has broken off and the lock is now seized up.

[@cancelhandles]

There's a small exception to the direction in which you should turn a deadbolt - Kwikset 816 Series Tenant/Landlord locks have two cores, one on top and one on bottom. The landlord core needs to be turned toward the frame to unlock it because it's on the opposite side of the bolt.

They key bitting has not made a huge difference for me but when you make your bump key all the cuts need to be at the maximal depth going across. Key bitting in theory can make it harder but I have not ran into that too much,

Hi, dear friend, can you tell me how to professionally call the tool for re-folding the insert which is under the handle in the mortise lock? I have a few tucked up inserts and I do not advise you with tweezers, I know that tweezers with tweezers are inserted using only tweezers with springs - one from the side of the carrier, one is inserted in metal for blocking each bottom pin, then put in the drum and attach it with omega or o-ring (forgive my very bad english)

My mouth felt open too see that you crack them so easily. Well here we have mostly German / Swedish or UK lockwork. I myself work in the construction and I wanna secure my tools and goods and I was wondering witch kind of lock would do the job. But when I saw you picking them I thought to myself " I hope them thieves are dumb and don't know this knowledge " but I consider that naive... what about these: www.veiligheids-sloten.nl/M-C_Color_pro_4x?gclid=CjwKCAiAj53SBRBcEiwAT-3A2BVY7vBcyg2yG7NeQd9Epy84aXPN4idzDl-aiXNnMZWjtA_9fPzBsRoCIxUQAvD_BwE they consider these as top notch stuff. And I acutely think that even you can't crack them ;)

[@HelpfulLockPicker]

14TK Longshot I can't read it but are those just dimple locks? They shouldn't be too hard. You always want physical resistance more than pick resistance. Picking a lock in the field is much harder than at a desk. Also, most criminals do destructive entry because it is fast and takes no skill. You should be good with most locks. Adding security pins help prevent raking and bumping

I had to older quickset deadbolts. And I tried raking and single pin settings. And had absolutely no luck. I’m usually OK with locked knobs. But deadbolts always throw me. How much pressure should I be applying or holding on the turn. Please and thank you

[@HelpfulLockPicker]

you do not want to pick a lock in use or one that you do not own. However, the problem with deadbolts is it actually takes a good amount of force to throw or retract the bolt once the lock is picked. It can make tensioning them tricky. Another thing they make difficult is using a plug spinner. If you are single pin picking try more tension they likely have at most 2 spools. If you are raking try a little less tension. Another thing you can do is try to add some lubricant like lock Houdini on older locks that can go a long way. Link to Lock Houdini: amzn.to/2IaAjMk

[@christophersoberg2627]

[@robertperez802]

Rapid entry? Who would suggest or ask for any slower method? Is slow entry offered?

[@HelpfulLockPicker]

Rapid entry methods work when they work but when they don't work they don't work and you need to use the "slow method" such as single pin picking because you have more control
