How to Pick a Lock With Hairpins

Lock picking is as old as locks themselves, and is enjoyed as a hobby and practical skill worldwide. While it has been tainted in many people's minds as something only done by criminals, it is in fact a skill that could very well save your life if kidnapped, as well as saving hundreds of dollars in locksmithing costs to open things for which the key has been lost. Criminals and thieves are far more likely to break a window and in other ways use force to open things rather than trouble with the delicate, and many times lengthy method of picking.
Practice locks can be purchased here (this is an affiliate link): ebay.to/1KVqCuU
Practice locks such as the one used in this video can be found for sale online with little searching, but all that is really necessary to practice is a simple padlock. Practicing lock picking should only be done on a lock that is not essential to some purpose, as it is possible to damage a lock if done incorrectly. It of course should also not be done on a lock that does not belong to you, as doing so is likely illegal.

[@AmandaBrownCPSReform]

NightHawkInLight question: will this damage the lock? I want to try it on my own door, but I don't wanna damage it!

[@Nighthawkinlight]

Be gentle and do not break a hairpin off in the lock and it will not damage anything. It takes only light pressure to do this.

[@AmandaBrownCPSReform]

I used to work at a bank. When my boss was first showing me around he pointed out some filing cabinets and I almost told him how easy it is to pick the locks on those things. Fortunately, I realized soon enough that you probably don't want to tell your new boss about some of the skills you've picked up 😉

[@cymond]

I worked at an accounting firm. While moving things around, the keys to one of the filing cabinets went missing. I looked at the mechanism in one of the unlocked cabinets, and realized I could just lift the locking bar with a ruler. My boss was not happy. He actually believed they were secure storage containers, despite the thin sheet metal and cheap locks.

[@blindleader42]

Richard Feynman famously (within a certain sub culture) was deemed a security risk at Los Alamos during the Manhattan Project, when he demonstrated the same skill on filing cabinets containing classified documents. Of course he was already cleared to view said documents, but just taught himself lock picking to ease the boredom of living isolated from civilization in the middle of the desert. He was the most interesting scientist of the 20th century.

[@DSNugent91]

Been watching lpl / bb for a nice while and have started to discover more channels like yourself recently. I ordered a pick set and practice locks but got fed up waiting so today I taught I'd try your bobby pin pick set up. I managed to get it done after a hour or so of trying and filing down the pick. It's only a 3 pin lock but either way I'm still chuffed with myself, I now know the binding order of said lock and can now pick it in a few mins. Thank you so much for videos and clear explanation.

Thx so much, I honestly didn't think it would work! Last time I called the fire dept. It worked great even with the weather proofing around my door!! Much appreciated!!

[@JamaicaDancehallTV]

thats the sound of your home being broke into

[@BloodAndGutsTV]

I doubt anyone would hear that.

[@BigNCountry]

Just tried this on my apartment door, Broke three lever pins so far. Gave up. My lock has a feature for the key that makes it impossible to get the pick to go in a certain way because the width of the pick is just a little to wide to put it in normally so i had to try it with the pick turned diagonally and sideways. Impossible to a beginner and only attemptable by a novice with a professional lock pick set

[@rfound2567]

[@stoppeppapigaddict]

When I got home this evening, my youngest daughter had locked the door to her room and then closed it. So nobody was in the room but the door was locked. I tried several things for a while. I was also contemplating buying a lock picking kit on Amazon. Then I came to think of KZbin and the first video I watched was this one. I made the tools and after five minutes I was able to open the lock! What a hack! I'm really proud of myself. The lock I had was like yours but upside down. Thanks a million for making this video!

Cait is sexually turned on by that :P

[@SenorMits]

Just wondering, who's Cait? Is she essential to the story, because I haven't really got that far in(I'm at the point where the super mutant scientist guy is going to beam you into the Institute), so if she's a story character that you meet along the way, then I'd like to be told she's in the story instead of who she is thanks.

[@AstrumSensei]

YoshiGamingVideos She's an optional companion, she's not important but she's the easiest to romance since she has a lockpicking fetish and she likes mean men (and I always pick the meanest dialogue options) if you use google you'll find her.

[@ChrisMorray]

As someone with a regular fear of forgetting my keys or grabbing the wrong ones, knowing this makes me feel a lot better. I've seen videos of it yet never got how the pins would stay up. Now with the context of the tension applied to it and the seized pin being the only one you should move I feel like I get the theory. Thank you for the clarity.

[@cymond]

It would be wise to practice the skill before you need it, though. It's a lot more difficult when you can't see what you're doing, even if you understand the theory.

Of all the how-to videos I have ever seen, this is the most professional, most succinct, least self aggrandizingj, best use of my time ever. No half-hour meaningless face time; no stupid camera work; no rambling. I HATE having to suffer through someone's childish attempts to be noticed. Why would someone produce something like this for free? I understood how and WHY in no time. I respect the producer.
