I take another break from the usual outdoor activities to revisit locksport! This time I'm checking out my (former) front door lock. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it wasn't exactly a bastion of home security...
I hope people will find this video interesting and might use it as a start to making more informed choices about their own lock security level. Kwikset-type locks like the one I show here are still very common, at least in the US. It used to be that few people had access to the knowledge and tools necessary to pick this type of lock and that offered a sort of protection. These days, however, both knowledge and tools are readily available, so I think it's worth considering the level of resistance a home (or any other) lock can provide.
If you decide to take up lock picking, enjoy the challenge, and please make a commitment to abide by TOOOL's rules of ethics (see their website for details):
1. Never pick or manipulate any lock that does not belong to you, unless you have been granted explicit permission by the lock's rightful owner.
2. Never disseminate knowledge or tools of lock picking to individuals whom you know or have reason to suspect would seek to employ such skills or equipment in a criminal manner.
3. Be mindful of the relevant laws concerning lock picks and related equipment in any country, state, or municipality where you seek to engage in hobbyist lock picking or recreational locksporting.
