LOCK PICKING by: Black Cobra
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
So you want to be a criminal. Well, if you are wanting to be like james bond
|
|||
|
and open a lock in fifteen seconds, go to hollywood because that's the only
|
|||
|
place your gonna do it. Even experienced locksmiths can spend 5 to 10 minutes
|
|||
|
on a lock if they're unlucky. If you are looking for extremely quick access,
|
|||
|
look elsewhere.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The following instructions will pertain mostly to the "lock-in-knob" type
|
|||
|
lock, since it is the easiest to pick. If there is sufficient demand, I will
|
|||
|
later write a file discussing the other forms of entrance, including dead-bolt
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
first of all, you need a pick set. If you know a locksmith, get him to make
|
|||
|
you
|
|||
|
a set. This will be the best possible set for you to use. If you find a
|
|||
|
locksmith willing to supply a set, don't give up hope. It is possible to make
|
|||
|
your own, if you have access to a grinder (you can use a file, but it takes
|
|||
|
forever.)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The thing you need is an allen wrench set (very small). These should be small
|
|||
|
enough to fit into the keyhole slot. Now, bend the long end of the allen
|
|||
|
wrench at a slight angle..(Not 90 deg.) It should look something like this:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
#1
|
|||
|
\\
|
|||
|
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ (this is the handle
|
|||
|
\\\ that was already
|
|||
|
\\\ (here.)
|
|||
|
\\\
|
|||
|
\\\
|
|||
|
\\\
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
now, take your pick to a grinder or a file and smooth the end (#1) until it's
|
|||
|
rounded so it won't hang inside the lock. Test your tool out on doorknobs at
|
|||
|
your house to see if it will slide in and out smoothly.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Now, this is where the screwdriver comes in. Is it small enough for it and
|
|||
|
your pick to be used in the same lock at the same time, one above the other ?
|
|||
|
Lets hope so, because that's the only way your gonna open it.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In the coming instructions, please refer to this chart of the interior of a
|
|||
|
lock:

#= upper tumler pin
|
|||
|
*= lower tumler pin
|
|||
|
x= cylinder wall
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
(this is a greatly simplified drawing)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
the object is to press the pin up so that the space between the upper pin and
|
|||
|
the lower pin is level with the cylinder wall. Now, if you push a pin up, its
|
|||
|
tendancy is to fall back down, right ? That is where the screwdriver comes in.
|
|||
|
Insert the screwdriver into the slot and turn. This tension will keep the
|
|||
|
"solved" pins from falling back down. Now, work from the back of the lock to
|
|||
|
the front, and when you're through.....
|
|||
|
There will be a click, the screwdriver will turn freely, and the door will
|
|||
|
open. Don't get discourage on your first try! It will probably take you about
|
|||
|
20-30 minutes your first time. After that you will quickly improve with
|
|||
|
practice.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This is by no means the most efficient way of entering a house. If you would
|
|||
|
like another item or two devoted to these other ways, let the sysop know.
