What is Lock Picking
Lock picking means opening a lock without its key by manipulating its internal components. It is a core locksmith skill and allows us to open many doors without damage. Most burglars use force instead, but modern anti-pick features — such as security pins and complex keyways found in quality 3-star cylinders — make picking slow and impractical.
If you’re worried about how secure your locks are, ask us for a security survey.
