Noober here in West, TX. I bought me one of those Easy Pickings book and pick sets off the internet a couple of years ago. I have seemed to have misplaced the book, but I still have the picks. I finally decided to get to work with the picks. I picked a simple door knob here at my house and it got me excited. So, I picked up a lock setting around(a Master Lock 140) and its whoopn my butt. Anyways, Im glad to be here and hope to get to learn a bit more on this craft.

Another newbie here - from Down Under (Sydney in fact).
Found this site when I was looking for info on how the bi-lock systems work, and it's been a fascinating introduction to the world of locks.

Not really interested in picking them (I don't have the patience!) but my engineering brain is one that 'needs to know' so I can see me spending a lot of time browsing old threads on here.

Congrats to the site owners & mods - looks like a very well run site, without any of the crap that usually spoils internet forums.

Hello all;

I'm a second generation locksmith. I decided to try and find a locksmithing forum since all the posts I make on other forums about locksmithing seems to include the words "contact your local locksmith".

Just getting started.
Been interested in lock picking for a while now and finally decided to pick up a set and give it a try.
Thanks for this great site, it has provided a lot of useful information for me to get started.

Hello, All,

I've been lurking for a while, but I figured I'd finally register. I'm new to picking, but I find it fascinating. I suppose that I'm interested in just about every form of world-hacking, and lockpicking is definitely one of the most interesting.

Practical picker that enjoys the sport, but really likes being able to use the skills in the field and NOT calling a locksmith. No offense to locksmiths.

Hi All,
5 hours ago I started looking for a locksmith in NYC - one site to another; one article after another and here I am... Fascinating, intriguing - I love puzzles and this seems to be in the same arena.

Is there such a thing as a software/online lock simulation?

Not that I've seen but others may know. The closest thing is the little game I made a while back linked below. Be sure to read the documentation because the controls are...non-intuitive:

Hi everyone, euro apprentice lock picker here :)
I've always been thrilled by lock picking but was never more than a "paperclip picker" until a few days ago.
I decided to start learning more after I found out how easy it is to find info and learning material nowadays.. I never thought there would be so much around and even online communities :D

I've started locksportin about four months ago so I'm very new, but practice every day and have made leaps and bounds with success of picking locks. I've been reading this site for about two months and gotta give it two thumbs up!!
