I think this is a challenge.....I,ve read an article about this lock and it seems difficult to pick according to the author,difficult in my book means hard but not impossible :D Any updates about this lock and its flaws?

I know I am a newby but everybody needs a challenge haha,I am studying locks for quite some time and thought that now it,s a good time to open my mouth and see what answers I,ll get

:wink:

He is not referring to a lock that is related to the Kaba Gemini. The lock in question is in fact called the Drumm Geminy Shield. It provides a highly robust shield for the cylinder in the door.

This is a unique and fascinating lock. I am sure details regarding picking this lock are advanced forum material however.

For those interested, Han Fey did an excellent review of this lock : http://www.toool.nl/drumm-geminy.pdf
