Bump key and disc tumblers

[erierick]

Can a bump key be used to open a 5 disc tumbler?

no.. it'd be pretty funny watching you try though

i think the key would go straight through the middle of all 5 or 6 discs in the lock and not do anything. Or maybe you can use it as a jiggler key if the lock is worn out enough.

how would you use it as a jiggler if you have to apply torque to open it? i assume you mean jiggling it in and out of the lock? Either way, i think Abloys are adv. forum, so we should probably close this up unless an admin says otherwise
