Mul-T-locks...possibe?

Postby DavidMN » 29 Mar 2007 19:28

i searched but didn't found a definite answer. i was told mul-t-locks are impossible to pick, i'm not talking about bumping. Is it true? Thanks for your replies.

Just think

Think about what you just asked.

The physical manipulation of pins impossible?

Now, go search a little more. Look at some diagrams, draw your own conclusions, and then post a reply.

Dunno about the animation but this topic is without question, advanced material. A Moderator will probably soon lock this thread.
If a lock is a puzzle, then its key is the complete picture

accordind to the link "Nearly impossible to
insert picks"


wha....? looked just as wide as old style kwickset keyway to me when I glanced at one.
If you can't make it work try yelling "aww d*****t!" and throwing your tools it never worked for my pops but it entertained me :)

Well... granted, this topic is barely skirting the "advanced" side of things, but I think linking to Deviant's site is fine.

But in answer to the OP's question... yes, Mul-T-Lock's can in fact be picked/bypassed.

'nuff said. :)

Nothing is impossable, all locks can be picked by someone,

MTL picks can be bought,

MTL locks are not even regarded as a hard pick by those that do them,

MTL picking is advanced material,
