Ive had this lock for a little while, and i cant hand pick it. Other doors are pretty easy to just rake open, but this one im having a little trouble with. anybody got pointers on this lock.

Learn how to spp :) I've raked a few locks but havent found it as reliable as spp'ing(there is plenty of info on this site) . If this lock is in use dont pick it you might end up breaking the lock. Aslo its a good idea to put up a photo.

Ive not come across this lock specifically so i'm not sure what type of security pins it has if it has any at all (without checking google).
