Destructive entry is NOT (do you get that evereyone?) NOT discussed on the open forums,

Proctor, you need to be picking locks not smashing them,

This is not your lock in anyway, t was loaned to you and youve broken it and thats backed up by you wanting to replace it before it gets noticed,

Smashing a lock because you cant pick it is also a very childish way of gogin about things, if theres a problem then earn how to sort it not destry it, it is was me i would have asked how to repair the lock not smash it open,

Smashing a padlock open with ahammer? do you think a padlock should be sold if it can be opened with a hammer? do you now consider that hitting it with a hammer may not open it?

You mention B+Q so now we know your in the uk but it would help if you actually put your area in your profile,

You buy 3 locks today? whys that? smash them up and say youve picked them?
Buy ONE lock, a Yale or ERA for the privce of your crappy ones then follow the guide on my www button to learn to pick, one lock that can easily be repinned is the same as having hundreds of locks at your disposal,

Im locking this thread for the destructive aspect of it and the fact its not even your lock your destroying, lockpicking requires a certain amount of matureity and you dont seem to have enough right now, is your name jason by any chance?

There are hundreds of threads on stripping al sorts of locks, your not the first to want to do it and wont be the last so why not have a look for them :wink:
