Bi Locks

Postby stonedsmurf » 17 May 2006 5:35

Hello everyone,
I was just wondering wether it was easy to pick 'bi locks'. Can you pick them pin by pin?

Im sorry if this question has been asked before.

Thanks! :D

Probably :wink:

Bi Locks are considered an advanced lock, and as such are not discussed in the public forum.

Pin by Pin? If you have a few hours and some BiLock experience.

Easy? When you can build fiber optic cable from a window using only a knife, Then you will have your answer.


Picking techniques will only be discussed in the advanced forums.

You know if you wouldn't have wasted that extra keystroke in capitalizing the 'G' in "Guys", then you would have had the extra energy and time necessary to spell out the word "to" in it's entirety...

Think about the last word you said, as you will find it is the answer to the Advanced Section question.

BiLocks

Postby greyman » 18 May 2006 5:42

This is not to tell how to pick a BiLock, but only to discuss whether it's possible. When BiLocks were released in Australia in the 1980's (I think), they were actually not hard to pick especially if master keyed. The more recent BiLocks I have seen all use anti pick features that make the lock next to impossible to pick. The new generation Bilock has an extra feature that requires a moveable element in the key.

Trust me, i have opened them and it wasn't easy, know your lock.


I guess it is possible, Falle has a foil tool to open the non slider versions which takes 7 minutes to produce a key impression.

But, what are Bi Locks? Are they locks that swing both ways?
