Looks vaguely like something that Should Not Be Opened (TM). Educational purposes? Sounds... fishy.

Well the guy is new, more interested in pick guns than picks (because it's his "livelihood", but he doesn't seem to be a locksmith), and posts a picture of one very specific thing with no context at all.

I'm sorry, my brain has alarm bells going off like crazy.

Just as I asked, I see nothing wrong here ;) if I'm new in this forum does not mean that I do not know anything and I do not understand about lockpicking! if your knowledge makes its way through the edge of, nothing to prevent their spread in other sections ;) i'm just interested about these kinds of locks, also that's not the bank's safe deposit box photo that would look suspicious! ;)

I do not find what looks like a power entry panel any less supsicious than a bank box to me. A bank box has several forms of security to include video cameras, a power junction box could be something much more devastating than stealing from a bank. With that said, it's not about suspiscion it's about why do you want to bypass this? This is a lockpicking, PICKING community not a bypassing community and we are very friendly to enthusiasts of the sport, but not to people who come in asking right off the bat about the usual tools of a criminal or someone who has not shown actual interest in locks and lock picking. A pick gun and a buy pass key are not tools that the community uses they are instements of fast entry used by professionals and emergency personel. Everyone who comes in here and asks questions like this gets the same harrasment, if they last and become interested in the sport they sometimes see why it's like that. Most have 2 or 3 even up to 20 posts then start to realize they aren't into this and leave. So if we were to say yes, Key X opens that box every time and you were a criminal we would have given you access to whatever that is, and lets say that is a power junction box for en entire neighborhood, or even a hospital and you are a janitor who got fired from said hospital and you want to get back at them by knocking there power out, how do we know to trust you right off the bat with such suspicous vauge questions? It's not personel, it's self preservation of the community.
What most people call intelligence I call common sense.
