Kind of Funny but now I Need Help

Information about locks themselves. Questions, tips and lock diagram information should be posted here.

Kind of Funny but now I Need Help

Postby wako10132 » 26 Aug 2008 20:01

So when my parents found out that I'd bought a lock pick set they flipped, but now if they lose keys they ask me for help. So I had to open the box we keep our keys in. Thing is, I've never played with that lock before so I don't even know what kind of mechanism I'm dealing with.

Anyway I spent a few minutes playing with it and it opened (yay me). But I don't even know what I did to open the thing, so now I'm curious. Can anyone link me to a diagram of one of these locks? I have pictures of the box (below) but I don't know what needs to be manipulated to open the lock, all I know is it's simple. XD

Sorry about the quality on that last pic, it's a new camera (in other words I haven't figured it out yet).

So what street address is your parents business in Tampa Florida? You do realize we see the exact cuts of all the keys to all of their offices and vehicles right?

Not very smart of you to post that photo, so I hope you have a way to remove it.

And if this is your parent's box, why does it look like its at some Doctor's office? I think there's a reason your parents flipped. Owning lockpicks and picking locks comes with a lot of responsibility. You're not showing much right now.

tread lightly grasshopper.
