Lockpicking with Paperclips (Video)

Hi, i just made a small Video, showing Lockpicking only with Paperclips. It's good, but the Tools breakes easly

.

I don't added Music, so you can hear the Sounds of the Lock opening.

Have fun.

I still have some of my first picks I made out of paper clips, I keep them to remind me that I could still pick an easy lock with just paper clips if I had too. I don't really use them because they would only last a few times then bend too far out of shape or break INSIDE the lock.

Yes... i screwed my Lock, because the fat thing on the Spanner is broken into the lock, and i can't take it out... well, i think i have to wait when my pickset comes, then i can extract it hopefully

Try for an American or one of those bigger brinks padlocks - I guarantee you won't be 'pwning' them nearly as quickly.

A long time ago, when I was 14 or something, I opened a padlock like this with a single paperclip. Single paperclip, you wonder? Can't work! Well, it was bypass not picking : I curved the clip end to make a hook, inserted it in the keyhole, found a part where it got springy and turned the paper clip. It opened. And I thought that was picking. I didn't understand why that didn't work with other locks. I then lost interest for "picking" for some ten years. It took the MIT guide to refuel it. I subscribed to this forum nearly immediately after founding the guide on the net, but didn't stay long, while I continued to train with locks I bought. I'm sorry I lost this padlock, because I would have loved to make a video of it.

sounds like a warded lock so yes very posible

by **jabial** » 25 Dec 2006 6:59

No, it was not a warded lock. The key was a regular key for pin-tumbler or wafer locks.
