Could this even be picked?

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

ok maybe im missing something here. but thats a European safe lock. god knows how this hasnt been locked yet. we used to have something less complicated on a shop i worked in, and that used to regularly hold over 300,000 GBP or about 600,000 USD.

yes it can be picked. but not easily. if you asking about the tools needed then you don't have a chance at picking it.

Plus last time i saw one of these it was behind t2 locked security doors. and about 16 cameras. im sure you wouldn't be stupid enough to try and pick a lock that isnt yours but safe locks are for advanced forums only. sorry dude

BTW if you asking if its a good lock for a safe and u have a safe it will fit

GET IT, its a good price and as romstar said nearly no one in the states picks lever locks and i doubt there would be many people at all that could open that thing. it looks like a 14lever lock. also im not sure if those keys are original. most of the time the keys come in 2 pieces. so one person will have the handle and shaft and the other person will have the part that moves the levers.

I think it's a 6 lever lock by Potent. The bolt step is in the middle of the key bit with space for 6 double bittings either side. It's got so many cuts since it has to work back and front of the door. The keys are only folding if it's for a very thick door, like a vault. There's nothing terribly special or secure about this type of lock, they just look rather intimidating because of all the bolts :wink:
