Picked all the easy locks and want to step up your game? Further your lock picking techniques, exchange pro tips, videos, lessons, and develop your skills here.
yeah, that would indeed be an all in one lol, as for the two sticking out on the left, I would go with possibly wafer auto locks, maybe even a GM sidebar if you think you are up to it for the other 6 locks, maybe you could go by lock difficulty instead of number of pins, ex: start out with a kwikset, go to a schlage or yale, and end up with like a dimple lock or something possibly easier
It's ok guys, i have a really bad attention sp-wow look, a beach!
Would it be practial to put 1-3/8" holes in for rim cylinders? The operation is the same, but the action of opening a nightlatch/panic bar is different, requires different tension, harder turning pressure after picking etc.
BTW, I would recommend leaving the bolts in your locks. One of the first locks I picked was in a KIK unit in my hand, I don't know how many times I had it picked before I realized I wasn't turning hard enough to retract the latch.
If you made 2-1/8" holes in your current boards (good call with the handles by the way) you should be good to put KIK's in them for different practice feel. If you did 1-1/2 or 1-5/8" holes, you might want to do one or two with bigger cross-bores to put KIK's in.
