Burg Waechter boccia

Postby Gypro » 21 Feb 2007 18:16

I just bought an interesting lock, the Burg Waechter boccia and I can't pick it.
Here is a pic:

The key is a flat key with holes. I'm sorry that i can't provide a better pic for showing you the key.

But if you know the lock maybe you can advice me how to pick it. My problem is after I set the first 2 pins all other pins feel like they would be jammed.
I'm pretty sure that this lock doesn't have mushroom pins because it was 8€ cheap.

Thanks for posting.

I think those locks have security pins in them to impede picking. You should try searching this forum for that lock brand.

It sounds like a dimple key to me.
If a lock is a puzzle, then its key is the complete picture

I guess I found the sourse of my problem. There are 3 pins on the top of the lock I didn't noticed. These pins don't have a spring and I have no idear how to pick them.
I thought these pins would just be show so I jammed the holes in the key for this 3 pins with a thin layer of metal ( red bull can). So the key locked loke ther were no holes in for this pins. The metal layer bent a bit but the lock did open.

Now I'm totaly confused!!!

I have picked several locks with security pins and I'm sure thera are no one in this lock.
So it could be the 3 top pins which jam the lock. But the test with the metal layer should have proved that they have no effect.

So what can I do.

Does any one no pins without springs?
What are they good for?
How do they work?

Yes it's a dimple key. With 5 holes on the one side and 3 on the other.

The Boccia uses spool pins, so you better work on that. I don't think the 3 pins in the top are important, probably just passive pins.
It's not the tools that open the lock. It's me.
