I don't see any images.
The BiLock isn't the first bump proof pin tumbler because it isn't a pin tumbler.
And it's called a shear line, not a "sheerline".

It's a dimple lock... can't make out the brand, but it looks pretty generic. They're no different to normal pin tumblers apart from the orientation of the keyway and how the keys are cut. The technique for picking them is exactly the same, it's just a different kind of pick movement.

Since it's in a door, I'd advise you stay away from it and buy one to play with instead... all sorts can go wrong when you're a newbie. Even if it's your lock and you can afford to deal with any mishaps, you shouldn't be messing with it until you really know what you're doing.

Welcome to the site :D

At a guess, it's made by AGB but the photos seem to have been taken with the world's worst camera so it's hard to tell.

Inside the lock:

Put it in the lock, insert a wrench and jiggle it like you do when you franticly jerk off each night.

Does no-one bother to try finding things out for themselves? The next post will be asking whether or not to use toilet paper to wipe their arse...

Assuming you know how locks work and have picked some before, it's not exactly hard to figure out. If you haven't picked anything before then sorry, you can't just have everything handed to you on a plate like that. Whereas I could give you very detailed step by step instructions on how to pick that exact lock, I shouldn't have to... y'know? ;)

This site is full of information, everything you need and more... if you had a more specific question it'd be fine, but asking flat out how to pick this lock suggests to me that you haven't done any research or even tried to pick anything yet. That's not cool!! You're expected to have some level of understanding before asking questions on specific locks... I'm not trying to be horrible, put yourself in our shoes. If you ask a chess master how to win at chess and you've never played before, don't be surprised if he tells you to go learn the basics and stop wasting his time :mrgreen:

I hope you can understand where I'm coming from here. Most people who sign up asking how to pick "this one lock" are only wanting to open it so they can show off, save some money on calling a locksmith, or they're up to no good. Stick around, learn some stuff, see what you can feel inside the lock first and then come back with questions. And seriously, buy your own lock to practice on incase something goes wrong :shock:
