Hi all..nice to a new member here!
I am trying to pick a lock and the key is on the left.
Is this what is called a single sided wafer lock or double sided?

Also what picks do you recommend to try to open it?
I lost my key and this pic is one I found.

Thanks a lot

Please post a photo of the actual lock, and what it is attached to. Is this pic you found a photo you took of your own keys or a photo you found on google?

If it is a bike lock, we do not discuss how to open those, because we can't really tell who on the Internet might mis-use the information to do something bad like steal a bike.
