Re: Locksmith demolished lock

said by Jon5:

My brother did locksmithing for years as his own business. Picking locks isn't as easy as all the posters here like to think regardless of how many youtube how to videos they've watched. How many locks have you people picked? My guess is zero.

Took a few training classes locally offered by a locksmith years ago. That locksmith could get into any door lock in under 60 seconds. It takes practice but it's not hard. Making a loaf of bread from scratch isn't really hard either but most people can't do it right. Like most things in life knowledge is power.

People just need to realize a lock isn't anything more then a delay. The better the lock the longer the delay. In the end all locks fail.

The locks he brought to demonstrate on, right? Yeah I'm sure he could. Sorry, I don't buy it. My brother did it for years. It's not like you see on TV.

Pulling the front of a house off with a hook attached to an APC doesn't count.
