How to Pick a lock Basics, and Lock Picking Tips

You can find all this information and more in our guide on HOW TO PICK A LOCK 

Using Your Lock Pick Tension Wrench

Place your tension wrench into the bottom of the keyway and apply a very light degree of force in the direction that the key would turn to disengage the typically clockwise. Press with very light force (similar to the force used to press a keyboard key). if you're having no luck opening a lock, try pressing a little harder, or lighter on your tension wrench. The tension you use on a lock is extremely important, so practice makes perfect. 

Using Your Lock Pick Rake

With your tension wrench in position, insert your rake into the keyway and push all the way back to the back of the lock gently lifting upward, raising some pins. Now, with a decent amount of speed begin to scrub the pins like you're brushing your teeth, change the angle, height, and speed as you rake back and forth. If after 10-25 seconds it doesn't open, release the tension wrench and start over. It's not uncommon to need to restart multiple times with this method. Continue scrubbing back and forth until the lock finally opens. You can also experiment with more or less tension on your tension wrench if you're not having any luck.
