FACT: I've opened more locked doors with our lock picking shim cards than any other lock picking tool.
Our lock bypass cards are a true locksmith secret, and way better than the amateur attempts with credit cards that you see in the media. If you want to slip a card in between a door frame and a lock - this is the improved version of what you were imagining.
The brass latch that keeps a door locked can be depressed, which allows the door to open. The problem is getting through the tiny gap between the door and the door-frame and depressing the latch. The solution is a latch-shim.
These latch-shims are made of MICA - an extremely flexible but strong material which will slip between door and door-frame and then allow you to slide down, engaging and the depressing the latch, allowing you to open the door.
Locksmiths have been using this proven technique to open locked doors for decades. It's simple, quick, and WORKS!
I've opened literally HUNDREDS of locked doors with this product.
You've seen it done in the movies with a credit card. And while the idea is right, the material is not.
Our Mica cards have two incredible properties which make it perfect for this simple door opening trick:
- Extreme Flexibility - can get round the harsh angles of a door and frame
- Extreme Strength - they will not break, crack, or tear when pushing the latch
The technique is simplicity itself:
- Insert card between door and door frame
- Locate latch
- Gently force latch back into housing with MICA
- Open door
- Be a superhero!
If there's one lock picking tool I don't want to be without on a job it's these great utility cards - it's quite simply a MUST HAVE for any serious lock opener.
This set has FIVE sheets in various thicknesses.
