We like to say that lock picking is practical brain training. The challenge of learning how things work, how to take them apart and how to put them back together. The mechanism behind locks and how they work just intrigues me and you can tinker with them while you're doing other things. Every new lock is a new puzzle.

I enjoy how picking locks improves my manual dexterity and allows me to think through the locking pins problem simultaneously. It's such a fantastic skill to have.

Once you have the boxed set in your hands, you'll see exactly what I mean once you pop open your first lock without a key. Instant euphoria and great sense of achievement!

You'll also learn how locks get jammed, how your keys get stuck in them, why older locks break, and it'll get you thinking about lock mechanisms for days. And once you're finished with the practice locks - you'll be hungry for more lock challenges. Practical puzzles are addic

3. Best Lock Pick Set - Dangerfield Serenity Lock Pick Set

 

One of the most frequent questions we are asked is “What’s the best set for a beginner?” That question was finally answered for the last time when designing the Serenity set. An introductory lock pick set needs to be punchy, compact, no-nonsense and high quality. These are the core defining qualities of this set.

But more – we wanted to make a beginner lock pick set that didn’t need to be replaced, one that would last well into the future. There’s no reason a starter set needs a shelf-life. The Serenity lock pick set offers an affordable popular and professional collection of useful lock pick tools and wrenches picked out specially for you.

 

Just add a Clear Training Lock and you can get started instantly.

5. Best Lock Pick Set - The Goso Beginners Lock Pick Set

We understand that not everyone wants to spend money on a new hobby, or skill. So if that's you, this is the set for you .

A practice lock is not included with these picks - to cut down on cost - you can get a reasonable practice lock from our store so at least you can still watch your spending, but this set is totally functional and an acceptable first lock pick set.

It has all the picks you'll need, tension wrenches and more, held securely in a multi-pocket, protective black wallet for everyday use. Just add a Clear Training Lock and you'll have the very basics to start.

If you think you're going to be using a set of lock picks for longer, or more regularly - I recommend you spend that little bit extra, and go for any of the other more comprehensive sets. But if you just want to give lock picking a try, this is the set for you.

Click the Buy Now button below, and we'll add it to your shopping cart and send you to our ecommerce store. You can then enter your details, and head towards the secure payment page.

Me and my friends have a blast picking at the included practice locks. Out of humor I put the credit card kit into my wallet, and it came in handy when I forgot the key to one of my padlocks....

Erick D.

 

This is a great deal!I have bought beginner kits before, but I did not get half the stuff for the price. What I did get was not as high quality either.I questioned the "spy card" and it seemed a little "tacti-cool" and gimmicky, but in reality, the picks in that kit tend to be my go to set. It is small, light, and easy to carry.The practice lock alone runs half the cost of this kit. I can't speak enough about how pleased I am with it.Great deal - Keep it up guys....

Great products and awesome service!!

The Southord PXS-14 is a great beginner set, customer service is the best! I ordered a practice lock with the lock pick kit, both arrived a day early!

Great set

This is a great beginners set. It has a little bit of everything and comes at a great price. Still working though the ebook but so far I am very satisfied with the purchase.

Great product for beginners!

I'd had some experience picking locks laying around but this was my first purchase of a targeted training lock. The acrylic is neat to see what's going on while working a given pin.
