A flag-type dimple lock pick set for single pin picking
Dimple locks turn up on a lot of better domestic and commercial doors, and they ask for a different approach than the picks in your starter set. The key has rounded dimples drilled into the flat face of the blade, so the pins sit deeper in the keyway and have to be lifted from a different angle. This set gives you flag-type dimple picks shaped to reach those pins one at a time, plus a wrap-up case to keep them rolled together between sessions.
A different keyway needs a different pick
A standard pin tumbler key is cut along the top edge, and you pick it with hooks and rakes that ride that edge. A dimple key is flat along the edge with shallow round dimples milled into the face instead. Those dimples push pins that are arranged in a row down inside the keyway, often top and bottom, where an ordinary hook cannot sit cleanly or reach far enough.
Flag picks solve that. The flat, blade-like tip slides into the dimple keyway and lifts each pin to the shear line in turn. That is single pin picking, the same discipline you already know from pin tumblers, applied to a lock that hides its pins in a new place.
Tension, find the binding pin, lift to the shear line
Set light rotational tension on the core, then slide a flag in and find the pin that is binding. Lift it gently until it sets, hold the tension you have gained, and move along the row to the next one. Reset and start clean any time the feedback turns to mush. Dimple work rewards a patient, light hand far more than force.
The fastest way to learn this is on a lock you can see into. A clear dimple cylinder shows the pin stacks moving while your fingers learn what each flag is telling you, so the feel and the mechanism line up in your head.
Move from flat keyways into dimple cylinders
This is a step beyond your first house-lock practice, and it is well within reach. The technique is learnable, but real opens still come down to the lock, its condition, and the time you put into the feel. Take it slowly and the dimple keyway stops feeling like a wall.

Quick answers from the LockPickWorld bench
What is this used for?
Picking dimple locks. That is the lock family whose key wears round dimples milled into its flat face rather than cuts along the top edge.
How do I know my lock is a dimple lock?
Look at the key. Round or oval dimples milled into the flat face, often on both sides, means dimple. A jagged edge-cut key means a standard pin tumbler, so reach for ordinary picks instead.
Can I learn this if I am newer to picking?
Yes. It builds on single pin picking, so the discipline carries over. Learn it on a clear dimple practice cylinder first so you can see the pins set while your hands catch up.
What should I pair it with?
A clear dimple practice cylinder to learn on, and a dimple rake set if you want a faster first pass before finishing pins one at a time with the flags.
Take on the dimple locks your starter set cannot
When the key wears dimples on its face, this is the kit built for it. Keep your tension light, work each pin to the shear line, and let a clear dimple cylinder teach your fingers the feel.
