The Need for Practice

No amount of reading will make you good at picking locks. You need to practice often so that you develop the sense of feel. You need to learn how to feel the difference between a tumbler that has been picked and one that is in a locked position.

To practice lock picking, start with a cylinder that has only two pin stacks (or tumblers) in it. When you feel comfortable picking that, add another pin stack. Continue adding pin stacks or tumblers until you can at least pick a five-tumbler lock.

When you’re practicing, don’t rush. Take your time, and really focus on what you’re doing. Always visualize the inside of the lock and try to picture what’s happening while you’re picking the lock. For best results, practice under realistic circumstances. Instead of sitting in a comfortable living room chair trying to pick a cylinder, practice on locks that are on a door or on a display mount.

With a lot of focused practice, you’ll find yourself picking all kinds of locks faster than ever.
