Had a warrant in the locksmith N1 area on a U.P.V.C door bog standard unbranded Euro. Thought no problems easy pick should know not to presume anything in this game Laughing any way cylinder picked open in seconds but plug would only turn 1/4 way and then went solid.
After a few more goes trying special keys and re picking it suddenly came to me. I lifted door handle and that took pressure of the cam and allowed the plug to turn. Just wondered if any of you guys have had this problem, if not I hope it helps if you come across this. As you say you can never assume that the lock/mech is going to work as it should do, so thinking out the box when it doesn’t happen as it should do is a must. Same with jobs for customers. People get used to how their particular lock works, so often even a simple lock change, then testing can make you feel you have done something wrong as the lock may stick, not quite go into keeps etc? I always test where possible the old locks before any replacement to see how it works.
Don’t know anything about Dimple locks, how they work etc, been looking at the vids and wondering is it as easy as its looks, Just started to get into SPP and been picking a few Euros, nothing too difficult 5&6 pin and want to try the next stage up, any advice please on what spade picks to use and how to use them, got a couple of old locks that I can have a play with. The theory is the same as a normal euro looking for binding pins and movement on the plug, the trouble I had when learning dimples is the sort of rolling action with the pick to roll on top of a pin, snapped loads of picks by twisting too much and using too much pressure when getting frustrated. I can’t really give any advice on picking as I’ve only picked a few I got a few sets of dimple picks from the boys at the cheap emergency locksmith N1 but the one's I really want are from sks Souber Mul-T-Lock fast locksmith pick set. A set of 5 picks and 4 tension tools complete with a leather wallet. Specially designed to work on the 'Classic' and 'Interactive' popular right hand sections. This pick set uses a simple step by step technique. Instructions included.
I’ve heard of a lot of people making their own with better results, I’m yet to make anything better than what I already got though. Check out this had a job today key stuck in lock, would turn about 200 degrees and stop and would not come out even when returned to the top. it was the rite key. I had to snap the cylinder. Opened door changed cylinder i thought the handle was the problem but spindle was working fine could the mpl be damaged as i cannot put my finger on the reason for this unless one or more pins in the cylinder were damaged when entering the key I’m out of ideas. Went to a double patio door with euros in the locksmith N1 shops franchise area as a favour, key works on one side but not the other door, occupier states key won’t turn lock. Tried key in one lock works, tried in other lock won’t turn at all. `Are you sure they work from the same key....YES`. |
