      @@JA-oo9qp Rotational pressure on the keyway. The trick is enough pressure to hold the set pins above the sheerline while not so much that you can't push the working pin above the sheer line. If you release pressure the springs will push everything back down. If you have too much pressure you won't be able to move the working pin.
      If the pin you are working on is to tight to move you can try another one which may be less bound. So if watching LPL when he says "nothing on 1" it means he can't move 1 so he is going to try another pin "click out of 2" likely means he pushed and pin 2 first didn't move and then popped past the sheer line.

The point is to prevent those unskilled from entering, basically removing the temptation. If you saw open briefcase full of money you’d know that’s not your money but you would still have that temptation to take a few hundred if not a thousand dollars since it’s so easy. Though even if that briefcase is closed and perhaps tied to the bench you’d look at that like “there’s probably something valuable inside there but it’s not my business”
      Though someone who is knowledgeable and has the intent to commit a crime would see that case and be like “there’s probably something valuable inside that nice looking briefcase…. I could easily break that chain and pick the lock at home”

    I've been lockpicking as a hobby for a long while, but ironically it wasn't until I got a job in maintenance at a hotel (now supervisor) that it became practical. 😅 the surprising thing is that of all the maintenance people I know at a LARGE number of hotels... I'm the only one who knows how to do it 😳😂

      Im truth locks keep honest people out, and are used to give the illusion of security.
      That and symbolic value such as a store manager having the keys to the store to open or close it.
      A great example is if you had a unpickable lock on your house or store a thief will just use your window and a rock.

      If you can get a tool in, it can be picked. If it somehow the lock doesn't give any feedback (like the attempts by Stuff Made Here), then that's the closest to "unpickable" (picking is just guessing)

    Interesting how those little knobs make such a difference for deterrence. It messes with your picking attempts and makes you question whether you actually got the pin properly. It doesn't prevent picking but slows it?
