Easily Make Improvised Lock Picks With Paper Clips + Raking Demo

I show you how to bend and use paper clips as lock picks, in a pinch when you do not have a real lock pick set available to you.

This is not going to be as effective as having a real lock pick set, but the good thing is, if you have a few paper clips with you and the ability to bend them, you can make a few of them and use the best you have to try raking a lock open quickly.

Also you can have big paper clips and small paper clips and use what ever is best suited to the lock you are working with. Great for locksport people who do not want the possible legal ramifications of having lock picks on you.

Remember, practise makes higher success. This is only a simple raking technique, there are more advanced picking techniques where you manipulate a single pin at a time, called SPP (Single Pin Pickins) which can be done by simply bending one single time to make a hook shape instead of the wavy pattern.

This can work on dead bolts, filing cabinets, cash boxes, padlocks etc. There are no guarantees but if it is the similar lock style as what is shown, it might work... If a lock has particularly challenging bitting, raking as shown may not work well and you would need to single pin pick which takes more experience to do. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEyQCfhSB0E
