conversations.value: Secrets Of Lock Picking
  The ancient Egyptians were the first to come up with a complicated security device. This was the pin tumbler lock. We use the same security principle today on millions of applications.
  The most commonly used lock today is the pin tumbler lock. A series of pins that are divided at certain points must be raised to these dividing points in relationship to the separation between the cylinder wall and the shell of the lock by a key cut for that particular series of pin divisions. Thus the cylinder can be turned, and the mechanism or lock is unlocked.
  Lock picking means to open a lock by use of a flat piece of steel called a pick. Actually, the process requires two pieces of flat steel to open cylinder locks. It amuses me to watch spies and thieves on TV picking locks using only one tool. But it is for the better in a sense. If everyone learned how to pick locks by watching TV, we would all be at the mercy of anyone who wanted to steal from us, and the cylinder lock for the most part would be outdated.
  The actual definition of lock picking should be: "The manipulation and opening of any restrictive mechanical or electronic device by usage of tools other than the implied instrument (key or code) used solely for that device." A little lengthy, but more accurate description. With cylinder locks, it requires a pick and a tension wrench.
  By picking the lock, you simply replace the function of a key with a pick that raises the pins to their "breaking point," and using a tension wrench one rotates the cylinder to operate the cam at the rear of the lock's cylinder to unlock the mechanism.

conversations.value: Lever locks are slightly more complex than warded locks. You have to catch the right levers to activate the bolt or shackle spring to unlock the lock. Again, feel has a major role in opening these locks—you have to search for the spring-loaded levers and rotate them 45 degrees in the direction of the lever location; in other words, turn towards the side on which the levers are located.
  For desk-type lever-locks, there are two parts that have to be moved to open or close them—the lever and the bolt. If you were to put pressure against the bolt and push it in, you will notice that the "stop" will not allow it to go in since it hits the levers.
  If the levers are raised to their respective heights, the bolt can be operated to open the lock by motion of the key. When the proper key is inserted in the lock, the notches in the key are cut so that they line up all the levers and allow the stop to enter the gates. At the same time, the key forces the bolt in or out.
  In order to pick the lever-lock, you are going to have to line up the levers and draw the bolt back to the open position. Remember, if this lock is still in the desk, you will not be able to see any of the moving parts unless you use a penlight. By rotating the keyhold guide while shining your light in the keyway, you will be able to locate the levers.
  Figure 24. At the top is a lever key in its keyhole guide. Use the lever-lock Magic Key (above) to pick the lever-lock.

  If you respect the security of the lock and do not become overconfident, you will never become disappointed if you fail to open it. You also increase your chances of opening the lock because you personally have nothing to gain or lose by opening it. Give up trying to be an expert and just pick the lock.
  With such an attitude, you may find the lock will usually pop right open. I never received a trophy for being the best lock picker in the state. My satisfaction is in knowing that I am never helpless in a lockout situation. The quality of your success is almost romantic; it involves sensitivity and compassion in the face of curiosity as a means to help others.
  Visualization and imagination are important to the lock picker. I've noticed that people who have the ability to visualize the internal parts of the lock that they are picking seldom fail to open it in moments. Anyone can learn to do this by simply remembering to do it while picking a lock. Since sight, sound, and touch are involved with the process, visualization is very easy to do. Try to keep all of your attention on the lock during the picking process. This will help you to learn how to use heightened sensitivity for picking locks.
  So in that respect, an unopened lock is like a new and unexplored lover. You imagine all of the qualities of an attractive person whom you've just met and apply that feeling to the lock that you are picking. Use visualization. It will help immensely.
