4 METHODS TO OPEN YOUR LOCKED DOOR

1. OPEN DOOR WITH A CREDIT CARD

Opening your locked door with a credit card is the easiest and the fastest among all four door unlocking methods. It is very simple, you just need to slide the card between the door and the frame. But before you insert the card in the gap between the door and the frame, locate the spot of the latch. Insert the card and then slide it down while you jiggle the door.

Please note; that this method does not always work, it depends on the amount of space between your door and the frame. If this method doesn’t work, please try method #2.

2. BUMPING YOUR LOCK OPEN

To bump your lock open, you need to use a bump key. You can buy a bump key, but probably you are in a rush to open your door. In this case, you can make your homemade bump key.

HOW TO MAKE A BUMP KEY

1) To begin, you will need a key blank or an old/useless key that you don’t need and has the same keyway as your lock. For instance; if you have a Schlage lock on your door, you need a Schlage key blank to use as a bump key. You also need a file.

2) File the maximum depth at each cut on the key, in most cases, you should have five cuts on your key.

3) At the end of your process, the key in your hand will look like the key in the picture.

4) Sand and remove any shredded pieces from the cuts of your bump key so the teeth are not jagged.

HOW TO BUMP YOUR LOCK OPEN?

1) Strike the key with a hammer or any other hard tool. Be careful not to miss the key and hit your fingers!

2) While you strike the key with a hammer, turn the key as the key is struck, in the unlocking direction.
You may take a few hits, as it does not always work on the first try.

3. PICKING THE LOCK

This is the hardest method because to pick a door lock, you need lock-picking tools and some skills. Yet, with a little bit of luck, you may be able to pick the lock on your door. First of all, you need a lock-picking set that you can make with a paperclip and a tiny screwdriver. You can use the screwdriver as a tension wrench and the paperclip as a needle to pick the lock.

You simply apply a little tension on the tension wrench to spin the lock cylinder while you manipulate the pins (5 pins) inside the lock cylinder. It might take you some time until you will be able to spin the cylinder and pop your lock open.

4. DRILLING THE LOCK

The last door-unlocking method is drilling the lock. You can either drill the lock cylinder to spin the cylinder to unlock the door, or you can drill the lock to remove it completely from your door.

Drilling the lock is hard and dirty work. With this in mind, we recommend that you do not start drilling the lock if you don’t know how to do that. In this case, you should call professional lockout assistance to drill the lock for you.
