How are locks picked?
<|assistant|>
Lock picking is the practice of using tools to open a lock without using a valid key. Generally, a lock picking tool, such as a specially crafted hook or rake, is used to locate and then remove the pins inside the lock’s cylinder that control the lock’s mechanism. These pins can then be reset to unlock the lock. Additionally, some locks can be picked with codes or dials and techniques known as “tamper resistance.”
