Lock Picking

Lock picking is a method used to open a lock without a key by manipulating its internal components. It involves inserting specialized tools—like tension wrenches and picks—into the lock's mechanism to align the pins or discs, allowing the lock to turn freely. Skilled practitioners can do this quickly and quietly, often for locksmithing or security testing purposes. It's important to note that lock picking should only be performed legally and ethically, with proper authorization. Essentially, it is the art of understanding and skillfully manipulating lock mechanisms to gain access without damaging the lock.
