Nothing Is Safe -- You Can Pick Just About Any Lock With This Common Item
I've lost count of how many times I've accidentally locked myself out of my house.
It's embarrassing at this point. Thankfully, though, there's always been a spare key close by. Then again, if I'm ever in a pinch without one, I could probably fall back on a simple paper clip.
Don't believe me? Just take a look at all the locks you can pick with this common office supply! You'll be a regular MacGyver in no time!
For this kind of lock, straighten your paper clip out and bend it into a U. Loop it through to the inside and then back around to the outside. Finally, pull.
Instructables
For a push button lock, straighten the paper clip out and stick it into the hole where the key would go. Jiggle it a little and you should quickly find and release the latch.
Instructables
Latch doors are simple to open with a clip. Straighten it out, put it through the crack, and move it upwards.
Instructables
You can even break into your luggage lock if you lose the key. You may need pliers to twist your paper clip into a little loop, but once you do, just insert it into the lock and twist it like a key.
Instructables
If you've got a deadbolt, you can pick it with two paper clips...here's how!
