3D-printed 'bump keys' are a tech-savvy lockpicker's best friend

The real question is, buckshot, or those sissy door breaching rounds?

 

Buckshot.

 

Cause if anyone is behind the door, yay. Or not yay if they aren't.

Saw off the latch with a reciprocating saw or a grinder with a metal cutoff wheel. It will be open within 3 minutes tops.

 

We accidentally locked the office without the key before leaving on vacation, and my dad had to do this when we got back.

 

Well yes but that is not the most subtle way to break into someone's house

I wonder if they could print a key that will let them get past my doberman?

If you just talk to any professional lockpickers they'll tell you that locks on your house are just to keep your average Joe from doing something stupid and landing himself in jail.  If a thief really wanted to get into your house they'd do it the easiest and quickest way possible, because they don't give a shit about the damages.

Or just lift the door mat and grab the key.

Not as sneaky or inconspicuous as printing a key. .

I can unlock a door without anything but a simple tool that I won't mention.

 

In terms of this key, I don't get why the locksmiths went public about it, they could have sold the idea privately.

A drill?
