Lock Picking & Specialized Entry Techniques

Lock Picking & Specialized Entry Techniques is our flagship, hands-on-intensive covert entry training program that focuses on gaining entry by such methods as lock picking and lock bypassing. Techniques learned in this course are directly responsible for saved lives through welfare checks, apprehensions through arrest warrants and the successful execution of search warrants throughout North America.

With over 2,000 personnel trained, this course is of benefit to any member of law enforcement including, but not limited to, patrol officers, tactical operators, investigators, probation officers, conservation officers as well as government and military personnel. You’ll learn how to gain entry into a variety of locks to include deadbolts, knob locks, padlocks, aircraft, electronic access locks, automobiles, pushbutton mechanical locks, digital and mechanical safes, hotel room doors, magnetic hardware and many, many more. Due to the nature of covert entry training, attendance is limited to sworn law enforcement officers and active duty military personnel.

This course is designed to prepare you to employ your new skills in the real world immediately after graduation. The formula for this is saturation lock picking training. Nearly the entire time you’re in class, you’ll have a lock and lock picks in your hands. Because of this, it’s not uncommon for a graduate to use their skills in the field the same day of graduation. Take a look at some of our stories from the field below and see real-world benefits of this covert entry training.

If you’re a law enforcement officer or a member of the military, check out the Restricted Section. That’s where we post videos of tools, tricks and techniques for lock picking and lock bypassing. This is a very popular, free resource available to any law enforcement officer or military member. You do not have to be a graduate of our class to gain admission. While you’re here, check out the training calendar below or take a look at the option of hosting the course at your agency. If you’re seeking lock picking training and covert methods of entry, you’re in the right place. Learn the specifics on our class.

 

You can see all four of these techniques (and more) right now in the Restricted Section. It’s a free resource to members of law enforcement and the military and again, you do not have to be a graduate of our course to gain admission.
