How To Use A Tension Load Tool

By Lela Perkins


Locksmith shops often use a tension load tool for their lock picking services. They usually pick out some locks that are worn out or damaged in time. They use it together with some other advanced equipment as well. To be successful in your task, there are some information that you should know about your chosen tasks.

Lock picking is often referred to as the art of unlocking a lock by simply manipulating the components of the device without using the original key. The ideal trick should not damage the components inside the device so that it can still be opened by a key. Although this can also be associated with criminal intent. Therefore, it is essential for a locksmith to use the skill for valid purposes.

For some situations, gaining access would come so easy. They often use equipment such as drill, bolt cutters, a bump key or a hydraulic jack. The weakest part of the device would certainly be the keyhole that is why some security items such as safes do not use the normal padlocks. To further heighten the security, locks are often used together with alarms.

Incorrect use of force is one of the major causes of lock picking failures. By using the exact and rightful tools combined with a thorough practice with regard to lock picking, surely you will be an expert. The right tools would help you determine the right amount of tension to be applied. This is commonly used for a normal house cylinder and is often made from aluminum or brass.

If you want to use such, simply place the tool near the device. Connect it to a door or some unmovable components so that it would be easy to apply force in it. There are markers that are even provided to signal you if you are already stretching the springs too much. Monitor it regularly before you decide to apply force.

These tools are proven and tested to be effective peculiarly if you decide to work in an enclosed place. This is due to the stressing that occurs in the bottom and top portion of a specific plug, thus would create a centralized rotation. This is only practical if you wish to rip a certain lock until it opens. This is caused by the applied tension that makes it even lighter to rotate.

Still, many locks are indeed difficult to open. This is because such devices are perfectly designed for limited access only. When a cylinder is already damaged and worn, applying normal tension to it will only cause it to bind therefore it is hopeless to open it.

There are lots of stores that sell this kind of tools. These often comes in a complete set. This comprises of a torsion wrench, snake rake and other picks such as the hook, double round and long double end.

Some countries even control the possession of this tension load tool. There are laws about it that vary from state to state. Possession of such is considered equivalent of having a crowbar which are used by burglars in committing crimes. Illegal possession of such is generally prosecuted and has some penalties and fines. For some states, only those businesses and establishments that deal about keys and locks are permitted to own one.
