It’s often the case that dialing the street address into the lock will open it.

My dude seems like the least likely Red Bull consumer I can imagine…always so measured and mellow.

You can use the same method on this Master Lock key box which I see everywhere.

Sometimes the measured and mellow have wings too.

BB has made me a fan of this guy. I like his cross overs with Bosnian Bill.

It has renewed my interest in lock picking. I just ordered some new tensioners. I need to find more locks to try.

Seems even easier than getting into his ex-girlfriend’s back door.

The cleaners who previously serviced my building abandoned one of these locks with a building key in it and I was able to pick it using a coke can shim like this.
Rad!

Throw in a can of Red Bull to seal the deal.

I locked myself out of one of these Master Lock boxes once and didn’t possess this level of patience or sophistication. It took two blows with a hammer and screwdriver to the hinge and popped open from the bottom. All the rubber and plastic at the top muffled the sound significantly. I wrote to the company to express my concern and they offered to send me the exact same model as a replacement.
