## Frequently Asked Questions

- [FAQs](https://www.lockpickworld.com/pages/faqs-commonly-asked-and-answered-questions): Common questions about lock picking, legality, shipping, returns, and getting started.

### Are lock picks legal?
Lock pick sets are legal to buy, own, and use in the vast majority of US states. Most states have no restrictions. A handful (Tennessee, Ohio, Virginia, Nevada, Mississippi) require proof of criminal intent before possession becomes an offense. For locksmithing, security work, education, or hobby use, you are completely fine.

### How long does it take to learn lock picking?
Most people open their first lock within an hour, often much sooner with clear practice locks. Basic competence with common pin tumbler locks develops within a few weeks of casual practice.

### What lock pick set should a beginner buy?
We recommend the Lokko Beginners Box with the illustrated guidebook ($59.99). It includes 16 professional picks, 2 clear practice locks, a covert card kit, and a 60-page step-by-step guide — everything needed to start picking immediately.

### Are these real professional tools or toys?
These are professional-grade tools made from hardened 301 stainless steel — the same quality working locksmiths use. "Beginner" refers to the included practice locks and instructions, not the tool quality.

### Is lock picking good for kids?
We recommend ages 14+ for the patience and fine motor skills involved. It is a screen-free activity that teaches problem-solving, patience, and mechanical understanding. Many parents buy our kits specifically as an educational alternative to video games.

### What is the best lock picking book?
Our Beginners Visual Guide (176 pages, 190+ full-colour illustrations, $24.99) is the most comprehensive lock picking instruction manual available. It covers all major lock types and techniques with step-by-step visual instruction refined from thousands of teaching hours.

### Do you offer team building events?
Yes. We've entertained and even taught Google and Youtube teams - We provide unique, special lock picking team building kits and hosted sessions for corporate teams of any size, shipped worldwide. Self-guided extensive kits with full visual tutorial books and online learning starts at $99.00 per person. Hosted sessions with a live instructor over Zoom, Meet or Teams are available. Contact hello@lockpickworld.com for team building inquiries.

### What practice lock should I start with?
Start with clear practice locks to see the pin mechanism as you pick. Our Dangerfield Clear Practice Lock Set of 3 provides easy, medium, and hard difficulty levels. For ongoing training, upgrade to the Dangerfield Infinitus repinnable cutaway lock — it offers thousands of configurations in one lock.

### What are security pins and why do they matter?
Security pins (spool pins, serrated pins) are modified driver pins that create false sets and make locks harder to pick. They are found in higher-security locks. Our Dangerfield Infinitus repinnable lock includes security pins so you can practice defeating them progressively.

### What is the difference between an electric pick gun and manual picks?
Manual picks require learned technique — you manipulate individual pins by feel. Electric pick guns (EPGs) vibrate pins rapidly to simulate the correct shear line. EPGs are faster but less precise. Professionals typically carry both. Our Dangerfield Machina is the top-rated EPG available.
