Think you and your family are safe and sound when your front and back doors are locked. Well you better think again!
Lock bumping has changed the game of lock security. Nearly every door to every home in every neighborhood can be unlocked or opened in a matter of seconds with virtually no noise via lock bumping. Over 90 percent of all doors in America use a pin tumbler lock which is vulnerable to lock bumping. This locking system is so old and outdated that it was patented during the civil war. Lock bumping as it is now called was first discovered during the 1970’s by a small circle of locksmiths in Denmark. However that was then and this is now. With the advent of the internet it was only a matter of time before the technique of lock bumping would reach America and our doors.There is a solution and to protect yourself and your family against lock bumping you need to update and replace your old pin tumbler locks with new high security locks.
