Lock bumping has been around since the 70’s in Denmark. It has only come to the lime light with the advent of the internet in the United States.

In the Unites States the lock bumping key is considered a burglary tool in most states. However it seems that only California has listed the bump key in one of it’s penal codes directly. It will probablly not be long before the rest of the states pass a code which list the lock bumping key directly.

Some of the big lock manufactures that have designed and now produce a bump resistant lock include Medeco, Schlage, Kwikset, BiLock and Master. These companies all now advertise either a bump resistant or bump proof lock. The price range of the new locks ranges from around $50 up to $200. However you can probably find them on sale on one of the many sites selling bump proof locks.

One quick and easy way to help prevent the bump key from working in your locks is to spray a lock lubricant or WD40 into the key slot. This tends to make the pins and springs not stick when the bump key is forced or bumped into the key hole.

Lock Bumping Keys

Look at the lock bumping key picture below and you will see the difference between your normal house key and a lock bumping key. The lock bumping key as you can see has a distinct look to it. The key is filed down to create little metal spikes which look like shark teeth on the key. When the lock bumping key is whacked or hit by the lock bumping hammer it then pushes up all the pins at the same time for a split second. When pressure is applied for this split second all the pins are above the tumbler which enables the tumbler to then turn. The hitting or banging of the key with a lock bumping hammer is where the term “lock bumping” comes from.

Lock Bumping History

In the 1970’s, locksmiths in Denmark shared a technique for knocking or bumping on a lock cylinder while applying slight pressure to the back of the lock plug. When the pins would jump inside the lock cylinder, the plug would be able to slide out freely and disassemble the lock quickly. The use of a lock bumping key was not introduced until some time later and was first recognized as a potential lock security issue around 2002-2003 in Europe. Now lock bumping and lock bumping keys are sweeping the internet and America.

Lock Bumping Key

Lock bumping keys are a new threat to the security of conventional mechanical locks. Lock bumping keys are easy to make and can be created very quickly. With a lock bumping key it will take only 1 minute or less for intruders to turn the lock and open the doors to your house or business via the lock bumping keys.
