Bump Proof Lock - The Importance Of Protecting Your Family

Rex Freiberger

You may believe that your family is adequately protected when all the doors in your home are locked. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. The greatest danger in the world of lock security is lock bumping. Bump keys allow every door in your entire neighborhood to be unlocked or even opened almost soundlessly in less than a minute. Pin tumbler locks that are used by many people in America are powerless against lock bumping.

Let's face it, when it comes to home security most of us are still living in the Stone Age. Things such as the bunk keys have been around for at least half a decade and still present a danger to our privacy and well being. Thankfully, there have been a few advancements in lock design that have allowed us to now be able to get a bump proof lock installed in our homes. These locks might be called high security lock but quiet honestly they are still a thing of the past when you consider the things affluent people can buy.

A new danger to the security of conventional mechanical locks is lock bumping keys. It's easy to make a lock bumping key and they can be made very quickly. It will only take a few seconds to turn the lock and open the doors to your residence or company by means of the lock bumping keys for the intruders.

The good news is that it is not necessary to spend hundreds of dollars to obtain a bump proof lock. Any qualified professional should be able to take a standard lock and turn it into a bump proof lock for about the same cost as a couple of spare keys. This is possible because of a new commercial product specifically designed to make such nefarious schemes impossible.

There are bump keys that will open all locks. A bump key is like a normal key filed down to the very lowest level in all channels. Such a key will open any pin tumbler lock in a few seconds thus allowing the burglar entrance into your home.

It is just common sense that the more a lock costs, it is probably harder to open. A higher priced lock will be easier turned after a bump as they are made of hardened steel, and with accuracy a must when they are machined, they will hold up during a bump. For bump key prevention, you would be better off purchasing a less expensive lock for less resistance to a knock.
