The Truth About Lock Bumping and a Bump-Proof Solution

Lock picking is nothing new, but now criminals are using
something called a bump key. This key can be made in just a few
minutes with no special tools, and they can be made from any common
key. Once a bump key is obtained, it will open almost any lock that
the key can physically slide into. In America, almost all the locks
sold in hardware stores can be opened with just two different bump
keys. The information on how to make them, and the sale of them
appear all over the internet, and as a result the problem affects
locks all over the world. This is why the bump key threat is a
growing problem to millions of homes and businesses in America and
worldwide.
The National Crime Prevention Council is in the process of
issuing its first release about bumping. It states "If your home is
protected with an ordinary lock, it may not do you much good."

bumping, by far, is installing a high security lock. Mul-T-Lock,
