This is exactly the same set found here on dx except it is shipped from inside Australia so you should expect to get it much sooner.

The set is adequate to begin playing around with lock picking as a hobby. The tension tool that comes with it is a bit useless so create one from a bobby pin as described here to give yourself a fighting chance.

If you want to learn how to pick a lock consult these articles:

As for the legality, it is legal to own and even carry around lock picks inside Australia but please don't test this out in front of an officer, keep these at home.

Shipping is from Sydney, Australia and will take around 2 to 4 days from ordering to arrive at your door.

Update Monday the 22nd of September, 2014

I have shipped your orders and everyone should receive their orders within 3 days. Good news also for people who took advantage of the hitchhiker special, they may have to only wait 2 weeks instead of 6.

    I recommend everyone buy one of these and store them in the car. had to pay $80 for 7 minutes work the other day because I locked on my keys inside the unit!

      • msmhw on 19/09/2014 - 18:38

        lool then call locksmith!
        I was smart enough to take the car keys but not the door!

        may be store them somewhere you think you will be able to access? friend house? buy two one store it in your house the other one in friend house. the problem is if you two locked on your keys in the same time loool.

          Why not then just store a spare key? Rather then have to either learn how to lock pick and or break your own lock.

        • WazzaP on 19/09/2014 - 22:08

          Considering how few people know how to pick locks, leave the lock picks somewhere accessible near your home - if someone is searching for a key and comes across lock picks instead they're not likely to know how to use them (and hey, if a thief knows how to pick locks they probably have their own lock picks anyway). More secure than leaving a key somewhere.

        • UncommonName on 19/09/2014 - 23:44

          you can buy a door from bunnings and a $10 cylinder lock and this lockpick kit and please yourself in your own home and somehow that is 'illegal'???

      • dosada on 19/09/2014 - 18:41

        How has the price got to do with anything? Real professionals do that with nearly no tools in no time

        • Utopian on 20/09/2014 - 10:30

          You've missed the point entirely. His locks are useless. Effectively, anyone can get in, with anything available.

      • Risser on 19/09/2014 - 21:10

        2 bobby pins and a few youtube videos got into my front door. Scary :(

      • Orte on 19/09/2014 - 21:37

        Not to make you paranoid, but common house locks (whose keys have "teeth" on one side) are one of the easiest types of locks to pick. The kind that is the first one every curious kid can learn to open, with common household items, by watching YouTube videos. Better build quality can increase the challenge for beginners to a small degree, but anyone trying to open your door with a lockpick will have had plenty of practice.

        • Utopian on 20/09/2014 - 10:35

          A friend showed me how to open combination bike/luggage locks. I like having a dabble at home sometimes, a puzzle. Mainly works with loose/crappy ones though.

    • INFIDEL on 19/09/2014 - 18:45

      Why not keep a spare key in car, store hidden elsewhere, or with trusted friend?

      Easier than learning new skill that may never be needed. I seem to remember my key losing days were connected with drinking, and lock picking when drunk would be difficult.

      • msmhw on 19/09/2014 - 18:53

        I had one in the car but I had to use it for some reasons and I forgot to return it in the car :(

      • jong on 19/09/2014 - 20:36

        Having burglary tools with you when you're out and about is considered "going equipped". Last time I looked at the NSW Crimes Act the burden of proof was on the defendant - that is, the cops only had to prove that you had them on you, they did not have to prove intent.

        (I say this as someone who is pro-locksport, and considers a house-brick a more efficient means of breaking-and-entering than the pick set on offer)

        • eug on 19/09/2014 - 21:03

          Is it ok to carry a screwdriver around?
          I think burglars are more likely to use a screwdriver than a lockpick. :)

        • Associatedlockpick @ Lock Picks Australia on 19/09/2014 - 21:47

          Thanks, will check this out and update the legal section of my site with what I find out.

        • [Deactivated] on 20/09/2014 - 10:08
          +1

          Well the last time you checked you must have realised that the NSW Crimes Act doesn't have a 'going equipped for stealing' section within the Crimes Act 1900 (NSW).

          The section you are linking is found in Crimes Act 1958 (VIC)…and you still get it all wrong.

          I don't think you actually understand the burden of proof and onus concept. The police only have an evidentiary burden in that you had the item on you, they have a legal burden to prove intent as they are the ones bringing the action against you. The only time the Onus of proof shifts (re: intention) the defendants from evidentiary to legal standard is generally in drug cases and pleading insanity as a complete defence. So in your situation, intent is easily going to be shut down when you look at the law found in R v Moloney…where having a lock pit kit on you is "…not merely evidence from which such intention may be inferred"…

          They would only charge you with this if they actually found you in the process of stealing or had additional evidence supporting it because it would never stand up in court. Ever. Because if it did, then people could get done for having socks in their pockets. Because the defendant planned to use them as gloves to go steal with…

        Hi rep, I've been wanting to buy a practice lock for the past few months now but I'm not really sure which to get. Besides the brand, what is the difference between the Southord and Brockhage locks? Which one is better for learning?

        • Alsoar on 20/09/2014 - 15:45

          I wouldn't be surprised if they were both manufactured on the same line and just have different labels (which i believe was the case over at Pickpals).

          Personally, i would recommend the repinning practice locks, either the Ultimate Practice Lock http://learnlockpicking.com or Mr Wizard's Super Max 7 pin Practice lock http://www.lockpicking101.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=57733 so you can slowly work your way up from single pins to more driver pins or security pins, as well as mix-n-matching pins so don't get too comfortable with how all the pins are set.

          I purchased the latter for $77USD shipped (took a week to arrive). The quality's good, the bloke was very helpful and reputable on the lockpicking101 forums.

          The 15 piece set is quite a deal, the same from Southord is ~$60USD shipped.

        • Associatedlockpick @ Lock Picks Australia on 20/09/2014 - 21:24

          I concur

        • leonheart1 on 21/09/2014 - 23:55

          @Alsoar:
          Thanks for the reply but would it be easy to learn without being able to see the pins? The practice locks in your links don't look like cut aways nor are they transparent.

        • Associatedlockpick @ Lock Picks Australia on 22/09/2014 - 13:22

          You don't have to see the pins to be able to learn. To be honest a cheap $5 - $10 large padlock from a bargain shop will be an ideal place to start.

      • UFO on 20/09/2014 - 20:11

        Hey Rep, not to look a gifthorse in the mouth… but if I buy both of them (the locks and picks above with 6 week wait), can you give me a better price on postage?

        Also, the practice set has two locks. As a complete nube, are these different lock types or something?

        Thanks again for posting.

        • Associatedlockpick @ Lock Picks Australia on 20/09/2014 - 21:19
