Bolt Cutters

[HereWeGoAgain]

I need them. Ok. So, I got a lock on the shed. I may have lost the key for real this time. I need that off. My thinking several years ago after my last lock was cut off and my lawn mower stolen was that I would get this lock that could not be broken.

But............now I need to break it. They seem to be in a range of prices. My kid will be back Monday so I'm hoping he can use it. I just need to know what kind to get.

You dont own an angle grinder?

Hell,even a dremel would work.
It'd take a bit longer but it would do the trick.

Fuk it

I would get a hack saw and cut that metal bar

A hacksaw would just slide over the hardened steel.
Ya gotta use a grinder or bolt cutters.

Who buys a super duty impregnable lock then forgets where they put the key?

I'd be looking to cut that thing off with an oxyacetylene torch. Good luck with those bolt cutters and protect your eyes.

I was thinking it might be better to cut though the hasp just for that reason...but even the hasp looks substantial and might be hardened.

Disir...is you watch that video above...being a SMARTKEY system...evidently you can rekey that lock with any kwikset 5 pin key easily at any time.

Buy a rekey kit and reset the lock...then you'll have two keys.

Not cut the lock but cut the metal bar that holds the lock
If that fails
Cut the wood

The hardware the lock is installed on might be hack saw vulenrabl.

Liquid nitrogen and a hammer.

If you lose the key again.

try the wrench method

I saw that a few years back and tried it. You need either unreasonably long wrenches or arms like a professional body builder.

I have a set of 30" Knipex that I am real happy with. Not something I use very often though.....
