In today’s video we will look at how we can take a common security tag and extract its contents to be able to use it (along with a key blank) to be able to shim a lock open. This does make it, so you need to have access to the secured side of the door (the inside) because you will need to take the lock out of the door to do this.
After watching this you may be tempted to try to shim the front of the lock. The logic is there, and it is quite concerning. Luckily, this attack has been long thwarted with the addition of a brim round the front of the plug which prevents front shimming.
This is a technique which can help you out in a pinch, but I do recommend purchasing commercial core shims if you plan to do this on any regular interval.
I hope this video helps someone out there and I look forward to speaking with everyone in the comments below!
