Why Use a Vice for Lockpicking?

When lockpicking locks, stability is crucial. A professional vice provides a firm grip, allowing you to keep both hands free for precise work. This significantly increases your chances of success, especially with complex locks that require precision work.

With a good vice, you prevent vibrations or movements, enabling you to practice more effectively and achieve better results.

Types of Vices and Their Applications

Vices come in various sizes and designs.

A small vice is ideal for securely holding cylinder locks and practice locks. These compact variants are perfect for home use, hobbyists, and lockpickers who practice regularly.

A larger and sturdier vice, often referred to as a professional vice, is used for heavy-duty applications such as holding lock housings or larger objects during repairs.

The right choice depends on your specific needs. For beginner lockpickers and DIY enthusiasts, we recommend a compact variant, while experienced professionals may prefer a heavier, more professional model.

What to Consider When Buying a Vice?

When purchasing a vice, pay attention to the following features:

• Compact vices are easy to move; heavier variants offer maximum stability.
• Cast iron vices are durable and strong, ideal for intensive use.
• The jaw width determines which objects you can hold comfortably.
• With a rotating head, you can work flexibly from different angles, a great advantage in lockpicking.
