Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: What set should I get as someone new?
A: We recommend a full handle set over the smaller "Folding Pocket Set" or "Concealable" styles for someone just learning the basics. A single pick or two and a tension turner are all you need to get started! That runs about 7 dollars or so. Let us know it's your first time and we'll see if there are any misfit tools we can throw in the order for free. :)
Avoid gimmicky and/or expensive tools at first when jumping into a new hobby. We do have the bigger sets when you feel like expanding your skillset, but we would rather you get what you need than take advantage of anyone starting out in lock picking.
Q: Can I call or email and talk to an actual person and sort out what I want?
A: Absolutely! Email is the best form of reaching us in the shop, it gets loud sometimes when making the tools. Leave a name and number and one of us will be happy to anwer your questions. sales@lockpicktools.com
Q: Can I get a Folding Pocket Pick Set (7P or 8) with different picks than the standard picks that they come set-up with?
A: Yes! We are able to custom make your folding pocket pick set with any picks you want as long as they add up to the same amount (7 picks for the 7P and 8 picks for the 8). We can do this at no extra charge. In the comment section when you are checking out, just make sure you list the picks you want using their profile number.

Q: Can I get a pick set with different profiles than the standard picks that they come set-up with?
A: Doesn't hurt to ask. If it is a tool we have in stock matching in price, we'll gladly substitute for you. Everyone has their preference, and one persons prize pick is another persons trash.
