Description
Padlock shims are consumable bypass tools used to defeat spring-latch padlocks by inserting the shim alongside the shackle and rotating it to depress the locking latch. Their thin profile allows them to slip into many common padlock designs where tolerances permit.
Application
A practical addition to any physical testing kit, shims are intended for controlled access work, training, and security research where non-destructive entry techniques are required.
Key Features
- Useful for evaluating susceptible padlock designs
- Supports authorised training and assessment
- Compact and easy to carry in field kits
- Suitable for locksmiths and physical security practitioners
- Helps demonstrate the importance of improved lock selection
Safety Note
Use only on locks you own or are explicitly authorised to assess. Not all padlocks are susceptible, and destructive force should be avoided.
