ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to lock picking and decoding tools and a method of using the same. The lock decoding tools comprise a torquing tool, a picking tool, and decoding tools. The method comprises using the torquing tool to bias the locking bar out of a notch in the inner wall of the cylinder housing, picking the tumblers using the picking tool, turning the cylinder lock slightly so as to permit the torquing tool to be removed, turning the lock cylinder to the "ON" position, and decoding the cylinder lock using the decoding tools.
