A curated awesome-list of guides, books, tools, events, communities, and research covering the security and compromise of locks, safes, and keys. It is a reference index of external resources rather than software itself, aimed at locksport hobbyists, locksmiths, and physical penetration testers.

Use cases

• find lockpicking learning resources and guides
• learn lockpicking as a hobby
• research physical entry techniques for penetration testing
• discover locksport competitions and communities
• find books on locksmithing and lock security
• study novel lock attack techniques and research

When to choose

• You want a single curated index of lockpicking guides, books, tools, and events instead of searching scattered sources
• You are a physical security professional or red teamer building a reading list on non-destructive entry
• You are getting into locksport and want vetted communities, contests, and beginner material

When to avoid

• You need runnable software, a library, or a tool - this is a link collection with no code
• You are looking for digital or cybersecurity resources rather than physical security topics
• You require frequently updated content, since the last release dates to mid-2022
