Lock Bumping

by Teresa Boardman, on 20 February 2007

I am seeing this all over the internet and am publishing it as a public service message.  Lock bumping has become the latest craze for person desiring unauthorized entry into homes.   

See:  The Lockdown: locked but not secure from the most excellent Engadget blog, and read more about lock bumping in this wikipedia article.

  1. When I saw the title “lock bumping”, I assumed it was about bumping an interest rate lock back a few days.

    This is a good public service, thank you.

    I use a big dog, it’s better than a lock. An alarm would be good too.
