Bumping a Lock. 1  1. Insert the key into the lock. Fit the key into the lock. 2  2. Begin turning the key. Try turning the key in the unlock direction (usually counterclockwise). 3  3. Strike the back of the key with a blunt object.
The technique for making bump keys isnât particularly new; itâs been around for decades, with a hammer used to hit the key and click it into a lockâs pins. With 3D printing, however, such keys can now be made relatively easily. To create the key, Holler and Weyers use a picture of the lock in question.
