WARNING: $3 "Universal Key" Will Open Your Front Door

Lock pick sets are a controlled product only sold to licensed locksmiths; however, the laws have NOT caught up with Bump Keys. I'm asking legislators in all 50 states to update their laws to specifically address bump keys but I need your support so they will make it a priority. I will take care of the hard work, I just need you to sign the petition and spread the word.

Let me give you a quick overview of bump keys in case this is new to you. A bump key is a normal house key that fits your lock but has a special series of cuts. If you put the key in the lock and tap it with a screwdriver while turning then the lock will open. Basically, the tap on the key bumps the pins in the lock exposing a split second when everything lines up and the lock will open. For a better understanding and to see it in action, watch one of the TV news clips below.

Bump keys work on deadbolt and doorknob locks. They are cheap and easy to obtain. They are so simple to use even children can master this new break-in technique as you will see in the TV news clips below.

We want to STOP the sale of these keys. Watch the videos below to see what all the fuss is about. Then SIGN OUR ONLINE PETITION to crack down on the widespread buying and selling of these keys.
 

Our Mission

Our mission is very straight forward as follows:
  • Promote awareness of this problem. Lock bumping is already common knowledge among criminals. Understanding and preventing it should be common knowledge among potential victims.
  • Gather petition signatures in an effort to ban bump keys. If enough people show their concern then as a group we will get the attention of politicians and legislatures. Bump keys must be clearly classifieds as illegal and new and existing laws must be enforced.
  • Enlist your help spreading the word. If you tell your friends and they in turn tell theirs then we can really make a difference. Your help spreading the word is critical to the success of this petition.
  • Provide solution ideas that you can use immediately. There are many free or low cost steps that you can take to lower your risk.
