you shouldnt practice on important locks, when we were teenages we played around with lockpicking, we practiced on the same lock for weeks, by the end the lock was so worn out you could open it with any key and a little shaking

Wut lol. Locks are made to take 100,000 cycles or more and pics are not as damaging as the key itself

I mean if you're raping the lock with a metal pick you might scratch up a driver pin but you wont change its length so the key would still work.

Have definitely seen locks worn by picks. Steel picks rubbing on brass is going to do something vs a key made of brass that actually has a little lead In it for smooth cutting.
Not going to happen instantly but have you ever seen an electric pick gun you can see the brass particles flying out of the key way.
Also not destroyed but have seen locks stop working from dislodged master pins from over vigorous picking.

THe only reason you did that is because other lock picks have been doing it and you need a new lock.
One does not become a professional lockpick overnight

You guys are still making me paranoid. Do I need motion detectors and cameras and shit facing all my locks? Trap doors? Seriously what would it take to actually deter this type of behavior? Perhaps a draw bridge?
-------------------- Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

Cameras would help. but more secret holdings, and trapdoors to dungeons with the secret government LSD project.
