Yeah I think the paranoia factor is getting a little high here in this thread. You live in an apartment, he lives in a rental house. Most likely the landlords or owners of both places just chose the cheaper of the available locks and it's nowhere near as much of a coincidence as you think.

That's probably the case.

Happened here, too.
Fact is locks wear down. When they are worn down they become more forgiving to whats acceptable.
Locks are by no means secure anyway. For every lock there is a pick or other method of entry this always has and probably always will be the case.

I didnt read through this whole thread, so forgive me if someone has already pointed out that 95% of locks are bullshit. I can open almost any regular house lock with a Bump key . and 99 % with a good lock pick set. If you can figure out how to post on this message board you can prolly do the same thing i can.
I realized how easy this shit was when i was vandelizing this kids house in highshool. He was a major bitch and i was building a giant penis out of snow on his front yard. ... i lost my car keys while being stoned and building a triumphant vainy motherfucker. I riped out a yard orniment (santa) with a wire stand and was able to jimmy my car lock and crack the ignition with absolutly no knowladge except seeing a few movies. It took me less than 10 minutes. Saftey is an illusion. Most doors can be kicked in too!

Did you have to tell people about bump keys? Too many people know this shit already.
You're right, with a bump key you can just kinda walk in so swiftly that people think you got a real key.

home depot has boxes of 'keyed alike' lock sets, you grab how ever many you need and another dozen or more remain behind all with the same key, it's not uncommon

LOL ever hear of a "bump key"?
no one needs an exact copy, just a key that is cut to have all the peaks for that particular lock brand... then all the person has to do is insert the key and "bump" it to hit the tumblers and unlock the door.

Im not promoting home invasion, any one with enough balls is already breaking windows or busting in doors. WIth knowing weaknesses that are present in most peoples houses, they can think about ways to reduce threats such as barring unused doors from the inside and using specialy keyed locks / deadbolts as well as chain devices operated from the inside. Go ahead and use ur bump key on my place, the cops will be here in 90 seconds
