THE MOST COMPLETE LOCKSMITHING GUIDE YOU CAN FIND
Whether you want to learn lockpicking or locksmithing -- or want to choose locks that are virtually impossible to defeat -- Bill Phillips' classic The Complete Book of Locks and Locksmithing is perfect. For years the top reference in the field, this book suits everyone from beginners who want to master techniques step by illustrated step, to pros who need an up-to-date, all-inclusive shop manual. This an insider's guide to every facet of the world of mechanical security.
Great for independent or classroom study, the Sixth Edition features:
"It's hard to find technical details on this subject: locksmiths are relatively close-mouthed about the craft of their trade. Laypeople to professionals will thus find this a winning reference: it covers all types of locks and keys from old-fashioned to modern electromagnetic locks and vending machines, providing the basics of locksmithing and different system operations." -- Midwest Book Review, on a previous edition
