Losing the key to your padlock is a nightmare that is quite aggravating. This can happen right when you're on the verge of an emergency. On the plus side, even if you don't have a key, there are various products or ways you can use to unlock the padlock. Today, we'll look at some of the best ways to open a padlock without a key. Here are the main points:


1. The Hammer Approach

2. The Wrench Approach


1. The Hammer Approach

Let's start with the most basic way. Your two fingers must be inserted into the shackle loop. Then use your fingers to pry the shackle off. It should be placed against the lock's top. It will eventually assist in getting those locking pins into the proper place. As a result, you'll have an easier time landing the job.

Make sure the shackle doesn't have any extra slack. Otherwise, it will be tough to pry the lock open. You should also avoid gripping the lock's body. Because that's where you'll be hammering.

Now press the lock's side repeatedly with the hammer. Target the side with the shackle's fixed end in particular. Because this is where the pin should go underneath. To pound the lock, use quick and short strikes. The pins will eventually disengage, allowing you to bump open the lock. Use the handle of a screwdriver or any other hard, blunt implement if you don't have a hammer.

Your lock should not be harmed by the hammer method. As a result, you should be able to use it again. Just be careful not to pound too hard, as this could damage the pins. If you don't want to harm the padlock but just want to unlock it without the keys, this is a wonderful way to try.


2. The Wrench Approach

Two wrenches with open ends and a larger head are required for this procedure. To get a decent result, the bigger the better. Also, to work with an even force, make sure both wrenches are the same size.

You'll want to carefully loop wrench ends over each side of the shackles. After you've positioned yourself, aim to get both handles as near to each other as possible. The internal arms of both wrench heads will be butting up against one other as a result of this.

Now you'll want to place the wrench in the vertical shaft centre section of the shackle. If they're too low or too high, there's a chance they'll slip when you apply pressure. Squeeze the handles to make sure they're not shifting, sliding, or losing their grip.

After that, you can exert pressure on the handles. Continue doing so until the shackles are broken in half. You should concentrate on bringing the handles closer to the midline. It will take a lot of strength, so be patient and don't give up in the middle. To choke up the handles with grip and push, use the flat area of your palm. It's preferable to utilizing the tips of your fingers.

Here's a trick to utilize if you have a big lock and a small wrench. Make a shim out of a folded piece of paper or something similar. You may easily slip it between your arms, which will aid in producing the necessary traction.

Simply pick out shattered bits once the shackle has been snapped off. If they don't come out, jiggle or twist them a few times. Because the end might sometimes remain attached to the locking mechanism.
