What Are Bump Key Dampeners?

Dampeners are designed for bump keys. These items protect said keys from the direct force. Acting as a shock absorber for whacking or “bumping,” these dampeners can take a hit.

Lockpickers may hit it right the first time, but being able to open a lock through a bump key and its dampener is done through trial and error. It takes an average of 20 strikes to “successfully bump” a lock. 

How Do Bump Keys Work?

What makes a pin tumbler lock unique is that this lock uses pins of different lengths. In this lock, the key pin and driver pin is in a single pinhole. When unlocking, the pins must create a “shear line.” 

This is where these tools work. The lock bumper applies a “bump” to force the key deeper into the lock, creating a “shear line.” This allows the lock picker to turn the core, opening the lock.

A dampener and its bump key should be durable. In opening pin tumbler locks, different forces are applied to the bump key. Locks are generally unique, as are the keys they come with. For this reason, lockpickers need to be more skilled when using this set.

Who Uses Bump Keys?

First responders, security professionals, and professional locksmiths are hired by companies or homeowners to open locks. Most companies secure confidential information in specially-made file cabinets, which may require the services of a professional locksmith. A bump key and its dampener are vital tools every professional lock picker should have. 

Is Your Home Vulnerable?

As a homeowner, you don’t want your home being invaded by people with not-so-good intentions. Some homeowners buy bump keys to check for the security of their locks at home. Your locks may not be as secure as you thought. A single bump key attack can divulge you of your expensive house items.

Is Using a Bump Key Detectable?

The use of bump keys is more often than not detectable. Depending on the lock and the force applied by the lockpicker, using bump keys can lead to permanent damage.
