A spring latch with a little flex in the frame can be loided, and that is exactly what this shim is shaped to do. It is a credit-card-sized stainless steel card that lives in your wallet until a latched door asks the right question. Latch shimmingLoids spring latches Stainless cardThin, springy, flat Wallet carryCredit-card footprint True EDCAlways on you What it is A loiding card built for the job, not a borrowed bank card Loiding, also called shimming or carding, is the old trick of sliding a thin, springy card past the strike plate to push a spring latch back into the door. People have tried it for years with a flexed bank card. The trouble is a real bank card is too soft, too thick at the wrong moment, and folds the second you put any work into it. This Lokko card fixes that. It is cut from thin stainless steel so it stays flat, flexes without creasing, and slides into the gap between door and frame the way the technique wants. The job it does It works the angled face of a spring latch. You slide it into the door gap, then lever the latch back against its spring until the bolt clears the strike and the door swings. Where it shines Spring-latch doors with a bit of frame play: inner office doors, store rooms, sheds, and older domestic latches that were never set up to resist a card. The shaped edge That curved sweep and the stepped notch are not decoration. They give you an edge to hook and ramp the latch instead of skating off a flat card. How you use it Three moves, then the door opens Read the door Find the latch side and feel for the gap between door and frame. Loiding wants a spring latch you can reach, not a thrown deadbolt. Slip the card in Slide the steel above or beside the latch and angle the curved edge onto the sloped face of the bolt. Lever it back Press the latch back against its spring while you ease the door. As the bolt clears the strike, the door gives. Keep it honest: loiding only works on a plain spring latch. A door with a working deadlatch, that little secondary plunger that locks the main bolt when the door is shut, is built specifically to defeat a card and it will not loid. For a deadlatched or deadbolted door the route is pin-tumbler work or a different bypass, not this shim. Treat this as a fast, low-cost answer for the many doors that still run a basic latch. See the shape Thin steel beats a flexed bank card The whole point of a purpose-made card is feedback and durability. The stainless stays rigid enough to drive a latch yet springs flat again instead of creasing like plastic. The profile gives you a leading edge to catch the bolt and a longer body to lever against the frame. It is slim enough to ride in a card slot or your wallet, so it travels as part of your everyday carry rather than living in a tool roll you left at home. When a latched door turns up, the tool is already on you. Build the bypass kit One card opens a lot. A small bypass set opens more. Bypass work rewards a little variety. Different latches, frame gaps, and door weights respond to different shapes, so most people grow this single card into a tiny kit they can reach for by feel. If you fancy a second wallet-format option, the Pocket Shove-It tool rides alongside it for a slightly different reach. Mica Latch Opening Shims A set of flexible shims in different widths and curves. The natural next step when one card shape will not reach a particular latch. KLOM Air Pump U-Wedge Pumps a controlled gap between door and frame so you have room to work the card. The wedge makes space, the shim does the loiding. Details What to know before you buy Brand Lokko Tool type Credit-card door latch shim (loiding / carding bypass tool) Material Thin stainless steel, flat and springy Size and carry Credit-card footprint, slim enough for a wallet or card slot. Light at about 10 g. True EDC. Profile Shaped card with a curved leading edge and stepped notch for hooking and ramping a latch Best on Spring-latch doors with a reachable frame gap Not for Working deadlatches and thrown deadbolts. For those, choose pin-tumbler tools or another bypass. The curved cut-out and side notch are the working edges that drive a spring latch. The real reason to carry this: a wallet-thin tool that turns a basic latched door into a few seconds of work, without ever reaching for a pick. Use entry tools responsibly, only on locks you own or have permission to work on, and check your local laws before you buy. FAQ Questions buyers usually ask What does this open? Spring-latch doors. That is the angled latch bolt that retracts when you turn the handle. If the door has a working deadlatch or a thrown deadbolt, loiding will not move it, so save this for the many doors that still run a plain latch. How is it better than just using my bank card? A bank card is too soft and tends to crease or fold mid-attempt. This is thin stainless steel, so it stays flat, flexes without folding, and is shaped with a leading edge that catches the latch instead of skating off. Is it approachable if I am new to bypass work? Yes. Loiding is one of the most beginner-friendly bypass techniques because the motion is simple: feel the gap, angle the edge onto the latch, lever it back. Practise on a spring-latch door you own or a training setup first and you will feel exactly what the card is doing. Will it fit in my wallet? It has a credit-card footprint and rides in a card slot, so it travels as part of your everyday carry rather than a tool roll. That is the whole idea: the tool is on you when a latched door turns up. What should I pair it with? Two companions cover most situations. The Mica latch shims add more widths and curves for awkward latches, and the KLOM air wedge opens a working gap so the card has room to slide in. Put a real loiding card in your wallet Skip the soft, foldable bank card. This slim stainless shim is shaped for spring latches, lives in a card slot, and is ready the moment a latched door turns up. Pair it with a wider shim set and a wedge as your bypass habit grows. Show more
