The Open Organisation of Lockpickers - East Coast

Come join us at Nova Labs for our monthly lockpicking meeting! We meet every third Wednesday at the Nova Labs Fairfax location at 3850 Jermantown Road. Learn about locks, lockpicking, lock modifications, and even lock smithing in our classroom environment. No tools, skills, or knowledge required, but feel free to bring any of those things with you! Our meetings are overseen by one or more locksmiths.

Come learn to pick locks, have a beverage, and learn more about physical security!

No payment, skills, tools, or RSVP required to attend!

Just bring yourself, your fine motor skills, and your willingness to learn!

Our experts will have you picking locks in no time.
