Oak City Lock Sport Meetup
Sunday, May 24, 2026
3 p.m.
Free
RSVP here

Oak City Locksport is the original Raleigh area lockpicking group, founded in 2010. Meeting once a month to teach the community how to pick locks and share interesting physical security projects.

Focused on fun and education! It’s useful to learn about the relative security (or insecurity) of the locks used in everyday life. More informed and educated consumers can make better choices regarding what they purchase to protect themselves and their families.

Always welcoming newcomers to this hobby and are more than willing to teach the basics to get you started. There are no startup costs or membership fees since we have “community” locks and picks, but most people end up buying their own materials once they’re hooked! Most people pick up this hobby because locks are like little metal puzzles.
