L.O.C.T. associates, LLC provides specialized instruction in our Surreptitious & Covert Entry Specialist Course to law enforcement, government and military personnel. The training provided by L.O.C.T. Associates, LLC is designed to teach the skills tactics and techniques required to surreptitiously and covertly conduct lock picking, circumvention and/or by-passing in order to enter secure structures, containers and/or property.

This training course greatly benefits law enforcement, government and military personnel, such as: federal agents/Homeland Security personnel, patrol officers, detectives, SWAT & tactical operators, narcotics officers, probation & parole officers, as well as military special forces members, etc. The subtle breaching techniques learned in this course can greatly benefit the following:


Search warrants           SWAT Operations           Fixed surveillance & observation posts       Citizen welfare checks

Probation searches      Arrest warrants              Vehicle entries & searches                             Parole searches


'Sneak & peek' Ops      Patrol calls                        Access to secured yards/areas                    Narcotics Investigations

Citizen lock-outs            Arrest team staging       Protestor lock-out devices                              Hostage rescue team pre-staging


The ability for law enforcement, government and military personnel to enter a secure location and leave undetected, is of paramount importance for sensitive investigations, such as major narcotics trafficking and/or terrorism. Officer safety and/or the element of surprise can also be increased, during tactical operations, by covertly gaining access to areas for SWAT/HRT team staging, surveillance, entry preparation and sniper/observer positioning.


Aside from learning and practicing the skills used to defeat locks, this training also establishes a knowledge-based foundation for the student, which develops expertise. This expertise can be used to assist with investigating/identifying methods, tools and techniques criminals may also be utilizing; as well as identify weaknesses in existing security systems/devices.

Sample Student Comments:

"Awsome class! Most definitely!" - J.C.

" I just attended your class in Torrance, and again would like to thank you on a job well done!" - R.F.

"...very great class! Best I've ever been to! - W/H

"...I attended you training course this week on the 9th and 10th. At the end of the training, you asked us to share if one of us used our new skills shortly after the course. Last night on the 11th, I did! My trainee and I jumped a school fence in search of some vandalism suspects. After detaining three people, we had to get out of the school grounds with the handcuffed suspects. I jumped back over and got my pick set. With a few deputies watching, I was stoked to have picked the Master padlock in about 5 seconds!  Boy, did it make me look good! This saved me from having to cut the school's chain or lock." - C.S.

“…I used my pick set to open the apartment door of a guy with a warrant last Monday. We could hear some real light noise from inside, so I picked the door. We went inside and found him hiding under the bed. Great training! Thank you, again!”
- M.C. 

“The lock picking is going great! That is why I wrote to you guys to tell you how much you rock! Your stuff is right on, and you keep it updated. Having been a trainer for over twenty years, I really could appreciate all of you participating and helping throughout the course. Great job!" - C.J.

"I loved the course! I was exposed to a great number of techniques and got 'hands-on' practice with each." - W/H

"This information is so valuable that a condensed version should be taught at the academy level - without a doubt!" - C.Z.
