Even though U-locks are designed to be unbreakable, there are several ways to get one open if you’ve lost your key. This is good news if your lock is attached to your bike or another possession that you need unlocked. The easiest way to break a U-lock is by using simple ballpoint pen to jimmy the lock. There are other ways that you can unlock the U-lock that require the use of force, and will actually break the structure of the lock and make it henceforth unusable. For this reason, it’s always best to try to jimmy the lock before actually breaking the U-lock. | Even though U-locks are designed to be unbreakable, there are several ways to get one open if you’ve lost your key.
