Buy this when the gap is too small for a rigid tool
Mica is flexible enough to work through narrow gaps while staying strong enough for controlled latch work. It is a classic locksmith route for suitable spring-latch situations.
Five shims
Keep multiple shims ready for different gaps and wear.
Flexible material
Mica can slide where rigid tools struggle.
Latch-focused
Built around suitable spring-latch bypass work.

Work the gap, then the latch
Confirm the door and latch setup, guide the shim through the gap, then work down to the latch with gentle control. Use wedges when the gap needs support.
- Use only for authorised latch-bypass work.
- Confirm a suitable spring-latch door first.
- Pair with wedges when the gap needs control.
