Hi/lo rakes

Sparrows Rook & Knight Rakes for stubborn hi/lo locks

An addition to the popular King and Queen rakes, the Rook and Knight take on locks with a large variation between high and low pins. That big difference often causes oversetting during single-pin picking, and these rakes are shaped to move past it quickly and effectively.

Why buy this

Buy this when oversetting keeps stopping you

When pins differ a lot in height, setting one can overset the next and ruin the attempt. The Rook and Knight profiles ride those swings more smoothly, so you clear locks that defeat a standard rake or careful single-pin work.

Big swing pinning

Made for large high-to-low differences.

Anti-overset

Moves past the pin that usually oversets.

Pairs with King/Queen

Extends the same hi/lo approach.

Use route

Rake the swings in a try-out style

Use light tension and a try-out raking motion so the profile rides the high and low pins, then finish with a hook if needed. Practise on locks you own or may lawfully open.

  • Use on suitable locks with large hi/lo swings.
  • Keep tension light to avoid oversetting.
  • Pair with the King and Queen rakes.

Helpful next step: the King and Queen rakes.
