Multipick tools are well thought out and extremely durable when used correctly.
A GOD AMONG LOCKPICKING TOOLS
Most tools are designed for just one specific type of lock, requiring professionals to carry several tools to meet the varied demands of their customers. With the Multipick ARES opening system, you have the flexibility to configure a single tool for opening both disc detainer locks and dimple cylinders—customized to suit your individual needs. Crafted from high-grade aluminium with an anodised finish and a special steel alloy, ARES is built with the same premium materials used across all our professional tools.
MODULAR DESIGN – EXPANDABLE AND FUTURE-READY
The base module provides the foundation for a fully modular system. We are continuously developing new extensions—for example, special attachments for safe openings or new versions for dimple cylinders. Many of these expansions are already available in our shop.
WHY USE MANY TOOLS WHEN ONE IS ENOUGH?
We offer a variety of sets and individual components for efficient, time-saving, and cost-effective opening of dimple cylinders and disc detainer locks. Thanks to its modular design, the ARES system delivers wide-ranging opening capabilities. It keeps you flexible at the door, allowing you to adapt quickly to different lock types.
MADE IN GERMANY, MADE IN BONN
The Multipick ARES opening system is manufactured exclusively in small-scale, artisan production at our facility in Bonn. We take pride in our commitment to local manufacturing and the high standards we uphold across all our tools. There’s a reason we say: Made in Germany. Made in Bonn.

ARES - Disc detainer lock opener
Disc detainer locks are mainly padlocks and bicycle locks. The area of deployment is broad and can be found all over the world. With the ARES from Multipick and a little practice, you will be able to open almost any disc detainer lock. Furthermore, we offer common scales for Abus and Abloy. The difference is mainly in the graduation of 2mm (Abus, Abloy) and 1.6mm (Abloy). The scales are guides to make it easier to find the positions of the individual discs. The graduations already mentioned are the most widely used on the market. Of course, you can also use the scales for any other disc detainer lock. However, the graduation can then only be used as a reference. With the Multipick ARES Opening System, you have all the options to build the right tool for opening disc detainer locks. With this set you will be able to open even tough locks. The basic module offers you the possibility to modularly expand your system. Our ARES is made of high-quality aluminium with an anodised coating and a special steel alloy, as used in all our products.

Developed over an extended period, the ARES system combines intelligent design with long-term expandability, ensuring it remains future-proof for evolving lock technologies. Despite its refined appearance, ARES is a powerhouse of precision—cleverly engineered with fine scale markings that allow for accurate work, even in confined or complex environments.
