Ok, obvously I have too little experience in picking locks; or maybe you have different locks than we in Switzerland.

GP was speaking metaphorically, following your (GGP's) metaphor. For some reason, you abandoned the metaphoric level and misunderstood this to be about real keys and locks.
For many and most physical keyed locks, you can decode the lock with special picks or impressioning tools. It can be pretty time and skill intensive though.
