Very often in feature films, one has to see how someone famously opens a locked door, simply by shooting its lock. Knowing that scriptwriters and directors are very fond of "lying" in action films, a natural question arises: is it possible to do something similar in real life and still achieve the same result as in the movies?
The answer will change depending on which castle you are talking about. If you shoot the padlock with a bullet of a representative caliber, then it can quite itself be ripped off its hinges. However, it must be said here that many of these locks are perfectly removable with a pry bar, hammer or screwdriver. In addition, shooting at such objects is quite risky. This is because there is a representative probability of a bullet ricochet.
If we are talking about ordinary locks sitting in the body of the door, then a shot at such a lock will most likely do nothing. The bullet will just get stuck in the door or lock. Moreover, it can significantly complicate further discovery. In addition, the probability of an ammunition ricochet from a metal product does not disappear anywhere.

As for the shots at the doors in general, one is actually being done. For this purpose, special services use 12-gauge pump-action shotguns with special ammunition. In addition, in the vast majority of cases, they shoot not at locks, but at door hinges. This makes it much easier and faster to remove the obstacle in its path.

In addition, the employees of the special services have many other "battering" accessories for opening doors. Most often nowadays, ordinary hand rams are used. With their help, strong blows are applied to the door in the area of the lock, which allows you to simply knock out the entire structure and enter the room without much difficulty. In the case of metal doors, law enforcement officers use special saws. Explosive devices with a small charge with a directed action are least often used.
