Just tap the body of the security tag or use a magnet to pull them to the opposite end and cut the very end off the white or black case. Then use a magnet to pull them out, usually 2 good one's, one is glued in, total 3. Most of mine have a slight lengthwise curve to them. I've never bought real ones. have a great day, also you shouldn't hit a spring with the shim unless somebody pinned it very badly. Great info and video !!!!!

Great video Jason, I’m amazed you were able to do over 15 minutes on shimming but it was all good 😊 I tried the security tags but found them too thin to work with easily. So instead I just keep the regular curved ones in an old chapstick container. Thanks for sharing this info 🙏

I like the Lock Monkey ones. They are cheap so I don’t mind using them up. I have taken those thin strips from the anti-theft devices. I just use scissors instead of a knife. They are too thin for me to shim a lock, but I find many other uses for them.

I've found the shackles on Dollar Store cheapo combination locks can be hard to shim because they often have good tolerances. Probably because the cheap metal lends itself to easy manufacture.
