Help / FAQ

1. Who can order?

Principally, every responsible person can order our products for legal purposes.

There are no legal restrictions on the sale/purchase of locksmith tools in Germany. The only precondition is that the customer must be 18 years of age or above.

If you order from another country please contact your local authorities. The corresponding national laws apply.

Given the nature of the products, Multipick decided to take some security measures, though, in order to avoid the sale of “dangerous“ tools to individuals with questionable intentions.

We delivery our tools to foreign countries without investigating the local legal situation. The customer is fully responsible for verifying whether his purchase/import of our tools is legal according to the corresponding national law. If you have any questions, please contact our customer service.

 

Manipulative, non-destructive tools as well as literature videos and other products are freely available. Multipick reserves the right to decline orders without mentioning motives. If the declined order has already been paid for, the paid amount will be refunded without substractions.

27. How is it that in rare cases ELITE products can be delayed?

AVAILABILITY of MULTIPICK ELITE PICKSETS and MULTIPICK KRONOS

All products from the MULTIPICK MANUFACTURE (each tool is manufactured and checked multiple times by hand with utmost care), especially our ELITE products such as picks, picksets and our KRONOS, meet our highest quality standards. Hence it goes without saying that this highly ambitious goal can influence our production capacities. As a result, the high demand from our customers can more or less strongly influence the availability of this group of tools in particular and lead to delivery delays.

Our MULTIPICK products are officially available from us or from our distributors.
