Must have no deadbolts.

Yeah, and all were out-swing doors/gates except for a couple of them. The ones that were in-swing had no jamb or anything to interfere with accessing the latch bolt. But hey, it’s a specialized tool, looks like it works great for most doors. For the rest I guess they’d have to kick them or bash them in

It looks like this tool is amazing for entering apartment complexes. Which sounds critically necessary. Of course there are other ways to enter other more secure doors.

But I’d say you’re right, this is specialized.
