You need bobby pins to pick locks, and you will use the analog sticks to rotate the bobby pin around the lock, then twist it until the lock is open. The goal is to find the sweet spot that will allow the lock to turn all the way. The higher the skill level on the lock, the smaller this sweet spot will be.
