Another Suggestion: A item for like the Bounty Hunters, Assassins, mercenaries and vigilantes, they get like a item I dunno, a paper clip? And it has a random chance of about 30-50% of lockpicking a door open.
You get demerits for "Attempted Lockpicking"(which is about 30-75 demerits) if someone see's you witnessing the crime, if you get in and someone see's you witnessing the crime you get about 60-80 demerits?
Your choice really, it was just a suggestion.
