September 16, 2003 -- How many locksmiths does it take to break into their own locked van?
Three.
How long does it take?
An hour.
The key to understanding this crazy caper (left) is that three clueless klutzes who work for Affordable Locksmith in Brooklyn recently locked themselves out of their van.
And they did so on Nevins Street in downtown Brooklyn - leaving passers-by in stitches.
Realizing they were locked out, the luckless locksmiths fell to work.
Using a screwdriver, they tried to pry open a door so they could get a coat hanger inside. That, in turn, set off the alarm.
"They looked so embarrassed," said Jonathan Hall, who witnessed the comedic scene.
Hall photographed the sorry smiths and then went to get the film developed. When he got back, they were still at it.
When a reporter called Affordable Locksmith for comment, the company showed a similar lack of finesse. A man claiming to be the manager threatened to sue The Post. "I'll f- - - you up," he said.
