If i knew what it was, i may be able to help, is the clasp like a paddle lock? You can get into those with a soda can and some clips.

Other than that, if it uses a key, i can link you to how to build a autopick for like $7. works on most key locks.

Cut a peice of aluminium such as this, fold the underside up, as the up arrows show, the rest goes around the shank of the lock side. Push down into the lock to unclasp the lock.

Can's work. just cut to shape.

Make sure the "hump" is enough to get into the lock portion of it.

Oh, the "hump" goes on the inside of the "U" shape, on the side where the lock does not pivot.

All it does is unclasp the lock mech.
