Code lock hacking and lockpicking for bases that have been abandoned for more than a week.

I was looking for some easy to raid bases the other day since cupboard decay was added and actually stumbled upon quite a few bases with open roofs that led right to the loot room or simply had a wooden wall or 2 that could be burned down, a little more than 15% actually had loot left. I also happened upon a few bases that have already had their cupboards decayed but were locked up tight. As a solo player on a vanilla server, blowing into an abandoned solo base with c4 or rockets is just not worth it so here is where my suggestion comes in. Bases without cupboard that have been abandoned for a full week should allow players with "hacking and lock picking kits" to remove the locks on doors (this should take a while like 5-10min per door, it saves resources but you have to stay undefended near the door without moving)
Any Critique on how to make this better or why this would not work is warmly welcomed.
Why not!? This is actually a quite good idea. On the other hand; groups are thus more likely to do it much faster, because more people. They are protected by their clan mates, so it will give them a much easier raid, which is unfair to the solo players I guess.
But for sure it will help, because maybe you can take over someone's base, when it is abandoned. And that is in my opinion, very valuable.
Sounds good - locks could have some sort of decay on them, after a week of no use they become compromised and are hackable. If the decay goes all the way down to 0, it unlocks.
