Doors:
You'll also encounter doors on your travels. These can be used to increase lockpicking skill, but be aware that they all have long cooldown timers on them, i.e. you will only be able to gain a skill point from them every twenty-plus minutes.
Not quite right.
There are actions which you can conduct which will reset the timers on doors. Pickpocketing NPC is one of those actions.
Example: You can level LP on Scarlett Monastery doors leading to Cathedral/Armory, from lvl 175 lockpicking. You open both doors, enter any instance, pickpocket a few NPCs there (taking about a minute) and go back to doors - you WILL gain skill again on both doors.
Pretty similar with BRD locks but there you need to reset the instance in order to make the doors locked again.
Also:
Badlands - Skill 200 to 275 - Angor Fortress
Is wrong. Supposed to be 150 to 225 (and the 175 to 225 locker is only 1).
Stonetalon Mountains - Skill 115 to 190 - Windershear Crag
Is wrong as well. Supposed to be Windshear Crag - 70 to 145 & Windshear Mine 110 to 185.
Similarly Hillsbrad Foothills - Skill 95 to 160- Durnholde Keep
Is wrong too. Should be: Durnholde Keep (bottom level) 70 to 145 & Durnholde Keep (upper level) 110 to 185 (just 1-2 of these at the same time).
Actually there can spawn up to three 225 lockers in angor, they respawn really fast too.

Q: Where do i start?
A:The first 75 levels of lockpicking are a cakewalk. At lvl 16 you'll be sent on a quest. When you first arrive there you'll find the box in question, surrounded by an arc of smaller boxes. The quest box will be 'red' and therefore unpick-able by you, but fret not, the other boxes will be within your range. Position yourself properly and you should be within range to pick three, maybe four at a time. The respawn time on the boxes is
super low
, so by the time you've finished picking box the first box should have respawned. Continue in this fashion until you reach skill lvl 75-100; they should all have gone gray now.
You probably mean really damn fast. :)
Great guide. Well done!
Comprehensive, and you even included BRD doors in there, hehe easiest part of my LP leveling.
