safety torx. and depending on how much force you need, you can wedge a flat head in to one side and get it to turn. or if it is really small use a flat head to break the center pin out and use a regular torx or allen wrench. I have some success using a pin punch to first knock the center pin left, then right, then down, then up. Rinse/repeat/etc and it will snap off

Or just buy the socket set. They're cheap enough.

[quote=Neil]I never got the use on restroom doors after most places did away with "pay toilets". What are they afraid of that someone is going to steal the toilet stall doors??? Not steal. Probably just disassemble them as a prank. Try to recall the kind of stuff you used to think was funny back when you were a high school boy, and the reason will start to become clear. It won't stop them, of course. But they WILL have to plan ahead (to have the right tools on hand). And of course, this is the teenage boy's Achille's Heel...

Or just buy the socket set. They're cheap enough. they're all over amazon and even harbor freight has kits I bought my set at Home Depot. I needed it to replace the stripped plastic gear in a meat slicer. What lame brain thought it was a good idea to put tamper resistant screws on a machine that would almost certainly need repaired? Oh wait,.they want you to throw it away and buy a new one. Nope, not happening. I'll keep my eyes open for a used commercial slicer that is built to last for decades of constant use.
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
