Bolt Cutter locations in GTA Online's Cayo Perico Heist

Bolt cutters are primarily required to open padlocks silently during the Cayo Perico Heist. It should be noted that if each member wishes to open padlocks independently, they must find one bolt cutter per player, meaning four bolt cutters must be found in one go for all four players to have access to the bolt cutters.

The most favorable strategy for GTA Online players would be to split the duties of looting and to break in between two players. Players should travel in pairs of two. While one breaks the padlocks, the other can loot.
