Bank peeks are famous, so this is a discipline check: pre-aim Loan and Electrical every single round, and don't cross open ground toward the building until both are cleared or smoked. If you're dying to Bank spawn peeks in 2026, the problem is the routine, not the knowledge. Use the ranked list below for the exact clips and grades.

Dangerous windows & doors (from the Bank guide)

Loan window and Electrical door

Moderate

The two first-floor A-grade angles. Loan window is the headline peek on the map — a fast window angle onto the attacker approach that has stayed effective for years. Electrical door at A- is its partner on the other flank; together they force attackers to respect both sides of the building from the opening second.

Garage entrance from the basement

Low priority

The basement Garage entrance grades at B- but deserves a mention because of where it comes from — attackers watching the upper windows routinely miss the low angle entirely. It's a situational pick, best used when the enemy team has shown they spawn toward garage side.

The second-floor options

Top square door leads the upper floor at B+, with Left connecter and Stocks windows further down the list at C. On a map this heavily studied, the C-grade angles are mostly known traps — the data above tells you which windows attackers are already pre-aiming.
