I use DX based Forced Entry for "delicate force" operations such as jimmying windows (and ST for crowbaring a door open without bashing it). It's Lockpick if they manipulating the window lock, and I have them use their better of Carpentry or Mechanics if they're Starglazing (removing a window pane without breaking it).
