Cylinder Locks

Cylinder locks are a popular type of locking mechanism commonly used in doors, cabinets, and various security applications. They consist of a cylindrical unit, known as the lock cylinder, which contains pins and springs that align with the correct key. When the proper key is inserted, it aligns the pins, allowing the lock to turn and the door or device to be unlocked. Cylinder locks come in various designs, such as pin-tumbler locks, which are the most common, and more advanced options like dimple or wafer locks. They are widely used due to their ease of installation, reliability, and ability to provide a high level of security. Cylinder locks can be found in many types of doors, including residential, commercial, and even automotive applications, offering a versatile and secure locking solution.
