There’s no doubt that each and every one of us is using back home classical locks (to close a cellar, a storage closet etc.). Classical locks are easy to use and can be very useful in many situations. Mr locksmith Birmingham has several types of locks: cypher lock, warded lock, pin tumbler lock, disk tumbler lock or lever tumbler lock.

With their help, we can secure schools, institutions, containers etc.Being a locksmith, first requires an apprenticeship. Some of them even obtain a diploma or a certificate before starting to work. A top locksmith in Birmingham can specialise in automotive locks, he can be a master key specialist, or a safe technician. Although for a long period of time, a locksmith was making the entire lock, and all its parts, now he takes care more of door closers, frame repairs or electric strikes.

Modern locksmithing manages the implementation and design of control key systems. A Solihull locksmith is also asked to establish the level of security needed at a certain location.The pin tumbler is generally associated with the cylinder locks. This type of lock, contains a cylinder with a plug, which in order to open, it needs to rotate. The plug has a space where the key will be inserted, called the keyway. And vertically, a series of holes are being drilled into the plug, which will contain key pins of different lengths over which the key will slide.

Each key pin has a corresponding driver pin, which is spring loaded.In the moment when the key is inserted into the cylinder, the pins will rise and will align exactly in the point where they are at the same level. This will allow the plug to rotate, and will open the lock. A wrong key won’t align the pins properly, and the plug won’t rotate, preventing the opening of the lock.
