Mechanical locks
Mechanical locks are devices that secure doors or containers by using physical components, such as a key, that operate a mechanism internally. When a correct key is inserted and turned, it aligns internal parts like pins or levers, allowing the lock to open. These locks rely entirely on mechanical parts and do not require electricity or electronics. They are durable, straightforward, and commonly used for doors, safes, and padlocks, offering reliable security without the need for batteries or digital systems.
