Top-of-the-line models will include additional functions like double-locking, dead-locking, resistance to hacksaw and drill attack and resistance to picking.
Tubular Deadbolt – They can be opened from inside by operating the lever unless it has been deadlocked from the outside with a reverse key turn. The latch can be held back by using the snib.
The outside operation is by key, but it can be disabled by the snib button on the inside as a basic deadlock function. A reverse turn of the key should deadlock both the bolt and lever inside.This stops intruders from gaining access via another means and undoing the lock with the inside lever, but also makes it possible to lock someone inside.

Skeleton keys – skeleton keys, or passkeys, are a simple type of key which is meant to open drawers and cabinets. Skeleton keys offer very poor security.

House Keys – there are two types of house keys: house keys for lever locks and house keys for pin tumbler cylinder locks. The difference is in the way they work.

Cylinder lock keys align the pins in the lock with the key and the shear line of the cylinder lock that permits it to rotate,turn the key, and open the lock.
