Skeleton keys – skeleton keys, or passkeys, are a simple kind of key used to open drawers and cabinets. Skeleton keys offer very poor security.

House Keys – house keys come in two different types: house keys for lever locks and house keys for pin tumbler cylinder locks. The difference is in the way these keys function.

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