What is disk tumbler lock?

Disk tumbler lock is a type of lock that uses a rotating disk mechanism to secure a door or other objects. In a disk tumbler lock, a series of disks rotate a set distance when the correct key is inserted into the lock. The disks have slots or notches into which the key's teeth fit, allowing the disks to rotate and unlock the lock. The disks are made of various materials, including brass, aluminum, and plastic, and can be arranged in different configurations depending on the level of security needed. Disk tumbler locks are commonly used in residential and commercial applications and are considered to be one of the most secure types of locks available. However, they can be susceptible to picking or manipulation by experienced criminals.
