How does a key lock work?
Every key has a slightly different profile of raised areas so it fits only the lock it's intended to. When you push the jagged edge of the correct key (5) into the lock, it pushes the pins upward against the force of the springs (6). The further in you push the key, the more pins it lifts.

How do key pins work on a tubular lock?
Key pins are pushed in horizontally on a tubular lock, compared to a standard pin and tumbler that moves key pins vertically. As a result, the plug (holds the key pins) rests in the same cylinder as the bible (holds the driver pins and springs).
How does a push button lock work?
When you push the jagged edge of the correct key (5) into the lock, it pushes the pins upward against the force of the springs (6). The further in you push the key, the more pins it lifts. With the right key in place, the upper pins are all pushed just above the edge of the cylinder so they no longer lock it to its housing.
