In a master-keyed lock, some or all of the pin chambers in the lock have three pins in them instead of two. When the key is not in the lock, the pins straddle the shear point, preventing the plug from rotating. The keyway often has protruding ledges that serve to prevent the key pins from falling into the plug, and to make the lock more resistant to picking.}<\/p>\n

Thus each pin line has two shear points, one where the driver and spacer pins meet, and one where the spacer and key pins meet. A master-keyed lock is a variation of the pin tumbler lock that allows the lock to be opened with two (or more) different keys. A dimple lock is a pin tumbler lock where the bitting is located on the side of the key, rather than the top. With a key properly cut and inserted into the groove on the end of the plug, the pins will rise causing them to align exactly at the shear point. These holes contain key pins of various lengths, which are rounded to permit the key to slide over them easily.<\/p>\n
