This is a spring loaded pin lock like any deadbolt. However, rather than having pins in a single row which can be depressed to varying degrees depending on the height of the teeth on the key, this one has pins in a radial array with set heights. This makes the lock more difficult to pick and easier to customize. This also has 60 pinholes meaning that there are 83.20987 x 10^80 possible null/active pin combinations. This should be treated as a model and not as a functional lock as it has yet to be tested.
