The first key operated lock was invented in historical Egypt about 2000 B.C. it consisted of a large picket bolt that was fixed to the skin of a gate. Pegs called pins were inserted into the holes and prevented it from being moved. A key raised the pins so the bolt may very well be moved thus opening the gate. Later locks have been developed in accordance with three basic principles – the warded principle, the lever principle and the pin-tumbler principle. The traditional Romans invented the warded principle. The important thing needed to pas a sequence of wards (obstacles) so as to unlock the bolt.Locksmith Scottsdale
