Thereof, what is a bolt lock?By definition, a deadbolt lock is “a lock bolt that is moved by turning a knob or key without the action of a spring.” In simple words, it is a lock that can be opened only through a key or knob and cannot be easily battered or bored. how does the inside of a lock work? Basic pin-and-tumbler locks have several spring-loaded pins inside a series of small cylinders. When the right key slides into a pin-and-tumbler lock, the pointed teeth and notches on the blade of the key allow the spring-loaded pins to move up and down until they line up with a track called the shear line. Similarly, can you rekey a bolt lock? Unfortunately you cannot rekey the lock on your toolbox; however we do sell replacement cylinders for just this sort of reason! You can order a replacement cylinder directly from us or through one of our trusted retailers.Can a deadbolt unlock itself?No, a deadbolt doesn’t just unlock itself. Ever. You could also install some hidden cameras pointed towards the door. You can even use a laptop or phone to do that.
