Two lever lock

A two lever lock is a type of mechanical lock that uses two levers to secure a door. Here’s how it works:

The lock has a keyhole on the outside of the door and a latch on the inside. The key is inserted into the keyhole and turned to engage the levers. The levers are typically located within the lock body and are lifted to a certain height by the key. Once the levers are lifted to the correct height, the latch is released, and the door can be opened.

Two lever locks are often used on internal doors, such as bedrooms and closets, and are typically less secure than more complex lock systems. They are relatively simple to install and use, and are often used in situations where a basic level of security is required. However, they are not recommended for exterior doors or high-security areas.

It is important to note that the security level of a two lever lock depends on the quality and strength of the lock itself, as well as the door and door frame that it is installed on. It is recommended to consult with a locksmith or security professional to determine the best lock system for your specific needs.
