The Industrial Revolution: Precision Engineering
The 18th and 19th centuries brought significant advancements in lock technology due to precision engineering and mass production. Key developments included:
Robert Barron's double-acting lever tumbler lock in 1778.
Joseph Bramah's highly complex cylindrical "safety lock" in 1784.
Jeremiah Chubb's detector lock, which indicated tampering attempts, in 1818.
Refinements to the pin tumbler system by Linus Yale Sr. and Jr., leading to the modern cylinder lock with a small, serrated key.
Modern and Digital Age
The 20th century introduced new systems like combination locks and electromagnetic locks. Today, digital technology has further advanced lock systems with:
Electronic keypads and card readers.
Smart locks integrated with home automation for remote control.
Biometric authentication for enhanced security.
The history of large door locks reflects a continuous effort to enhance security, adapting new materials and technologies while building upon ancient principles.

Great item, was a glass jar with contents, well packaged, with a fragile label attached, arrived no problems. A near perfect example of a 50s/60s Hopkin and Williams chemical bottle. The postage was fair, the item was as described and a good value, especially with contents.
