	The '''Disklock''' (or '''Disklock Pro''') is a [[disc-detainer]] lock made by [[Abloy]]. The Disklock uses between 5 and 11 discs that interface with a [[sidebar]]. The Disklock Pro is a modified version of the standard Disklock that includes a rudimentary disk locking mechanism designed to protect against damage due to turning a not fully inserted key. The Disklock is the first disc-detainer design that allows the key to be turned both directions; previous models only allowed clockwise rotation. The Disklock and Disklock Pro models use an 'I' shaped keyway.		The '''Disklock''' (or '''Disklock Pro''') is a [[Disc_detainer \|disc-detainer]] lock made by [[Abloy]].

The traditional Disklock would allow a key that was inserted halfway to turn the lock, and possibly damage the return bars.

	The Disklock works by using angled bitting cuts on the key to properly rotate discs. The key is inserted and rotated 90°; the angled cuts on the key in rotate the discs in the lock. If all the discs are rotated to the correct position the sidebar can fall into the discs and the [[plug]] can be rotated. Washers are placed between discs to ensure that the key rotates each disc individually. The main advantage of the Disklock is that it can turn in either direction. This is accomplished by disc detainers with one or more true gates on each side of the disc. In locks that do not need to turn both directions ([[cam lock]]s and [[padlock]]s), modified washers can be used to prevent rotation in one direction.

	There are seven positions available for discs (designated 0-6), at 15° increments between 0° and 90°. In an eleven disc lock, there are 40,353,607 (7<sup>9</sup>) theoretical key [[differs]]. Two of the eleven discs are always 0 cuts that control the return bars.		There are seven positions available for discs (designated 0-6), at 15° increments between 0° and 90°.
