The Twin Combi is a [[pin-tumbler]] lock made by [[ASSA]]. The Combi uses pin-tumblers and a [[sidebar]] to provide two layers of security. The Combi has the first sidebar in the Twin series that requires finger pins be raised and rotated properly.
The TuBAR is a [[sidebar|dual-sidebar]] lock made by [[CompX|CompX Chicago]]. It is distinguished for being one of the few [[cam lock]]s to use a [[sidebar]] without major modifications to the sidebar mechanism. The TuBAR was originally produced by Chicago Lock Co., which has since become CompX Chicago.

Key bumping is a [[covert entry]] technique used to quickly open [[pin-tumbler]] based [[lock]]s. Key bumping uses a modified [[key]] to create a kinetic energy transfer between top and bottom pins in the lock. Essentially, top pins are "bumped" above the [[shear line]], allowing the [[plug]] to rotate.
The 787 is a [[lever]] lock made by [[Fichet]]. The 787 uses 8 or 10 levers and a series of gears that interface with a fence at the rear of the lock. In function, the 787 is a mix of [[lever]], [[combination]], and [[disc-detainer]] lock designs.
