It also connects a number of pins that are spring-loaded to keep the cylinder from turning. When the key is inserted into a lock, the notches in the key force each of the pins to a precise height that matches their positions within the cylinder's housing. When all the pins are in their correct position, they create an straight line, which is known as shear lines, which prevents the cylinder and the bolt from advancing, locking the door.
