Did you know that the use of locks dates back in the year
870, with the first lock and key device discovered in the ruins of Nineveh,
Assyria? Well, back then, the locks were made of wood and only consisted of a
bolt, door fixture and a key. Modern locks have since been made with increased
sophistication and complexity.
