Wikipedia

  1. lever lock

    A lever tumbler lock is a type of lock that uses a set of levers to prevent the bolt from moving in the lock. In the simplest form of these, lifting the tumbler above a certain height will allow the bolt to slide past. The number of levers may vary, but is usually an odd number for a lock that can be opened from each side of the door in order to provide symmetry. A minimum number of levers may be specified to provide an anticipated level of security (see five-lever locks section).

The key is specifically designed to alter the position of the levers inside the lock mechanism, allowing or preventing the bolt from being moved. They are often seen as more secure than traditional pin tumbler locks.
