How do the locksmith tools work?

Each tool works in a different way. However, a lock has what are called tumblers inside and each tumbler is set to a different height depending on the grooves of the key that fits it. Locksmith tools push each tumbler up or down depending on which way they need to go, and then when you get to the back, you can use a second tool to turn the key hole and unlock the lock.
