    Default I need help recognising these particular lock parts...

    Hi there

    I am wondering if anyone might be able to help me find out the correct names for these particular antique lock/ key parts from these photos? I refer to the numbers from the images below.

    1. This sprung-loaded tumbler?

    2. This circular skirting around the lock pin? Am I right in thinking that this skirting was to prevent lock picking?

    3. The pierced gating in the lock bolt?

    4. The key wards/ bits?

    Many thanks to anyone that may be able to help
