The restoration of the assistant warden's living quarters, also known as Warden Norton's office in the Shawshank Redemption, was finalized in May of 2017. The intricate restoration process involved the skilled restoration staff's intensive labor for three months. Notice the deteriorated condition of the ceiling and floor, serving as a memory from the reformatory's forgotten history.  

The restoration process required removing and replacing the entire floor, including subframe.  According to the restoration crew's lead craftsman, Bill Sample, the dilapidated ceiling was extracted and repaired. In fact, the entire room was gutted, except for the walls, and restored back to the condition the room was in the day the Shawshank Redemption filming began. Even wood grain was painted in the woodwork by Jeff Bell to match the more expensive style depicted in the movie. 

The Mansfield Reformatory Preservation Society and countless visitors are thankful for the skilled efforts of the Ohio State Reformatory's restoration staff in bringing this deteriorated, collapsing room back to life.

  • هناك عدة انواع من الاقفال على سبيل المثال:
    القفل التوافقي يتكونُ من قرص دائري مرقم يمكن فتحه بإدارة القرص للوصول إلى رقم أو أرقام معينة تختلف من قفل لآخر إذ يعرف صاحب كل قفل أرقام قفله وأحياناً يعرفها غيره. وقرصه مدرج متصل بالريش داخل غطاء القفل. وحين يُدَار القرص لموافقة الأرقام الصحيحة، تصطف الريش الدوارة بانتظام ويفتح المزلاج.
    وتعتبر كل من الأرقام، واتجاه دوران القرص المجموعة التوافقية للقفل. تأمين الخزائن الأرضية وخزائن الحوائط يحدث عادة بالأقفال التوافقية. إلا أن الأقفال التوافقية الرخيصة ليست عالية الأمان لأن اللصوص يمكن أن يفتحوها بسهولة.
    القفل الموقوت نوع من الأقفال التوافقية. من غير الممكن فَتْحُه قبل حلول التوقيت الذي يُضبَط عليه. وهو في الغالب ذو مزلاج أو مزاليج إغلاق آلية تعمل بجهاز توقيت.
    هناك نوعان من الأقفال الموقوتة:
    الأول يُستخدم غالباً في المصارف وخاصة أقبيتها ويتم ضبطه على وقت محدد. ولا يمكن فتحه عن طريق الرقم السري قبل الوقت المحدد مسبقاً.
    الثاني يُدعى بقفل تسجيل الوقت. له عدد من المفاتيح. ويقوم ذاتياً عند فتحه بتسجيل رقم المفتاح ووقت الفتح
