Lukituksella

Lukituksella is a Finnish term-form that refers to the means or method of securing something through locking. It is formed from the noun lukitus, meaning locking or a locking mechanism, together with the adessive suffix -lla, which indicates the means by which an action is performed. In practice, lukituksella translates roughly to “with locking” or “by locking.”

In Finnish grammar, lukituksella is the instrumental/adessive form used to specify how an action is carried out, rather than to denote a standalone concept. It is commonly found in descriptive or technical writing to indicate how security, access control, or synchronization is achieved. The phrase highlights the mechanism used rather than the result of locking.

Contexts for its use include physical security (doors, safes, cabinets), information security and software systems (locking mechanisms used to serialize access or to enforce mutual exclusion), and industrial or logistical settings where equipment or processes are restricted by a locking procedure. In these contexts, lukituksella helps distinguish between different locking methods, such as mechanical versus electronic locking or different layers of access control.

Relation to related terms: lukituksella is derived from lukitus (the act or state of locking), while lukita means “to lock” and lukittu means “locked.” The form lukituksella is primarily a grammatical construction used to describe method, not a separate concept.

Lukituksella is thus a linguistic form used to express the means of securing or restricting access, rather than a distinct technical term with its own independent definition.
