Locks and Keys

The door to my apartment currently features three locks... two of which use the same key. I've always been confounded as to why this setup exists. If someone were to pick the locks on my door, the second lock would be completely redundant if he/she can get through the first.

If anything there should be a Rube Goldberg device that attacks someone if the locks are opened in the wrong order. It wouldn't be failsafe but I would be highly entertained.
