Confused about Initial & Maintenance margins

Hello. I'm a Newby. I'm trying to get my head around a few 'techie' margin terms. So sorry if I sound pretty uninformed!

Initial margin - I think that's like saying for every £1 I borrow via the broker, I put up 50p. Is that right?

Also maintenance margin. Is that like a deposit for renting a property? So if I leave the property in a bad way, the broker still has the deposit i.e. if there's a serious drop in the value of my margin account, they've still got protection?

Sorry if these questions sound EXTREMELY basic.! Just starting out.

Thanks

John N, London
