192.168.1.0/24 allows the IPs from 192.168.1.0 to 192.168.1.255 to access the document. 192.168.1.0/120 should be invalid…

Allow from 192.168.1.0/24 is not working for me, because I have more than 24 IPs in subnet, so I use
Allow from 192.168.1.0/120

You could restrict at DocumentRoot level and then allow only for public directories, but be carefull not to disable valid directories or applications.

Is there an easy way if I have multiple directories to restrict in different location from one rule instead of having all the above rules repeatedly for all directories.
