ABSTRACT:
A lock for a toilet lid comprises a bracket securable to a toilet bowl, and a post mounted to the bracket so as to be swingable to a retracted position away from the bowl against a first spring bias. A locking arm is mounted to the post and is movable relative thereto into a position overlying the toilet lid, in order to prevent the lid from being opened. The locking arm is secured to the post in a manner which prevents the locking arm from being moved out of its overlying relationship with the lid unless the post is in its retracted position. The post can be swung 180 degrees to enable the locking arm to be moved to a stored position.
