ABSTRACT:
An improved lock cylinder assembly is mountable in a lock case and includes a lock body having an exterior side wall. The lock cylinder assembly is mountable in the lock case and fixable in a selected position therein by a rotation-blocking side setscrew, and a cylinder-anchoring hidden setscrew. The lock body is formed to include a cavity for the reception of an interchangeable lock core, at least one elongated channel having a longitudinal axis, the central including an opening in the exterior side wall for the reception of the side setscrew, and a bore having a longitudinal axis for the reception of a hidden setscrew. The bore extends between the lock body cavity and the exterior side wall to define an opening in the exterior side wall of the lock body. Each channel opening and the exterior bore opening are situated in circumferentially spaced-apart relation on the exterior side wall of the lock body. Orientation of the bore within the lock body causes the longitudinal bore axis to lie in skewed non-intersecting relation to the longitudinal channel axis. The hidden setscrew is threadably received in the bore and advanceable therethrough to engage lockingly the lock case and thereby anchor the lock cylinder assembly in its mounted position.
