ABSTRACT:
A door-lock assembly for an automotive vehicle comprises a key member on a post of the vehicular frame which upon closure of the door slides into a keyway of a keeper on the outer door surface, this key member coacting directly or through the intermediary of a locking fork with a swingable catch controlled by a latch mechanism within the door. A lock housing, containing the latch mechanism, is separated from the keeper by a door panel, the lock housing and the keeper being interconnected by screws passing through the panel. Within the keeper at least one of the screws is surrounded by a stationary sleeve forming the pivot for the catch; the locking fork, if provided, is pivoted on another such sleeve.
