ABSTRACT:
A panel lock comprises an elongated housing having a generally rectangular shape with a longitudinal and transverse direction. The housing includes a cavity adapted to receive a bolt which is slidably retained for transverse movement within the housing and which projects through a passage or opening in one side of the housing. A push plate is pivotally mounted to opposite sides of the cavity in the housing fand includes a cam surface cooperative with a follower associated with the bolt. Pivotal action of the push plate drives the bolt into and out of engagement with a strike that is external from the housing. A key operated latch is retained within the push plate and cooperatively engages with the housing to latch or release the plate and thereby permit pivotal action of the push plate.
