ABSTRACT:
A lock assembly of the type mounted on a door or like closure structure and including two lock cylinders each at least partially encased and surrounded by a casing structure each of which has reinforcing means formed thereon so as to prevent collapse or destruction of said casing structure upon receiving an extreme force such as a blow with a hammer or the like. An activating structure is interconnected between a bolt element and each of the lock cylinders such that rotation of either lock cylinder, as by a key, causes at least partial rotation of the activating structure and linear movement of the bolt element into either an extended or retracted position.
