ABSTRACT:
A lock assembly having special utility for locking sliding doors and the like is disclosed. The lock assembly comprises a cylinder lock having a rotor case and a rotatable rotor disposed therein. The rotor has pin members configured such that upon insertion of an associated key into the rotor, the pin members retract and the rotor is rendered selectively rotatable in the rotor case. A movable runner is coupled to the rotor and a hook member is coupled to the runner such that when the runner is moved from the unlocked position to the locked position, the hook moves into a "deadlock" zone. A driver member is also connected to the runner to aid it in moving from its locked position to the unlocked position and vice versa.
