ABSTRACT:
In a door lock assembly, a lock cylinder is releasably fastened within a lock cylinder housing by means of a catch affixed to the lock cylinder and operatively associated with a structure, such as a lock bolt assembly, within the lock cylinder housing. The catch is released by means of an actuating pin passing from the side edge of the door into the lock cylinder housing for disengaging the catch and allowing the lock cylinder to be removed from its housing. The pin, in a preferred embodiment, is carried within the lock bolt.
