ABSTRACT:
A locking mechanism comprising a lock housing mounted in a hinged unit or the like and a bolt mounted to a fixture. The housing has a hole therein for receiving an end of the bolt. The bolt end includes a locking aperture for receiving a shackle of a padlock. The padlock locks around the locking aperture and is then positioned inside housing 20 to protect the padlock from being cut or broken. The novel design of the locking aperture allows the padlock to be selectively positioned in one of three positions, and thus fit within a narrow cavity not much large than the size of the padlock.
