ABSTRACT:
A replacement housing and plug adapted to substitute a key-operated housing, plug and tumblers in an existing tumbler lock without extensive modification of an existing installation in a door, thereby reducing the possibility of mechanical picking of the tumblers which are thereby eliminated. The combination tumblers are disposed for rotation about an axis corresponding to the axis of the substituted plug, and a resiliently urged locking bar is positioned above the tumblers to drop into tumbler engaging position when the proper combination has been obtained, thereby interconnecting a dial member with a lock opening means for transmitted motion from the former to the latter.
