ABSTRACT:
A locking handle for doors, particularly doors of vehicles and industrial equipment, is disclosed. The locking handle is secured to a shaft which activates a door latch upon rotation of the handle. A lock member is held within the locking handle and has a projection which selectively engages an annular projection of an escutcheon secured to the door. In the preferred embodiment the locking handle has an aperture and the lock member is a cylinder having one portion with a diameter greater than the diameter of the aperture and a second portion with a diameter smaller than the diameter of the aperture, the second portion projecting through the aperture. The lock member thus cannot be removed from the handle exterior.
