ABSTRACT:
A universal lock mount for use with a variety of different types of safe locks. It includes an integral resin structure having a bushing portion and a mounting plate portion. The bushing portion supports lock components, and the mount also includes a retaining cap which is fused to the outer end of the bushing portion to hold the components as an independent assembly. Resin spacing washers minimize wear and provide for smoothness and consistency in the movement of the lock assembly components. Use of the mount permits the lock components to be preassembled, tested and adjusted prior to installation so that the resulting assembly functions as an independent lock element. The universal mount also facilitates security of the safe. Because the assembly is independent of the spindle/driver mechanism used to position its components, removal or destruction of the spindle/driver mechanism does not affect the components supported on the universal mount, and the safe remains locked.
