Abstract
A locking assembly for a dispenser may include a locking component and a barrel. The locking component is movable between (i) a first position configured to lock a cover of the dispenser, and (ii) a second position configured to unlock the cover. The barrel is rotatable between (i) a first barrel position configured to resist movement of the locking component, and (ii) a second barrel position configured to permit movement of the locking component. The barrel defines a barrel opening configured to receive a key or a push button. A dispenser including a dispenser plate and a cover may further include the locking assembly. The dispenser defines an interior closable with the cover. The cover is movably coupled to the dispenser plate. The locking assembly releasably secures the cover to the dispenser plate.
