Abstract

A door lock carries an alarm and battery. The lock includes a tumbler system for cooperating with a serrated key. At the rear end of the key slot are located a pair of switches. One switch is normally open and is closed by the insertion of the key. The other switch is normally closed and includes a mass of iron on the switch wiper to be attracted by a magnet embedded in the key for opening the switch. The alarm, battery and switches are connected in a series circuit to cause the alarm to sound when a nonmagnet-bearing key is inserted in the key slot.
