Abstract
A lock and cover therefor. The lock has a laterally extending rib on its forward face which wraps around to join a pair of lengthwise ribs extending down each side wall of the lock, forming a T-shaped configuration at each side wall. The cover is constructed from flexible, resilient material which substantially surrounds the forward, rearward, side, and bottom walls of the lock. The inner forward panel of the cover has a laterally extending channel which wraps around to join a pair of lengthwise channels extending downwardly along each inner side panel of the cover for mating with the ribs on the lock. The cover also includes a lengthwise channel on an inner surface thereof extending from an edge of said cover for permitting insertion of a key and retention thereof.
