Abstract
A removable lock for selectively blocking an aperture in a plate-like member includes a stepped housing which receives a cylinder lock. A rotatable blade, operated by the cylinder lock, is spaced from a shoulder defined by the stopped housing to define a single slot for receiving the plate-like member in the unlocked state of the lock. Rotation of the blade to the locked position results in establishment of a pair of diametrically opposed plate-like member receiving slots.
