Abstract

A cylinder lock is provided with a contact carrier for the movable contact of a switch in an electrically operated burglar alarm. A spring mounted on the contact carrier and radially projecting from the casing of the lock is stressed by engagement with the wall of the door aperture receiving the lock and biases the contact carrier toward a switch opening position. When it is attempted to pull the lock from the door, the spring pivots the contact carrier and the alarm is energized.
