A lock for a door or the like which has a casing and a deadbolt assembly which comprises a bolt and a drive mechanism in the form of a cam of a cylinder lock which is adapted to be operated by a key. The drive mechanism is arranged to drive a coupler which is guided for sliding movement in the casing between a withdrawn position in which the bolt is located substantially wholly within the casing and an extended or thrown position in which a portion of the bolt projects from the casing. A lever in the form of a link is arranged between the coupler and the bolt, the link being pivotally mounted in the casing and provided with first engagement means in the form of a pin which is engageable in a slot in the coupler and second engagement means in the form of a slot which is arranged to engage with a pin on the bolt. The arrangement is such that, when the bolt is in the withdrawn position and the coupler is engaged by the cam to move the bolt to the thrown position, the link is engaged by the coupler and is effective to increase the movement of the bolt relative to the movement of the coupler thereby to increase the throw of the bolt. |
