Abstract
A lock driver for a lock, including a lock cylinder body, an actuation attachment portion and an adapter structure. The lock cylinder body has a front end, a back end opposite the front end and an outer surface. The lock cylinder is positionable and rotatable within a bushing. The actuation attachment portion extends from the front end of the lock cylinder body. The actuation attachment portion includes an attachment interface that is structurally configured for coupling to a user maniuplatable structure. The adapter structure is associated with the back end of the lock cylinder body. The adapter structure is structurally configured to interface with an existing lock structure.

A lock driver for a lock, the lock driver including:
- a lock cylinder body having a front end, a back end opposite the front end and an outer surface, the lock cylinder positionable and movable within a bushing structurally configured to be positioned outside of a housing assembly of a lock;
- an actuation attachment portion extending from the front end of the lock cylinder body, the actuation attachment portion including an attachment interface that is one of user manipulatable and structurally configured for coupling to a user manipulatable structure configured to be within the housing assembly of the lock;
- and
- an adapter structure that is associated with the back end of the lock cylinder body, the adapter structure structurally configured to interface with a lock structure within the bushing.
