Tamper inhibiting device for use with a lock

A tamper inhibiting device for adapting to a lock for a door, the lock having a housing configured to attach to the door and a locking component being receivable in the housing, the housing having a lip extending from an edge of the housing, the tamper inhibiting device comprising:

• a first portion being substantially planar and having a first edge and a second opposing edge between two distal ends, the first portion comprising a first aperture located between the first edge and the second edge, the aperture allowing a latch of the locking component to pass through the first portion when the tamper inhibiting device attaches to the lock, the first portion having an elongate opening between the first and second distal ends wherein the elongate opening is located between the first aperture and the first edge of the first portion, for the lip of the housing to pass through;
• and
• a second portion being substantially planar and extending substantially perpendicular to the first portion from the first edge of the first portion;
• wherein the opening is adjacent the first edge of the first portion such that the lip of the housing juxtaposes the second portion when the tamper inhibiting device attaches to the lock.
