Abstract: A security lock arrangement (10) includes a carrier (40) to be mounted on a wing member. At least one latch bolt (28-34) is displaceably arranged relative to the carrier (40) between a retracted, unlocked position and an extended, locked position. An urging means (60) acts on the at least one latch bolt (28-34) for urging the latch bolt (28-34) to its extended, locked position. A drive means is mounted on the carrier (40) for driving the at least one latch bolt (28-34) at least into its retracted position against the action of the urging means (60). A displacement mechanism is interposed between the drive means and the at least one latch bolt (28-34), the displacement mechanism comprising a cam member (64) rotatably driven by the drive means, the cam member (64) acting on a follower of the at least one latch bolt (28-34), the cam member (64) having a maximum throw when the at least one latch bolt (28-34) is proximate its retracted position.
