The lock for a plurality of items of portable personal property includes a plurality of cables extending from a locking box which is mountable to a mounting surface. The items of personal property are mounted to the cables, and at least one end of each cable is secured to one of a plurality of nipples disposed within the box. The locking box has an inner box member and an outer box member which are mateable to form the box; the width of the opposed side walls of both the inner box member and the outer box member are generally equal, so that jimmying, or forced opening of the box is precluded since the free edges of the side walls of the outer box member are contiguous with the fixed planar surface when the assembled box is mounted to the surface.

A cable lock for portable property comprising a rectangular parallelepiped locking box, said locking box having an inner box member and an outer box member, each of said box members having three longitudinal walls and two opposed end walls; the three longitudinal walls of each of said box members consisting of two opposed side longitudinal walls and a middle longitudinal wall, the two opposed side longitudinal walls of each of said box members being spaced apart in registration and straddling the middle longitudinal wall of the respective box member, each longitudinal edge of the middle longitudinal wall being joined to a longitudinal edge of one of the two opposed side longitudinal walls of each box member, the inner box member being slidably engageable with and mateable with the outer box member, so that when said box members are mated and said locking box is integrally assembled, and when the opposed side longitudinal walls of said inner box member are within said outer box member, the middle longitudinal wall of the inner box member is then opposed to the middle longitudinal wall of the outer box member, and each of the opposed side longitudinal walls of the inner box member is contiguous with one of the opposed side longitudinal walls of the outer box member, and said inner box member is mated to and mounted in mirror image relationship within said outer box member; the spacing between opposed side longitudinal walls of the inner box member being less than the spacing between opposed side longitudinal walls of the outer box member, the spacing between opposed end walls of the inner box member being less than the spacing between opposed end walls of the outer box member, so that the inner box member is receivable within the outer box member, the width of the opposed side longitudinal walls of both the inner box member and the outer box member being substantially equal, the middle longitudinal wall of one of the box members being mountable to a fixed mounting surface; means to detachably secure the outer box member to the inner box member; a plurality of openings in said one side longitudinal wall of the inner box member, so that a continuous rectilinear passage is provided into said inner box member; one side longitudinal wall of said outer box member being provided with a plurality of parallel slots juxtaposed with said openings, each of said slots extending from a free edge of said outer box member perpendicularly inwards from said free edge and towards the middle longitudinal wall of said outer box member and terminating short of said middle longitudinal wall; a plurality of flexible cable means, an end of each of said cable means being receivable through one of the slots in said one side longitudinal wall of the outer box member and also through the juxtaposed one of the openings in said one side longitudinal wall of the inner box member; and means to secure at least one end of each of said cable means when extended through the juxtaposed slot and opening, at least one discrete item of portable property being mountable to each of said cable means.
