A door panel for use in a residential entryway includes a frame having a first stile, a second stile, a top rail connecting the first stile to the second stile, and a bottom rail connecting the first stile to the second stile. The door panel also includes a pair of opposing skins on respective faces of the frame. The first stile includes a channel along a length thereof on an interior longitudinal surface of the first stile. A cover is attached to the interior longitudinal surface of the first stile to at least partially seal the channel
POSITIVE DUAL-LOCKING LATCH AND METHOD OF USE
A positive dual-locking latch for use in combination with a door and including a latch base; a handle assembly at least partially housed within and translatable relative to the latch base; and a latch assembly mechanically coupled to the handle assembly. The handle assembly includes a handle member at least partially housed within a housing member, with the handle assembly being biased by a handle spring in a direction away from the latch base. The latch assembly includes at least one latch spring and a latch member mechanically coupled to the at least one latch spring. The handle assembly and the latch assembly are operably configured to translate the positive dual-locking latch between a first locked configuration and a second locked configuration when the handle member receives a pushing force, and between the second locked configuration and an unlocked configuration when the handle member receives a pulling force.

Two point lock for bi-fold windows and doors
A two point lock for securing bi-folding windows and doors in which upper and lower shoot bolt arms move in opposite directions from a central lock body upon rotation of a handle. When the arms are in their mutually extended positions, a sliding detent locking member engages the upper shoot bolt arm to secure the window or door in the closed position. The central lock body includes a rotating driver for the shoot bolt arms that is supported at both ends and is maintained in two different positions by interaction with the curved contact faces of a set of biasing pads.

DETACHABLE ACCESSORY AND LATCH FOR SAME
A detachable accessory for a saddle-ride vehicle includes a latching assembly supported on a side plate and having a latch member and handle. The latch member has a hooked latching portion and an elongated portion. The latch member is supported at a fixed pivot on the side plate for rotation between unlatched and latched positions. The handle is supported on the elongated portion and is biased in a first direction so that an end portion of the handle follows the rear edge of the side plate and forms a detent mechanism including a male detent member, a first receptacle to receive the male member to hold the latch member in the unlatched position and a second receptacle to receive the male member to hold the latch member in the latched position. The first receptacle is shallower than the second. A cam surface extends from the first receptacle to the second.

Lock for left or right hand operation
The present disclosure relates to a lock (1) for a door comprising a housing (10) having a circular opening (11) in which a radial protrusion (12) is arranged, and a guide ring (20) arranged in the opening. The guide ring comprises a left locking means (22, 24) and a right locking means (22, 26). The radial protrusion is in a first position of the guide ring located between the left locking means and the right locking means on the guide ring. The guide ring is configured to be rotatable from the first position in a first direction (L) into a left locking position such that the protrusion engages with the left locking means so as to lock the guide ring relative to the housing, and configured to be rotatable from the first position in a second direction (R), opposite the first direction, into a right locking position such that the protrusion engages with the right locking means so as to lock the guide ring relative to the housing. A lock which after arrangement to a door may be configured for left or right hand operation is thereby provided.
