Disclosed herein is a panelboard guard assembly configured to restrict access to a panelboard having a cover and a door defined therein, the cover having first and second side edges. The panelboard guard assembly includes overlapping members that are, at least in some implementations, mutually coupled to each other. The panelboard guard assembly further includes an adjustment mechanism that extends between and couples the members together, the adjustment mechanism facilitating adjustment of the distance between the outer ends of the members.

Disclosed are a built-in transfer hinge, a side hung door-window mounted with the built-in transfer hinge, a mounting method thereof, a horizontal pivoting window mounted with the built-in transfer hinge, and a mounting method for a hardware hinge therein. The built-in transfer hinge includes a frame connecting block, a sash connecting block, a hinge body (12), a two-link rod (13), a three-link rod (14), and a clutch rod (15). The two-link rod (13) and the three-link rod (14) are connected to the frame connecting block. One end of the hinge body (12) is connected to the two-link rod (13), the middle of the hinge body (12) is connected to the three-link rod (14), and the other end of the hinge body (12) is connected to the sash connecting block. The clutch rod (15) is connected between the sash connecting block and the three-link rod (14).

A device that can be used as a second line of security to a primary door lock that sounds an alarm to notify the occupants of an unauthorized entry attempt. The device is durable, convenient, lightweight, and has a durable small circular plastic buzzer on an elongated arm/bar of the device, which buzzer stays out of view yet alarms the occupants of intruders as well as provides a sense of security for anyone traveling to hotels, motels, dorms, houses, apartment, schools, daycares or anywhere an extra line of security may be needed.

Hasp protector assembly and method of assembling the same. The hasp protector assembly may include a guard frame that extends from a rotatable end to an opposite fastening end. The rotatable end may be coupled with a door. The hasp protector assembly may also include an anchor bracket coupled with the door. The rotatable end permits the guard frame to rotate to a protective position in which the fastening end can be secured to the anchor bracket. In the protective position, the seal and the hasp locking mechanism are disposed between the guard frame and the door and are visible from opposite sides of the guard frame. The hasp protector assembly may be assembled by securing the anchor bracket and the guard frame to the door and coupling the fastening end to the anchor bracket.

A security tube assembly for securing a door in a closed position includes a mounting plate that is mountable to a wall at a point located adjacent to a door in the wall. A bracket is mountable to the wall on an opposite side of the door with respect to the mounting plate. A tube is pivotally coupled to the mounting plate. The tube is positionable in first position having the tube extending downwardly alongside the door to facilitate the door to be opened or closed. Conversely, the tube is positionable in a second position having the tube extending across the door and having the tube resting in the bracket to inhibit the door from opening.

A door lock for a domestic electrical appliance comprises a movably arranged locking member, which is selectively adjustable into an unlocking position and a locking position and in the unlocking position permits the opening of a closed door of the domestic appliance and in the locking position is in blocking engagement with a blockable component, at least when the door is closed. The blocking engagement causes the closed door to be blocked against opening. The door lock further comprises an electrically controllable actuator for actuating the locking member, and an electrical door detection switch that switches depending on the closing of the door. The doer lock also comprises an electrical auxiliary switch device, which selectively opens or closes an electrical shunt path to the door detection switch depending on the position of the locking member.

A door security device for an out-swing door includes a mounting plate secured to the door, a hinge pin assembly supported by the mounting plate proximate the door outside edge, a clasp swing plate secured to the hinge pin assembly for pivotal movement between unlocked and locked positions, a door frame anchor bolt received in a clasp cut-out of the clasp swing plate captured behind an enlarged anchor bolt head in the locked position in a lowermost position of the clasp swing plate, the clasp swing plate biased by force of gravity to the lowermost position, and the mounting plate having a first receiver top surface at the hinge pin vertical axis, the first receiver top surface defining the uppermost position of the clasp swing plate in an unlocked position parallel to the mounting plate and defining the lowermost position of the clasp swing plate in the unlocked position perpendicular to the mounting plate.

A container is disclosed that has a housing and a lid. The lid has a planar portion and a latch that is freely movable parallel to the planar portion of the lid. The latch has a retention feature and a first reference surface that is perpendicular to the planar portion of the lid. There is a latch mechanism coupled to the housing that has an engagement element configured to engage the retention feature of the latch and a first alignment feature having a first alignment surface. The first alignment feature is configured to laterally displace the latch in a first direction such that the first reference surface aligns with the first alignment surface when the lid is brought together with the housing with the fastener laterally displaced away from the engagement element in a second direction that is opposite to the first direction.

Disclosed are apparatus and corresponding and/or associated methodology for door barricade systems which may be activated from inside an enclosure (or room) while still maintaining controlled serviceability or access to the enclosure from outside of the enclosure. Per some embodiments, bolts passed through a doorframe as a retrofit feature may support an interior plate which has a channel or passage for receipt of a manually removable door block member. The bolts are secured by an exterior plate and custom nuts which have customized drive surfaces. Corresponding custom drive head features interface with the custom nuts for either installation or removal of the door barricade system, even if the door block member is in place. Corresponding hole features on the custom nuts match with custom drive head pin features to provide an effective keyed entrance, which is hardened against forced entry if a person outside the secured room does not have the appropriate custom drive head.
