In a locking assembly for a lockable cabinet system, a base supports an electronic lock for locking and unlocking the cabinet. The electronic lock may be releasably attachable to the base at a plurality of spaced apart positions. A one-piece release bar can be connected to an override toggle of the electronic lock. First and second electronic lock override devices may be connected to the release bar for independently overriding electronic actuation of the lock. The electronic lock may be supported on the base such that the electronic lock is separated from the wall of the cavity or the base by a gap. An externally adjustable cam lock can be provided to selectively override the electronic lock. Such cam lock can further inhibit removal of a cover of the locking assembly when locked and allow removal of the cover when unlocked, thereby providing tamper-resistance.

A door having a modular locking system that in embodiments includes a dish which can be arranged on a first side of the door; an actuating lever that can be pivoted in relation to the dish for actuating the locking device that is on the other side of the door; a securing device for arresting the actuating lever on the dish; and a release module that disengages the arresting action; wherein the release module is an extension of the dish.

A latch assembly for use in a storage container is provided, and comprises a bracket having a body, a first side, and a second side, the bracket being releasably secured to the first or the second body component of the storage container. The first side includes a protruding segment. The body includes at least one slot positioned thereon, the bracket being secured to the storage container via a fastener inserted through the at least one slot. The latch assembly also includes a handle secured to the bracket. When the handle is moved in a first direction, the bracket moves from a latched position to an unlatched position where the protruding segment passes through a lock box assembly, and when the handle is moved in a second direction, the bracket moves from an unlatched position to a latched position where the lock box assembly blocks movement of the protruding segment. The latch assembly is used in conjunction with a lock system.

A lock configured to be operated by a key, which includes a key shank, which at least in a part of its axial length includes a profile which is closed or semi-closed to define at least one cavity including a key coding. The lock includes a plug for receiving the key shank. The plug is rotatable with respect to a housing in the unlocked state of the lock and includes a keyway, which is defined by a predetermined geometry. At least one keyway shaping element is provided, which is formed separate from the plug and is fixed to the plug such that it is immovable relative to the plug when the key shank is inserted into the plug. A protruding portion of the at least one keyway shaping element protrudes into the keyway to redefine its geometry.

An interconnection assembly includes a chassis, and cam plates that are rotatably coupled to the chassis to pivot about a plurality of rotational axises. An upper cam plate is operatively coupled to a deadbolt. The upper cam plate has a cam surface. A lower cam plate is rotatably coupled to the chassis to pivot about a second rotational axis. The lower cam plate is operatively coupled to an interior latch bolt handle. The lower cam plate has a cam slot. A linkage bar is rotatably coupled to the chassis to pivot about a pivot axis. The linkage bar has a first linkage portion having a first cam follower configured to operatively engage the cam surface of the upper cam plate and has a second linkage portion having a second cam follower operatively received in the cam slot of the lower cam plate.

Discloses is a lock for releasably locking a first component to a second component. The lock includes a driving assembly, configured to be installed on the first component and including a rotatable cylinder housing; a transmission assembly, including a cylinder core which insertable by a key and is in torque-transmission connection with the driving assembly; and a locking assembly, connected with the transmission assembly and having a first position decoupled from the second component and a second position coupled with the second component, wherein the driving assembly can move relative to the first component and drive the locking assembly by means of the movement to complete the locking, and the locking includes: making the locking assembly move to the second position from the first position and be locked there.

A modular closure device for different closure elements, such as finger levers, plate cylinders, profile cylinders, profile half cylinders, for locking a pivot lever in a recess, is described, wherein the closure elements can be inserted and fastened in a receptacle arranged in the recess or the pivot lever, either from the front or from the rear, characterised in that the closure device, which has an interchangeable insert adapted to the closure device and having a different design for the various receptacles, interacts with a guide in such a way that this can be inserted into the recess or into the pivot lever, and the recess or the pivot lever having the inserted interchangeable insert can be plugged in a door leaf through an opening in the door leaf or the like and can be fastened with a cap.

An adjustable buckle lock has a hook unit, a fixing unit, a wrench unit, an adjustment assembly, and a buckling ring unit. The hook unit can be securely mounted on a first locked object, and the fixing unit can be securely mounted on a second locked object. A pivotal end of the wrench unit is pivotally mounted on the fixing unit. The adjustment assembly is mounted on the wrench unit, and the buckling ring unit is pivotally mounted on the adjustment assembly and selectively hooks on the hook unit. With the moving of the buckling ring unit controlled by the adjustment assembly, the distance between the buckling ring unit and the hook unit is changed, and thus the pulling force for the buckling ring unit hooking on the buckling ring unit is adjusted, which ensures the first locked object and the second locked object are sealed together by a suitable force.

An electronic access system and method utilizes a modular latch system and method. The modular latch system and method include a reader module and latch module. The reader module includes a user interface with one or more readers or devices for receiving input from a user, and sending the input to a controller. The latch module is configured for mounting to a closure that provides access to the secure area. The latch module can be operated in a stand-alone mode while detached from the reader module. Alternatively, the latch module can be releasably engaged to the reader module and operated in an assembled mode. The modular system and method allow for engagement of the reader module to the latch module, disengagement of the reader module from the latch module, and engagement of an alternate reader module to the latch module for retrofitting the reader module with the alternate reader module.

Ratchet lock assemblies for use with various locking actuation members such as, but not limited to, lock cylinders of interchangeable core cylinder types are provided. In one embodiment, a ratchet lock assembly includes a plunger barrel with at least one projection extending therefrom. The at least one projection configured to mate with at least one aperture of a locking bar or strike plate to lock the ratchet lock assembly in place. In another embodiment, a ratchet lock assembly is provided with an anti-shim configuration to prevent unwanted removal of the ratchet lock assembly. The anti-shim ratchet lock assembly includes a driver and cam to lock a member, e.g., a spring, of the ratchet lock assembly to a locking bar or strike plate.
