A door lock device is worked in cooperate with a latch bolt, a press bar is attached to a door element and engaged with a locking pin and the latch bolt, a housing is attached to a door member, and a block device includes a board engaged into the chamber of the housing and secured to the housing, and the board includes a lever extended from the board for aligning with the locking pin and for selectively engaging with the locking pin and for preventing the locking pin from engaging into the chamber of the housing. The housing includes an opening formed in one side and communicating with the chamber of the housing for allowing the latch bolt to be engaged into the chamber of the housing. The lever of the board is engaged in the opening of the housing.

An actuator-controlled strike comprising a housing disposable within a doorframe and including a cavity for a spring latch and a dead latch of a mortise-type lockset. A keeper is pivotably mounted within the chamber to engage the spring latch. A pivotably mounted kicker cooperates with the keeper. A pivotably mounted dead latch release is supported by the keeper when the spring latch is within the strike. The keeper is released by the actuator and rotates into a position to ramp the spring latch out of the strike, also allowing the dead latch release to release the dead latch into the cavity, allowing the spring latch to be ramped out of the strike. Pivoting the keeper causes the kicker to urge the spring latch onto an exit ramp on a face of the keeper. The dead latch release can be installed in a plurality of different locations in the housing.

A lock having a latch assembly with a bolt head freely movable between an extended position and a retracted position. The latch assembly also includes lock pin that is movable between a locked position and an unlocked position, which may be moveable by a motor and/or biasing mechanism. The lock also has a strike assembly including a strike housing for receiving the bolt head. The strike housing includes a keeper biased to a latched position relative to the bolt head. When the lock pin is in the locked position, the lock pin engages the keeper to hold the keeper in the latched position, and thus the bolt head in the extended position in the strike housing. The lock also includes an access control system for controlling the motor of the lock.

A latch assembly which provides a locking latch that pivots with movement of the handle and also pivots independently of movement of the handle in order to allow closure of the drawer or door without requiring that the handle be actuated to an open position for closure.

A releasable locking mechanism for a refrigerated unit. A latch plate is movable between a position that can be engaged by a deadbolt and a position clear of the deadbolt. The latch plate is moved by a door release accessible from an interior of the refrigerated unit. When the door release is activated, a pin blocks movement of the latch plate so that the refrigerated unit remains unlocked until the pin is reset.

A gate apparatus having an automatically returning gate, an upper latch operated by an upper button, and a lower latch operated by an upper finger handle. Each of the latches must be opened to open the gate. The gate returns without the aid of a spring to a position close to the closed position or to the closed position by the structure of a pivot or hinge connection between the gate and the frame of the gate. Gate tubes are rectangular in section for their entire length. Wood panels are included in the gate and excluded from other portions of the gate apparatus to make the gate stand out to the user seeking to open the gate.

An opposed opening and closing type door structure of a vehicle is provided. The opposed opening and closing type door structure includes a front door and a rear door that are rotatably disposed in the vehicle to be oppositely opened and closed. A center pillar is rotatably disposed in the rear door and an active striker is disposed in the front door. A latch locked with or released from the active striker and is disposed in the center pillar. Accordingly, the weight of the vehicle and the number of parts of the vehicle is reduced and the front door and the rear door are independently opened and closed.

A sliding-door system includes a sliding door, a door frame, and a locking system, wherein in a locked state, a first latch engages in an engagement notch of an anchor body locking the sliding door, and a bolt engages on the anchor body in an engagement region to prevent the anchor body from rotating about a rotational axis. An actuator moves the bolt out of the engagement region to switch the locking system from the locked state into an open state by rotating the anchor body about the rotational axis. A locking system emergency opening function is actuated by applying an emergency activation force to a first door leaf to move a lock substantially perpendicular to a surface of the first door leaf such that the engagement notch is slid out of the engagement region to enable the sliding door to open.

A cabinet having lockable drawers includes a frame and one or more drawers supported by the frame. At least one drawer has a releasable latching mechanism for securing the drawer in a locked position by way of engagement of the releasable latching mechanism engaging with a corresponding portion positioned on the frame.
