An emergency exit door assembly for a vehicle. The door assembly can include a door panel that is movably coupled to the wall of the vehicle. The door panel can have an inner surface and an outer surface. The door panel can be configured for selective movement between a closed position and an open position in which an opening within the wall is exposed. A headboard component can be incorporated into the door panel, and a bed pedestal within the vehicle can be positioned in proximity to the headboard component when the door panel is in a closed position.

A latch and lock assembly for a double door arrangement having a first door and a second door, in use, being pivotally mounted for movement about either a common pivot axis or closely adjacent parallel pivot axis to a door frame. The latch and lock assembly include: a releasably latching mechanism operatively adapted to releasably latch at least one of the first and second doors to the door frame; a releasable connection mechanism operatively adapted to releasably connect the first door to the second door; and an operating system operatively adapted to control both the latching mechanism and the connection mechanism. The operating system includes an electrical drive operable by an electric power source to drive an actuator that operates the releasable latching mechanism, the releasable connection mechanism, or both.

A sliding door lock system comprising a sliding door lock mechanism having a top plate which is fixed to a door frame via two flaps, each comprising a bolt receiving element for fixing the sliding door lock mechanism to the door frame using a fixing element, said top plate being shifted with respect to the door frame so that a cavity is formed, limited by side walls extending between the shifted part of the top plate and the flaps, said sliding door lock system comprising a reinforcement element which is disposed on at least one of the flaps and next to at least one of the side walls, wherein a support wall of the reinforcement element is adapted to support the adjacent side wall of the sliding door lock mechanism so that an outward deformation or a bending can be prevented.

A paddle style handle assembly is provided for an RV, emergency vehicle or utility vehicle door or compartment. The assembly includes a housing and pivotal paddle which form a paddle module. The assembly also includes an ornamental bezel. The paddle module and bezel are compression mounted from the interior and exterior sides of a door panel, respectively, so that the panel is sandwiched between the paddle module and the bezel. The housing includes screw holders with molded flash membranes to hold screws prior to assembly on the door panel. The housing includes pockets formed around the paddle axle for receipt of gaskets to inhibit water infiltration. A counterbalance and a power lock actuator may be provided on the paddle module.

A lock assembly for a closure comprises a housing, a handle and a latch plunger operably connected with the handle. A key lock has a locked and unlocked position. A lock cam is rotatably mounted in the housing and is operably connected with the key lock for rotation therewith. A link is operably connected with the crank arm and a deadbolt lock movably mounted in the housing for shifting between a locked position, wherein the closure is retained in the closed position, and an unlocked position, wherein the closure is free to be shifted between open and closed positions. The deadbolt lock is operably connected with the link to a motor. A computer input device mounted on the exterior portion of the housing is operatively connected with the motor, whereby entry of a preselected code actuates the motor and contemporaneously shifts the deadbolt lock between the locked and unlocked positions.

A novel electronic door lock includes a shell, an outer handle and an elastic sliding tongue arranged in the shell. The elastic sliding tongue is threaded out from a first opening of the shell. The outer handle acts on the elastic sliding tongue to push the elastic sliding tongue back to the shell from the first opening. The shell includes a first clutch device and a limiting member. The first clutch device includes a first motor and a first transmission assembly connected to the first motor in a transmission manner. The first transmission assembly is connected to the limiting member. The first transmission assembly drives the limiting member to move to limit the pushing performed by the outer handle on the elastic sliding tongue.

A lock assembly comprises a housing, a handle, and a latch plunger operably connected with the handle. An exterior key lock and interior lock knob have a locked and unlocked position. A lock cam is rotatably and operably connected with the key lock and interior lock knob for rotation therewith. A crank arm of the lock cam is operatively coupled with a deadbolt lock movably mounted in the housing for shifting between a locked position and an unlocked position. The deadbolt lock is also operably coupled with a motor, wherein a motor cam clutch is operably coupled with the motor and operably interposed between the lock cam and the motor, wherein the motor cam clutch allows rotation of the lock cam between the locked and unlocked positions without rotating the motor cam clutch or a motor shaft of the motor.
