A gate latching system is provided. A gate latching system installed onto a gate hinged to a stationary post for covert, one-handed operation, the gate latching system comprising a latch bar mounted to an interior side of the hinged gate via a plurality of fasteners where a first end of the latch bar rests against the stationary post preventing the gate from opening in an inward direction. The latch bar having a latch affixed next to the first end of the latch bar. An operator lever affixed at a midpoint of the latch bar and a stiff wire connector coupled to the latch and the operator lever and a latch coupling fastened to the stationary post in plane with the latch to optionally couple with the latch.

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 tilt latch system that comprises an actuator movable from a first position to a second position; a lock-out member movable from a retracted position to an extended position upon movement of the actuator from the first position to the second position; and an engagement member movable from an engaged position to a disengaged position upon movement of the actuator from the first position to the second position is provided. The actuator and the engagement member are maintained in the second and disengaged positions, respectively, when the lock-out member is in the extended position. The actuator and the engagement member are automatically biased to the first position and the engaged position, respectively, upon movement of the lock-out member from the extended to the retracted position. The tilt latch system may further comprise a lock-out device and/or be optionally utilized in a modular configuration.

A handle assembly with a body and a handle is disclosed. The handle is rotatably mounted to the body and operatively connected to a cam so that rotation of the handle causes corresponding rotation of the cam. The cam is movable between an activated position and a deactivated position, so that when the cam is in the activated position rotation of the handle causes the cam to rotate and engage a retention device, and when the cam is in the deactivated position rotation of the handle causes the cam to rotate without engaging the retention device. A drawer or door with a handle assembly is also disclosed.
