DOOR APPARATUS AND PARKING APPARATUS EQUIPPED THEREWITH
A door apparatus for closing an access opening and to a parking apparatus equipped therewith. The door apparatus has two vertically aligned guide rails and an inner and an outer door element which are each movably mounted in/on a vertically aligned inner or outer guide of the guide rails. In a closed position, the inner door element is arranged in a first region of the access opening which is situated lower than a second region in which the outer door element is arranged. In an open position, the inner and the outer door element are arranged in a third region of the access opening which is situated higher than the first and the second region. Furthermore, the door apparatus has a locking element and a coupling element.
Lock for Slideable Fenestration
Disclosed herein is a fenestration assembly. The assembly includes a movable sash assembly, a first lock counterpart connected to the movable sash assembly, a fixed sash assembly, a second lock counterpart connected to the fixed sash assembly, and a sill configuration. While the fixed sash assembly is mounted to the sill configuration, and while the movable sash assembly is mounted to the sill configuration at a first height, the movable sash assembly is lockable to the fixed sash assembly. While the fixed sash assembly is mounted to the sill configuration, and while the movable sash assembly is mounted to the sill configuration at a second height, the movable sash assembly is lockable to the fixed sash assembly. While there is an absence of locking between the movable and fixed sash assemblies, the movable sash assembly is movable relative to the sill configuration.

Lock assembly for non-pivotable door
A locking assembly for a non-pivotable door is provided. The locking assembly comprises a spacer plate defining a spacer plate bolt void and a strike plate defining a strike plate bolt void. The spacer plate and strike plate are to be coupled to one another and further fixedly coupled to the non-pivotable door, such that the spacer plate bolt void and the strike plate bolt void are aligned. The locking assembly further comprises a locking mechanism and a housing, which is configured to receive and contain the locking mechanism. The locking mechanism comprises a latch bolt that is moveable between a retracted position within the housing and a deployed position. In the deployed position, the latch bolt extends outwardly from the housing and into each of the spacer plate bolt void and the strike plate bolt void, thereby locking the non-pivotable door to the housing.
Pocket Door System
A pocket door system for inhibiting an animal from passing through a doorway includes a door frame is positioned within a wall. A door unit is slidably positioned within the wall. The door unit is biased into a closed position having the door unit extending across the door frame. Thus, the door unit may inhibit an animal from passing through the door frame. The door unit is selectively urged into an open position. Thus, the door unit facilitates the animal to pass through the door frame.
Lock assembly
A lock assembly comprising: a hand-operable member configured to move laterally relative to a fore-end of the lock assembly; wherein lateral movement of the hand-operable member causes the lock assembly to move between a locked mode and an unlocked mode. A lock assembly comprising: a latch, the latch configured to move rotationally relative to the lock assembly; and a hand-operable member configured to move laterally relative to a fore-end of the lock assembly; wherein the hand-operable member is coupled to the latch such that lateral movement of the hand-operable member drives rotational movement of the latch. Methods of installing a lock assembly, comprising setting a hub of a lock assembly to one of a first unlocked position, a first locked position, a second unlocked position, a second locked position, or a deadlocked position, and installing a cylinder lock for engagement with the hub.

Fenestration automation systems and methods
A fenestration assembly including a panel, a lock assembly coupled to the panel, and an actuation system coupled to the lock assembly. The lock assembly includes a motor, a transmission driven by the motor, a sensing assembly, and a slide assembly that includes a rack member operatively coupled to the motor by the transmission and a drive bracket member that is slidable by the rack member between a locked drive bracket member position and an unlocked drive bracket member position.
Automatic door system, in particular in the form of a sliding door or a telescopic sliding door or a folding door
The invention relates to an automatic door system including a first door leaf of a first door leaf arrangement that can be displaced in the longitudinal direction. A floor-side guide rail arrangement extends in the longitudinal direction and includes a first floor rail arrangement. The at least one first door leaf includes an engagement element which is arranged on an underside of the at least one first door leaf. The at least one first floor rail arrangement includes at least one first floor rail and at least one connection and/or functional element, wherein the at least one connection and/or functional element is arranged on an end side of the at least one first floor rail. The at least one first floor rail includes at least one first guide groove extending in the longitudinal direction. The at least one engagement element of the at least one first door leaf of the at least one first door leaf arrangement is inserted into the at least one first guide groove and is guided in the longitudinal direction by the at least one first guide groove.
Automatic sliding panel deadbolt lock assembly
A sliding panel deadbolt lock assembly that is associated with a sliding panel that transitions between an open position and a closed position relative to a stationary panel that is coupled to the sliding panel. A sliding panel lock assembly includes a pin that transitions between an engaged position and a retracted position. A first magnetic field sensing device is positioned at the retracted position of the pin when the pin is in the retracted position to enable the sliding panel to transition from the closed position. The first magnetic field sensing device detects a magnetic field generated by a first magnetic field generating device positioned on the pin. The first magnetic field sensing device positioned at the retracted position of the pin is aligned with the first magnetic field generating device positioned on the pin when the pin is in the retracted position.
