A device for securing a door including a rotatable handle affixed to the door, a rotatable member affixed to the door, a catch, and a protrusion from the rotatable handle that is configured to lift the member when the member is engaged with the catch and the rotatable handle is rotated. A device for securing a door including a member configured to be rotatably attached to the door, a catch configured to be attached to a wall adjacent to the door and to receive the member, and a protrusion configured to be attached to a handle on the door and to lift the member when the member is in a closed position and the handle is rotated. A method for installing a device for securing a door with a handle, the method including affixing a member to the door so that the member can rotate, affixing a catch to a wall adjacent the door, the catch configured to receive the member, and affixing a protrusion to the handle, the protrusion configured to lift the member when the member is engaged with the catch and the handle is rotated.

A closet unit for a vehicle and a threshold assembly for use with a door are provided. The threshold assembly includes a threshold body that is coupleable to a frame of the closet unit with the threshold body including an opening formed therethrough. The threshold assembly further includes a striker component, in which the striker component includes a plate removably coupleable to the threshold body and a cup coupled to and offset from a center of the plate with the cup positionable through the opening of the threshold body. The threshold assembly further includes a fastener to removably couple the plate of the striker component to the threshold body.

A cabinet including a door, a fastener, and a latch bracket is provided. The fastener is extending at least partially through an aperture in the door. The latch bracket is located on an internal surface of a door frame to secure the door to the door frame. A retainer washer is disposed around the fastener and disposed between the latch bracket and the door in order to retain the fastener when in a disengaged position.

A locking device for a switch cabinet, with a lock door and a secondary door, wherein the secondary door, on a vertical outer edge opposite its hinge side, has a U-profile formed on a door leaf of the secondary door with a receptacle for a lock mechanism of the lock door, which receptacle is offset back relative to the door leaf and which is open towards the door leaf, wherein on an outer free profile side of the U-profile, a swivelling lever of a lock of the secondary door is pivotably mounted about an axis of rotation between an open position and a locking position. Furthermore, a corresponding switch cabinet is described.

A locking system for an enclosure, including a control bracket mounted to a door of the enclosure and configured to slide in a longitudinal direction along a guide rod running through a pin bracket of the control bracket. The control bracket further includes a latching pin to secure the door of the enclosure. A handle mechanism has a push rod that causes the control bracket to slide along the longitudinal direction, also causing the latching pin to move into a position that secures the door.

A covering (200) for an opening in a building and a sensor assembly (500) is disclosed. The covering (200) comprises a panel (201) moveable between an open position and a closed position, and to an intermediate position between the open position and the closed position. The sensor assembly (500) is configured to sense the position of a locking member (205) of the covering and to transmit signals indicating the position of locking member (205). Methods of installing a sensor assembly (500) on a covering (200) of an opening of a building are also disclosed.

An improved roller latch bolt that asymmetrically locates the roller within a roller support is presented. The improved design allows for a roller to make contact with a ramp surface of a corresponding strike plate on a sweep side of the plate and allows for the roller support to make contact with the strike plate on a latch side of the plate. The improved roller latch bolt maintains the smooth operation of roller latch bolts while also providing the increased door security and other benefits of non-roller latch bolts.

A tie bar fabricate from extruded or formed polymer material available in bulk rolls, and methods of fabrication for a tie bar assembly. The tie bar is custom cut from the bulk material to any desired length at a window assembly line, and is cut with saddles and apertures that match the locations of window locking points and drive locations to conform with window designs on the fly. Standard locking points and drive pins are fitted onto the tie bar in locations as needed to fit particular configurations, and are slidable in standard c-shaped channels. The polymer material used for the tie bar is flexible and resilient, thereby lending itself to use for rounded window designs, without having any specific preformed length, locking point location, or shape.

Embodiments herein relate to fenestrations, such as windows and doors, exhibiting coastal impact performance. In a first aspect, an impact-resistant fenestration unit can be included having a frame and a bottom sash. The bottom sash can have a bottom rail, a check rail, and opposed stiles and can be configured to pivot inward away from the frame assembly such that the check rail moves away from the frame assembly. A first side bracket can define a cavity to receive a portion of a bolt from a sash tilt bolt assembly. The first side bracket can be mounted on one of the two opposed side jambs at a height corresponding to a position of the check rail when the bottom sash can be in a closed position. The bolt can include a metal inner support member and a polymeric overmold portion. Other embodiments are also included herein.
