A gate assembly is formed from a gate attached by hinges to a jamb. A pair of L-shaped brackets are attached to the outer sides of the jamb. The brackets are in turn attached to a pair of gate posts in a barrier. Bolt holes formed in the header section of the jamb receive removable eye bolts that may be used as hoisting points as the jamb is being positioned within a barrier. To maintain the shape of the jamb during such positioning, a removable sill section is included in the base of the jamb. The first upright section of the jamb defines an unobstructed internal channel bounded by input and output portals. A cable may pass though the channel and into the gate by way of the output portal. Window openings in the gate may be fitted with removable window panels containing pickets and infill material. Dual gates may be positioned within an enlarged jamb, and a removable mullion post positioned between the gates and supported by the jamb.

The present disclosure relates to a swing door system, preferably for use with a chiller device or freezer device, including at least one swing door, a mullion and a sealing element. The at least one swing door includes a transparent pane and the sealing element is arranged between the swing door and the mullion in a closed position of the swing door. The mullion is translucent at least in part.

A double egress door frame has a channel-shaped header with upstanding sides connected by a central web. The central web has a first series of slots that are offset to one side of the central web and a second series of slots that are offset toward the opposite side of the central web. Door stops comprise a right elongated channel-shaped member and a left elongated channel-shaped member. The channel-shaped members are attached to the central web of the header by tabs extending from the sides of the channel-shaped members. The tabs engage the slots. Once the tabs have passed through the slots to the opposite side of the central web, the tabs are twisted thereby connecting the channel-shaped members to the central web. A spot weld is used to insure the door stops is permanently locked into position.

A door assembly for selectively interlocking opposing doors each pivotably mounted at a hinge side thereof to a door frame so as to both open and close in the same direction includes a door handle assembly mounted to one door at a latch side thereof opposite the hinge side and carrying a first plurality of magnets, and another door handle assembly mounted to the other door at a latch side thereof opposite the hinge side and carrying a second plurality of magnets. The door handle assemblies are arranged relative to each other with the first and second pluralities of magnets aligned such each aligned pair of the first and second pluralities of magnets have opposite magnetic polarities, and the aligned first and second pluralities of magnets magnetically couple to each other as the door handle assemblies are brought into contact with each other.

A method for aligning a first door and a second door includes steps of: (1) moving the first door and the second door from an opened position toward a closed position; (2) engaging a striker arm with a cam of a follower mechanism; (3) aligning a first mating edge and a second mating edge by moving the cam along a second follower surface of the striker arm; (4) separating the first mating edge from the second mating edge by engaging the cam to an apex of the striker arm; (5) aligning the first mating edge and the second mating edge by moving the cam along a first follower surface of the striker arm; (6) maintaining alignment of the first mating edge and the second mating edge by engaging a convex first rail coupled with a concave second rail; and (7) disengaging the cam from the first follower surface.

A door assembly system including a door assembly frame and a plurality of doors, each door being movably coupled to the door assembly frame. The system further includes an electrically activatable component coupled to the door assembly frame and operatively coupled to at least one door to selectively lock or unlock the at least one door. The door assembly frame is configured to be removably attached to a storage device frame having a plurality of compartments such that each door covers one of the compartments. The electrically activatable component is configured to be operatively connected to a controller coupled to the storage device frame.
