A locking system for securing, within a rectangular frame aperture of a safe, a hinged door having a perimeter and an external side and an internal side and occupying a first vertical plane, the door being configured for suspension on hinges. The locking system comprises a key axle, a disc, a plate. When the key axle is rotated the disc is caused to rotate and the plate slides horizontally to extend a distal end of the plate towards beyond the door perimeter.

A latch mechanism for a vehicle storage box may include a pair of pawls fixed on opposite sides of a coupler and configured to cause inward translation of one pawl in response to actuation at the other pawl, and a sliding element arranged between each of the pawls and the coupler, the sliding element including at least one retention mechanism to fix the pawl to the sliding element and further including a biasing element to compress the pawl to further engage the pawl with the retention mechanism.

A double latch lockset, or its kit form, generally includes first and second retractable latches connected by a drive assembly. The first retractable latch may be activated by a first inside and/or outside actuator, and the second retractable latch may be activated by a second inside and/or outside actuator that activates the second retractable latch (such as a deadbolt) independently of the first retractable latch. Movement of the first inside and/or outside actuator in a first direction simultaneously retracts the first and second retractable latches, and movement of the first inside and/or outside actuator in a second direction locks the second retractable latch. The first inside and outside actuators may be configured to move in the second direction without retracting the first retractable latch.

A locking device includes a first side plate and a first driven screw. The first side plate includes a first moving track with a first driving member extending along the first moving track and a first driven screw includes a first threaded rod; and a first follower mounted to an end of the first threaded rod and coupling with the first driving member. When the first driven screw moves along the first moving track, the first follower is driven to rotate by the first driving member, thereby driving the first threaded rod to rotate along a locking direction or an unlocking direction. An enclosure is further disclosed.
