Multipoint door locking system
Abstract:
A multipoint door lock system for a door having on its edge a deadbolt and a secondary bore is disclosed. The system includes a door frame. A pivotable latch mounted in the door frame has a door-locking tip that enters the secondary bore of the door when the door is closed. Insertion of the deadbolt in a bolt opening of the door frame causes a lever to move from a resting position, displacing a translating member mounted in the door frame to an extended position. A distal end of the translating member enters a recess of the pivotable latch, locking the pivotable latch. The system may include a pair of translating members and a pair of pivotable latches having door-locking tips entering corresponding secondary bores of the door. A combination of the multipoint door lock system with the door is also disclosed.
