Abstract:
1. A locking door assembly comprising: a door member mounted to a door frame and moveable between at least an open and closed position; a lock assembly having a central lock member positioned in the door member, and a first actuator member and a second actuator member, each connected to the central lock member and moveable along a vertical axis of extension between a first position and second position, wherein operation of the lock member moves the first and second actuators in opposite vertical directions, each of the first and second actuator members having a receiver; and a first extension bolt and a second extension bolt, each having an elongated body extending along a vertical extension bolt axis, the first extension bolt having a threaded proximal end and a distal end with a projection configured to mate with a first receiver on the door frame for locking the door in position, the second extension bolt having a threaded proximal end and a distal end with a projection configured to mate with a second receiver on the door frame for locking the door in position, wherein the first and second actuators are connected to the first and second extension bolts, respectively, by an intermediate portion with a horizontal length extending generally transverse to said extension bolt axis and defining an extent of separation of each extension bolt axis from each actuator axis and at least an extent of each extension bolt passing through an interior portion of the door member, wherein each intermediate portion comprises an adaptor having a first end with a horizontally-extending projection configured for mating connection to the receiver of the respective actuator, and a second end with internal threading configured for mating securement with the threaded proximal end of the respective extension bolt.
