 The door is locked by round steel bolts projecting from its four sides. and these in turn are each checked by two dial combination bank locks of the high 1 est class and absolutely unpickab bIe.

The controlling devices that connect l the locks with the main .bolting system of the doors are designed to hold them securely locked, even if all the locks should be blown or otherwise forced from the door.
