Abstract:
An improved surface bolt having a one-piece bolt and, in some embodiments, a one piece channel base in which the bolt is slidably mountable. In some embodiments, the channel base has first and second opposing edges with sidewalls along the edges, and each sidewall has a lip overhanging the base to define a groove or slot. The bolt has first and second opposing edges with ridges that slidably mount within the grooves. The bolt can include a handle extending from a first bolt member surface and a bumper extending from an opposed second bolt member surface and constraining sliding movement of the bolt between fastener heads or other stops extending from the channel base. Some embodiments of the bolt and channel base are made of a lightweight material such as plastic for example; and the bolt and channel base can include scoring, allowing their size to be altered at the score lines.

Claim (Index 1):
An improved surface bolt comprising:\n a one-piece plastic channel having a base with first and second opposing edges, a first sidewall extending along the first edge, and a second sidewall extending along the second edge, the base having an inner surface between the first and second sidewalls, the first sidewall having a lip that overhangs the base and defines a first groove between the base and the lip of the first sidewall, and the second sidewall having a lip that overhangs the base and defines a second groove between the base and the lip of the second sidewall; and a one-piece plastic bolt having first and second opposing edges, a first ridge extending along the first edge and shaped to fit within the first groove, a second ridge extending along the second edge and shaped to fit within the second groove whereby the bolt is slidable along the plastic channel when its ridges are engaged within the first and second grooves, the bolt having an integral handle projecting from a first surface of the bolt, whereby when the bolt sides along the plastic channel with its ridges engaged in the grooves the handle protrudes from the channel.
