A latchbolt configured for use with a door lock assembly. The door lock assembly is configured for interaction with a strike coupled to a door frame, and operable to place the latchbolt in a locked configuration using the strike to generally prevent rotation of the door and an unlocked configuration to allow rotation of the door. The latchbolt includes a first member and a second member movably coupled to the first member. When the latchbolt is in the locked configuration the second member is movable relative to the first member from a first position to a second position in response to a predetermined force applied to the door.

An electronic door lock for a door having a first side and a second side. The electronic door lock includes an escutcheon including a first aperture. A non-circular spring cage extends through the first aperture, and the spring cage includes a second aperture. A spring cage spindle at least partially extends through the second aperture, and the spring cage spindle extends from the spring cage and includes a third aperture. A key cylinder is received in the third aperture. A handle including a fourth aperture receives the key cylinder and the spring cage spindle, and a fastener is received by the handle. The fastener is configured to couple the handle to the spring cage spindle and inhibit movement of the handle with respect to the spring cage spindle.

An electronic door lock is operable to control access to an access controlled area adjacent the inner side of a door. The door lock includes an outer base, an inner base, a locking mechanism movable between a locked and unlocked position in response to a control signal, and a control circuit disposed within the inner base and operable to generate the control signal in response to the presentation of an input credential. A plurality of different types of credential readers are each selectively attachable and removable from an attachment interface when the outer base is attached to the door to electrically connect the selected one of the plurality of different types of credential readers to the control circuit. The selected credential reader receives data from a user or credential and generates the input credential. A communication module is operable to communicate with a device separate from the electronic door lock.

An electric dogging mechanism for an exit device consisting of slidable plate and armature which are attracted to an electric coil when the coil is energized. The slidable plate is connected to a touch bar mechanism. After the touch bar is depressed, retracting the exit device latch, the coil is energized attracting and holding the armature to the coil, thereby holding the touch bar depressed and the latch retracted by the connection of the slidable plate to the touch bar mechanism.

An hand adjustable trim actuator for use with an exit device is provided. The trim actuator uses an actuator shaft with attached actuator gear to engage one of two sets of gear teeth on a linearly moveable retractor. Actuation of the door lever rotates a spindle which has two tabs, one of which pushes the retractor. The engagement of the retractor gear teeth with the actuator gear causes the actuator gear and actuator shaft to rotate which in turn operates the exit device. The actuator shaft and actuator gear are moveably linearly which permits the actuator gear to be disengaged from the retractor gear teeth. Once disengaged, the actuator gear can be rotated and moved into engagement with the other of the two sets of gear teeth, thereby changing the handing of the trim actuator.

A combination lock/deadbolt is connected to a push-to-open panic-bar device to operate in response to push-bar operation, thereby withdrawing both the push-bar latchbolt and the deadbolt permitting instantaneous and unrestricted egress from a secured area. To maintain the security of the area from unauthorized entry from outside the secured area, a connection between the push-to-open device and the combination lock/deadbolt assembly is implemented with a lost motion connection. The lost motion device, preferably is a flexible cable transmitting force only in tension, assures that any operation of the combination lock/deadbolt will not effect the security provided by the push-to-open device. Further, the push-to-open device may be provided both with a conventional key cylinder lock and a knob, ever, or thumb lever release on the door exterior. Opening action initiated from outside the door through the knob lever or thumb lever release is mechanically segregated from the cable connection to the combination lock/deadbolt, preventing operation of the push-to-open device from the outside causing operation of the combination lock/deadbolt assembly.

An exemplary access control device is configured for mounting to a door and includes a bolt, an actuator, and an indicator. The bolt has an extended position and a retracted position, and includes a front face that is visible when the bolt is extended and the door is in a closed position. The actuator is operable to move the bolt from the extended position to the retracted position. The indicator is positioned on the front face of the bolt such that at least a portion of the indicator is visible when the bolt is extended and the door is in the closed position.

An exemplary closure assembly includes a swinging barrier, a pushbar assembly mounted to a first side of the barrier, a remote trim assembly mounted to a second side of the barrier, and a transmission assembly that extends at least partially through the barrier and couples remote trim assembly and the pushbar assembly. The pushbar assembly includes a latchbolt and a pushbar operable to retract the latchbolt. The remote trim includes a handle that is operably coupled with the latchbolt via the transmission assembly such that the handle is operable to retract the latchbolt. The handle is positioned above the pushbar such that a vertical offset distance is defined therebetween. The offset distance is selected such that a user having a height within a selected range of heights is able to actuate the pushbar assembly, but cannot actuate the trim assembly.
