Abstract:
A butt hinge pin lock is provided for securing standard butt hinges against tampering, by removal of the hinge pins. The device described herein is attached to the door, in a manner, and location, that interferes with the removal of the hinge pins by unauthorized persons. It consists of a locking member, which is mounted on the door, using two or more tamper resistant bolts, and employs hardware on the inside of the door, that allows the device to be easily removed from the inside of the room, when necessary. No modifications to the hinges are required, and modifications to the door consist only in the drilling of access holes for the mounting hardware of the invention.
