Abstract (en)

A closure device which is adapted to be mounted on a closing face of a door which is slidable, in a direction parallel to the plane of the door, between open and closed positions with respect to a fixed rectangular frame in which the door is slidably mounted (and having a keeper with a locking formation provided on a fixed vertical frame member which co-operates with the closure device on the closing face), and in which the closure device comprises: an actuator device which is adapted to be mounted on the closing face of the door; an elongate actuator element which is linearly displaceable in a direction generally lengthwise of the closing face, said actuator element being displaceable between an operative position and an inoperative position by operation of the actuator device; and at least one locking element connected to the elongate actuator element and which is movable into and out of engagement with a locking formation on the keeper, upon movement of the elongate actuator element to and from its operative position, said locking element being formed by a locking tang, or being L-shaped or T-shaped in cross section, to engage with the locking formation and to resist forced separation of the closure device and the keeper. <IMAGE>
