Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to fireproof door devices and, in particular, a heat-activated thermal door lock pin that non-deformably blocks the door in the door opening. Each thermal pin of the door lock comprises of an oblong standard-pin-size-and-form sleeve blind in one end having a cylindrical locking piston inside. A thermo-reactive heat expandable material is put between the blind end of the sleeve and the piston. The open external end of the pin coincident to the edge of the door leaf is closed with a plastic cap. Door lock pins of such construction do not require additional constructional changes in a door leaf and casing. They are being activated in case of fire exclusively thus eliminating accidental blocking of the door.
