(54) Apparatus for locking a closure


(57) Keepers 1 and 10 are mounted near a jamb of the door, in which jamb the leading edge of the door carrying handle/espagnolette gear is received to lock the door. Using the apparatus embodying the invention, the door can be locked in any one of three additional positions. This provides for the door to be locked open in different ventilating positions without having a sufficient gap between the leading edge of the door and the jamb to permit unauthorised entry. The door is merely slid to the required position and then the espagnolette rods are moved to engage in a desired one of the facing pairs 2, 11, depending on the ventilation gap required.
