ABSTRACT:
The subject matter of the invention is a checking device for use in hotel refrigerators and other lockable self-service apparatuses. In order to be able to determine simply and quickly whether the apparatuses were opened and, if so, whether any of their contents were removed, an indicator means automatically actuated upon opening of the apparatus is installed in the interior of the apparatus so as to be safeguarded against unauthorized manipulation, the indicator means having an externally visible indicating element. The indicator means may be coupled with the door lock or with the handle of the apparatus and may include a slide which is actuated when the apparatus is opened and mechanically activates the externally visible indicating element.
