ABSTRACT:
A door system for use in a mine stopping comprises a door frame for installation in the stopping to define a doorway, a door hinged to a first side of the door frame for swinging between an open position and a closed position in which the door closes the doorway, and a latch for latching the door in its closed position. The latch comprises a strike which is secured to a second side of the door frame generally opposite the first side and which has a strike plate portion disposed in the doorway in a plane generally perpendicular to the plane of the doorway and spaced from the second side of the door frame thereby to create a void between the strike plate portion and the second side of the doorway. The strike plate portion has a latching aperture therein. A latching bar is mounted on one face of the door for pivotal movement on an axis generally perpendicular to the door between a latching position in which the latching bar is adapted to project through the latching aperture and into the void to latch the door closed, and a release position in which the latching bar is removed from the latching aperture to permit the door to be opened.
