ABSTRACT:
A data cabinet door has a plurality of latch bolts connected by cables to a central actuating plate. When the plate is depressed by a handle to release the bolts it is itself retained in the released position by a lever acting under the bias of a spring, to keep the bolts withdrawn. This lever is connected by a cable to a release plate associated with one of the latches so that when the door is slam-closed the release plate engages an abutment on the cabinet body and pulls the lever to release the plate, which latter springs up once more and permits all the latches to engage.
